Cliff notes while Im on lunch break
Met Dagmar at a competition. She was sitting down at breakfast by herself so I decided to join her. You weren’t supposed to approach the judges at events, but I didn’t care. I wanted to train with her. I sat down at her table and started talking to her. She was surprised at first. I told her I wanted to come visit her for lessons and she welcomed me in.
Met 2 couples from Florida at the pool. Both are here with their families for a Christmas getaway with the their kids. One was originally from Argentina, quite pretty, she reminded me of a woman on a show I saw about drug runners and the King Pin was a woman. They lived in Colorado Springs for a bit then moved back down because it’s warmer.
Also met 2 travelers that were going to Mexico, both said they would not go through Texas to get into Mexico. The one was flying, and the other was traveling to Cali to drive in that way. Brian who’s heather’s husband, works in logistics for trucking, he said that too. All about the cartels down there. and his trucking company won’t even cross into the Leon territory, they hand off because it’s so dangerous.
The cartel thing… I don’t get it. If everyone is telling me the Cartels run the show, why wouldn’t they make it safe for tourists? There’s big money to be made in tourism, very big. Those guys are smart enough to smuggle billions of dollars worth of drugs into the country and outsmart the very well trained military at every turn? And they aren’t smart enough to let people come into their areas to buy a ton of shit that they don’t need cause that’s the American way? Something doesn’t smell right in Denmark.
Brian did say they all believed the US gov was in on it. Maybe some sort of trade. Sell your drugs and don’t stop your people? Low birth rates, nobody working businesses. Cheap living and warm weather in Mexico. What would happen if that opened up for travelers? Cheap medications too. A fraction of the price than the sell them in the US. Important ones too like that allergy shot. And the vitamin D!
My mom used to always kid that we were the milk man’s babies.
That followed after I saw these milky white children smothered in suntan lotion. My mom said they used to put the babies in the window sills so they could still get sun and be protected from the cold.
Jaundice also came to mind during that flow. I then remembered she mentioned something about one of us eating too many carrots and turning yellow when we were babies.
I have been eating carrots as snacks but not frequently. Today I had nuts and bacon for breakfast. Just ate an Italian sandwich with mayo and olives for lunch also got me a Fuji water from the camp store. Bottle is no longer wrapped in blue, it’s now clear. The office staff noticed that.
Anyway, Im going to keep interviewing peeps especially when I’m around the Texas border area and see what they say. One of the campgrounds said they had weekly trips into that Leon area. I need to get a good feel for what’s happening. I know the gov fear push is prevalent in everything. But I want to do my investigative research before I commit to…. Hey….
Are you gonna come visit me?
I just remembered some of the bitcoin dreams.
We weren’t on the beach. NM we were for some.
Hmmm.Anyway, not going to think about it. But I have been thinking about that one picture in NM looking at the sun in the hot tub since I just posted that a sec ago.
Im just gonna go back to doing my laps. But, if you even came just for the horse ride in the moonlight that would be awesome. Although in NM we could do both the same day, just like the first picture I posted. We were in the water, but we could hit the beach and horseback ride same day in the Islands too.
Ok im done.
This is my friend Andrea’s dog. She got married yesterday. I haven’t spoken with her yet to see how the wedding went. Called her the night before because I knew she’d be busy.
The pup’s name is Cooper. I found him for her. Her dog had passed away and she went quite awhile without one. Then she started to get the itch again and started going window shopping at the pet stores. Cooper popped up in my FB feed and had just been rescued. Andrea was in Florida at the time, so I sent her pics. He had the prettiest little face. She fell in love. So I told my other friend she was coming back to see him in a couple days. She held onto him and they were in love at first sight 🙂
Q did an excellent job sparking curiosity in people. I’m wondering why the roses on the Dem side didn’t come up with a counter Q equivalent, and all that got served is hate Trump. I can see that it would be easier to spark curiosity in a political party that was already primed for suspicion. And I do know quite a few that were swayed from one side to the other because of it. But, why the hate? Any publicity is good publicity type of thing?
In it together. Hillary’s slogan. Except those guys over there, and whatever she called them.
Preaching tolerance, then telling them to harass them in the streets. Maxine Walters.
Is it just a mean girls club?
It’s not what the roses would want.
Back in 2017 when I thought I was staying in Marlton I decided a cool way to get the town to know me would be to run a Christmas Lights contest. That way I could get all of the people to be registered on my site, and get links to my site from people that talked about it. I did reach out to newspapers and online media so they could add it to their list of Christmas activities. Which they did. So it really was a double win. Got backlinks for SEO and got all their emails and addresses for my marketing reports.
I didn’t want to be the judge so I asked the fire department to do it. This picture was the first year of me announcing the winners on this day 6 years ago.
I ran it for 4 years. What started happening was the fire department guys decided they would pick their own as the winners. Homes were “winning” that in terms of Christmas Lights didn’t measure up to many of the others. I just raised an eyebrow at first when they were picked. One in particular stood out. Then, when I was talking with the winners they were mentioning how they were surprised, and how they weren’t even sure they could enter because they were the secretary or something like that. Got me pretty bummed because I was investing a lot of time and money into making something that could have been really special for the town.
So in 2020 when I bought the cabin I was in a different town. I did run it that year but the next year I told them I had moved and it was too challenging for me to run it from a distance. Which it was because there were a lot of houses I had to visit in a short time, but also a graceful good bye, they all were very understanding.
5 years ago today. The Double Entendre.
Can you at least admit I’m mildly humorous? Even if I don’t know it at the time!
2012
I usually didn’t like most my Xmas gifts. Didn’t fit, not something I’d wear. etc.. Everybody else goes through the same thing, that’s why there are so many returns. So I don’t feel bad about it. I just started asking for gift cards instead of gifts so save the hassle and lines of doing returns. Eventually, that then changed that to wanting nothing from most people. I could buy it for myself. Still want to target making memories from experiences though.
One year, I had a blast with it. I decided instead of getting my sister a gift card to her favorite store, I’d go shopping and by her the ugliest things I could find. So off I went and I got a bunch of boxes worth.
We always opened our Christmas presents on Christmas Eve because our parents left Christmas morning for Florida. We’d have our family party then when everybody left we’d open presents then go to bed. Everyone would exchange a bunch of gifts then us kids would want to take em all back and get what we liked.
One year I got my sister a huge stack of the most hideous clothing money could buy and I gave them all to her with a straight face.
She opened the first box, and gave the nicety, oh thank you!
Second box, her eyes just stared a minute then took it out of the box starred at it again, showed it to the family, said thank you again. Did it a couple of more times and then we got to this long gypsy type of skirt and at that point she couldn’t say anything anymore, she just held it up and hid behind it laughing.My step father started yelling at her that it wasn’t nice and unappreciative. And she and I were in tears cracking up over it.
That was an experience couldn’t buy, but money did.
Which also reminds em of the time you posted the rock star video of the guy in blue launching. That got me so excited I had an image flash of running behind up behind you, I was hugging you. Had the biggest smile on too.
Im kind of in a weird position for me. My friend keeps inviting me to do things and I’m just not in the mood to go. I was invited to go out on a boat and to lunch tomorrow with her friends. Awesome of her to invite me. But, I’d have to rush to get my laps and hot tub time in. Tomorrow is supposed to be the first day we have only part clouds according to the weather and I’d really like to get my tan. Doubt it will be warm enough on the water to wear a suit, the pool is sheltered a bit from the wind. So, I declined the invitation. I will be going to her house for Christmas dinner which was very kind of her to invite me to.
Have a real estate associate who just found out I was in her area. She wants me to come over for a happy hour. She’s reached out to me a few times in the past and is always trying to get me to work her leads for her. I tell her no, I have my own that I can’t work. And have referred her to other resources. She’s one of the lead team agents, top sales person. But, she lives in Florida. How is she a top sales person in NJ? Cause she pays a bunch of money to get leads from Zillow and then has all these agents run around for her and takes 30% of commission from them. Gaming the system, just like Zillow. Same business model, everybody hands are in the purse. The broker, Zillow, and her, the actual agent doing the work gets whatever is left over. Hungry agents do it, but not sure how long they last because they are getting raked over the coals.
Anyway, told her I didn’t have a car. She ignored it and asked me to come to her house. Not thinking it’s worth me paying the money for an Uber to see what she has to say. Part of me is curious though.
Been working on my schedule between San Antonio and Four Corners. Decided I was going to stop at Marfa on my way to El Paso. Saw they had some things about the mysterious lights. Which reminded me of a video of a guy that said they could summon them.
This popped.
But this is the one I saw
The lady I spoke with at the pool a few days ago mentioned that when she got to the states one of the weird things here was that the people she befriended criticized her for having a male best friend. She found that really odd. In Germany it was pretty common place to for guys and gals to be bffs even if they weren’t dating. Why is that the perception here?
I have to say, in my travels I had way more fun with the guys I hung out with than any of the women. We did fun things together. If it was a one on one they usually let me pick and just went with the flow. I had one guy friend that picked our outing and that was because he wanted to take our friend Mark and I out on the boat. That was a fun time. That’s where I got the titanic picture of Mark if you remember it. They did a lot of guy chatting, and they did let me drag them into an aquariums which they did enjoy. We had a bit of round table discussion for where we wanted to eat, and all agreed on the best spot for our virgin cocktails. And that’s another thing, there wasn’t a single time I met up with any of my guys friends in the whole trip that I had an inclination for anything intimate. And that was the weird thing about my one friend that wouldn’t show up because his wife didn’t want him meeting up with women from online. I had known the guys for almost 20 years, gaming on the daily for a lot of years. If I had any interest in him, he would have known it long before now. He was friend zoned when we first met, never a second thought about it. Out of the hundreds of guys I gamed with only dated 3 from the guild, 2 were serious relationships and 1 was just a passing fling.
What’s the deal with the cowardly lions?
That’s another thing, my gaming guild was primarily men. Very few women joined, or lasted. There were only a couple that I did actually like enough to be friendly with. Most I just dismissed from the start. They were usually there for a guy or the guys, not the guild. Attention seekers vs willing to put their game face on and help us be a winning team. Most just became a distraction and drama surfaced a lot surrounding them. The ones that didn’t, were already in a relationship with one of the knights.
And that’s another thing that didn’t happen with me. When I was involved with someone in the guild, most didn’t know about it. When we split, nobody heard a peep. I didn’t join the guild for a guy, and I never left because of one either. They did though. Each of the guys I dated poofed from the guild during our relationship.
I think that’s part of the reason why I get so bummed when things don’t work out with a gal that I’ve befriended. It’s really hard for me to find women that I can discuss a lot of things with. Even if it starts that way, things change where we seem to have very little ability to chat anymore. Maybe cause it’s starts with something in common and then life happens and that’s the cause. I dunno. I do get distracted at times with things going on and lose touch for a bit, but I do come back. Same thing happens to them though. But, I ask a bunch of questions see how things are going, then it’s not reciprocated. They’ll go on on on about their stuff, but pretty disinterested in mine.
Never really had that issue with my guy friends. We could lose touch, sometimes for a years, but when we got back together we were just like we left off. Lot’s of catching up to do on both sides.
You’ve fallen into the cowardly lion category, but for different reasons. I know you have a big heart, and I know you have an amazing brain, not so sure on the bravery part. All the hit and runs and never a full conversation. All the work arounds to keep connected but never fully engaging with me. I ask questions but you never answer them, even with the little stuff.
I have pondered the what if’s the past couple of days. I don’t like to think about the negative side of things cause that makes me sad. I don’t want to believe that you or I, would have me go on a crash course twice. This time is supposed to be magical and creating what a beautiful, loving, and amazing awakening would be. You know when I’ll know it’s real, when you’re physically standing in front of me. You don’t even have to take you’re clothes off.
Though I do have a lot of dreams where they are 😀
One of the places on my list of Colorado stops.
I was thinking it would be pretty cool if you brought your guitar and I could video you playing and singing here, just like your stage pics and my dream where I watched you from a distance. I had another dream where you were playing too. It was in my living room, you were sitting by the fire and I was sitting by your feet. I think it matches the other one better though.
That reminds me of what happened yesterday. A young kid locked himself out of the RV, while his mom was at the pool. The keys were left inside, not sure how that panned out for them yesterday, just heard it / saw them in passing. But it did get me thinking locksmiths were a valuable trade skill to have.
Last summer I got locked out of the RV. Suki locked the doors climbing up on the seat to look out the window. I had stepped outside the RV to chat with a neighbor who wanted me to join her for a walk. I said sure, turned around to get my changed from my pjs, and the doors were locked. We ended up having to call the police to get the door open. They used some sort of jimmy on the door. They really liked Suki.
Found out later my mom kept a spare key hidden on board. Her dogs did the same thing to her. She didn’t tell me about it though till I told her the story. Bit of info I could have used before I left.
Do you think women don’t get along well because they all have an innate desire to be the alpha cat? Or maybe they do get along until they both have desire to be the alpha cat? Is there such a thing? My sister has 3 cats, there’s definitely a pecking order.
Just won a game of Rock Paper Scissors at the hot tub! 2 actually. Guy and his sister came in while I was there. The jets turned off. I was getting a bit over heated so was about to get out and he turned to me and said who’s turning on the jets? Then said, I’ll play you for it. I said, OK. he went one to three, he had rock and I had paper. He said I have to wait till he says shoot. I said ok. 1-2-3 shoot – he did paper I did scissors. He had to get up and turn on the jets. I laughed and turned to his sister and said I was too hot getting out anyway. Why did you have me turn on the jets then if you were getting out? Cause you need to take care of the ladies! His sister laughed and said that’s right! He wasn’t happy about that.
They were from Illinois. His job was to move nuclear waste around. He primarily deposited it in the Yucca Mountain storage site. Was a bit of an odd convo though, he at first said he couldn’t say, then said look on the map around there and you’ll see. Mentioning it in case anything pops up relating. I did look, that’s pretty close to the sequoias and residential areas, looks like any way. Couldn’t tell where the dump was though. Did ask if it’s leaking in the ground, and he said “how would we know” ” could already be”
Just an odd exchange cause he was trying to be coy about it.She was a school teacher, and just happy to be someplace warm for a bit. Seemed very sweet.
I was thinking as he was talking about oil. And if nuclear waste could be turned into it. Then I remembered my friends dream about the oil being brought in from space, that it wasn’t naturally created here.
Another thing that happened that I never understood was when one of them felt off in some way, they’d ask in chat if anybody else felt the same. Headache, sick to their stomach, chest pains, whatever. And then some would chime in and say they did too. I didn’t get it. Why would anyone want to feel bad too? It’s pretty awesome to have common goals and connect that way. Why connect with people feeling bad and everybody sick same time? I’d just respond, nope feeling good!
There was only one time I felt bad and someone else did in chat. Woke up, had the runs and a bit of an upset stomach. Didn’t mention it in the chat, then the girl brought it up an upset stomach and I posted a revolving door cause I was in and out of the bathroom all morning. She laughed. Not really sure what to make of that.
To this day I don’t know her real name.
Another cool thing that Walt did was he really wanted to help heal people through their chakras. He did try to help people and would try to envision manipulating their energy. I did think about trying it out, but then I thought I didn’t want anybody else touching my energy. His a good soul, I wasn’t worried about it. But, mine’s reserved.
This is funny! I love when I say something and it pops out, but this is even better. Both what I just said and your Star Trek thing popped 😀

That reminds me, I keep forgetting to post about the Indians. Been meaning to for awhile now. Remember that place that was the Indian village I visited where shady stuff was going on? The street signs even said so. Well when I went to take a picture of the vendors had an an odd interaction. The young Indian guy was ready to pose with his goods. The older one stopped him and said it was forbidden. I asked why, he said because you take energy out. He was very hung up on their tribe creating it and keeping their energy to themselves. Quite a few of the elders there didn’t allow photography. I snuck the pictures whenever I could though. It’s also a big reason why I take so many. Just in case their a link that comes through and pops out.
You know, that’s another thing I love about you. Willing to share it with everyone. Granted, the way I see is private a lot of things is private (I know their eyes can see regardless), but I think you do a fantastic job conveying it in other ways. One of the smartest guys I ever met! <3
I don’t understand why people learn these things and want to keep it private. I know it’s because of what you said, unsuspecting public. They’d be shell shocked like I was. But I think with the AI things gradually introducing it they’ll have a fantabulous time exploring it all. When the babies are born hopefully they’ll be happy to share and help others in a similar way.
And no, just waking up the pituitary gland is not enough for those that suggest it. That’s why we have so many feeling like outcasts and institutionalized. Tribal secrets need to be exposed in easily digestible bit sized pieces, not in a mean way either. Fun and happy times.
