      I don’t get this.  Not at all.

      I’ve actually had more trouble with conversations and getting to know people or be friends with them on twitter than I have ever had my entire life in the real world.

      In my entire trip I’ve only had one shady encounter and that was with an Uber driver and Suki took care of that problem real quick.  Did I tell that story?  Don’t remember if I did.

        My dream started with your robot picture earlier today.  I took your hand and pulled you down off it and we went for a walk.  As we were walking the hallway changed to the hallway of a castle and instead of regular clothes we were wearing victorian style clothing. It was a gold colored hall with a red rug. I had a big frilly belled skirt and you had a frilly shirt under your jacket.  We were laughing and messing around we ended up on the hallway floor.    This part is a bit of a blur the scenes changed a bit fast, but we started having sex and I got up and was crawling on my knees to get a way and you flipped up my frilly skirt and were doing me from behind, then we stood up and you pressed me against the wall and were still doing me from behind, but then we were in the master bedroom and you were on top. Above you I saw what looked like a circular stained glass ceiling and in it was at first a fox that I thought was watching us and then it changed to an owl.

        And it was shaped like that!

          Sounds feasible.

          Gut flora has a symbiotic relationship right?  Antibiotics wipe it out and from what I’ve read have adverse health effects long term.

          Also would explain why fecal transplants transfer traits/memories too.

            I’m thinking there’s probably a lot of gov watchdogs in all these spaces meetings.   “Mutiny” is probably a trigger word

              Once upon a time I believed this.
              Once upon a time I had an inner child who enthusiastically pursued all of it.
              Once upon a time I looked forward to dreaming and imagining.
              Once upon a time I visualized her multiple times a day, and could see the excitement in the scenes play out.

              Am I a hero?
              Everyday I wake ready to start again and hope I don’t get cast down into a pit of despair.
              Some days I win.
              Some days I lose.

              Maybe that makes me a hero.
              Doesn’t make me happy though.
              There’s very few aspects of my life that make me feel that I’m living a happy life.

              I’m making do with what I got.

                It’s blocking generation of the open mouth, at first said it’s inappropriate content.  then I changed the wording and it just made an angry cat or distorted it’s face

                    Making notes cause I can’t get into the mindset of typing everything out

                    – Why is oil traded on the stock market?  It allows for the really big players to monopolize the trades, rake in profits, and screws the little guys

                    – I’ve been trying to post naked lady art when ever it pops.  Sometimes I still feel uncomfortable but then I get mad at the content warnings, and the fact that they allow man ass and/or female degrading posts so I push through it.

                    – I was thinking about the tik Tok post and wondering if it was a deliberate name choice or someone just felt inspired by the collective consciousness.  If it’s being used for bad, we can obviously talk to their roses too, and they wouldn’t want that.  Might have to get more Chinese tags so the network is bigger.

                    – I get really happy when I see some of things we talked about popping up in other people’s feeds.  Makes me pretty excited to think we are having an effect.

                    –  I was thinking about that little bird post and the big wave that covered it.  Sometimes that would happen after I orgasmed and I was get super emotional and just cry, even though I should have been feeling really good.

                    – That reminded me of back when I was with Rich and something different happened.   I got severe, pretty excruciating pain, in the back top of my neck. Would completely ruin the moment for me.   He told his friends about it, one even wrote a song called Orgasm Spasm.  It was a bit embarrassing when I first learned about that, but I got past it.   It was a funny song.

                    – Had a good day yesterday.  Got my RV registered and new plates.  Started with B6 which was pretty funny given the posts you made this weekend about the MTHFR genes and the need for B vitamins

                    – I don’t know the word that stands for but ever since I first read about it years ago I thought m’fer too.

                    –  Can’t spend time working through the Texas reservations yet cause they aren’t 60 days out but I do want to be at the Riverwalk for St. Patty’s day so I can see the water turn green.  I had that planned last year, and that got screwed up because of the situation with the person I was visiting getting sick so I didn’t go, and ended up heading to my other friends place who was expecting me.  Which, I also won’t be doing this year, on either count.

                    –  I would have to say that was a pretty good lesson I learned from my trips.  Whenever I catered it around their schedules at their locations it all got screwed up and I didn’t have a really good time.  I would have been better off at campgrounds in those areas so if they blew me off I wasn’t at their mercy.

                    – It’s weird to me to think people would invite you to come visit and have all these plans laid out for your visit and then do none of it.  And that’s what happened.  So just rolling with my own thing, if they show up to say hello, cool, if not, don’t care.

                    – Hot Springs in Colorado,and Eastern part of Utah are on the agenda. Also want to see Vancouver, thinking I’d have to target that area towards the end of May or beginning of June.  I do have some friends there if I can get get in touch.  Also need to see if there’s a roadtrippers type of app for Canada.  Can’t use the one I have, it’s only for the US.   All of the above have to be timed with the weather a bit, cause I don’t want to hit those places when I need to be pulling out snow boots and winter coats.

                    – Might go west Texas this go round, see what El Paso is like.  Might be a good idea to see if I can spend a month between TX and Southern NM.  I really liked that Truth and Consequences area, loved all the hot springs and bath houses.

                      Expanding but with a twist!  Buyers now suing.

                      Going to have think on this one a bit.  We didn’t have a steering problem in this area, just about every broker listed between 2.5% and 3% for the buy side.  I should correct that, it was literally either one or the other, so commissions were “negotiable”.    Never made such a huge difference that it deterred me personally from showing a home.  (Antitrust? Rico?  Not really up on the legalities of that situation).

                      Only the ones that offered out 1% would piss me off.  Not just because I’d be working at a loss for the time spent with the client, but because they were keeping their 2.5 – 3% for the list side.  Those guys eventually closed down though cause the agents that manually sorted wouldn’t bother sending out those listings and most would only show it if directly requested. Was never a “have you considered this one” type of situation.   They called themselves discount brokers, but the only thing they discounted was buyer’s side commission.   They decided they could offer less in terms of listing services because they charged less.   No flyers, or open houses, made the buyer’s agent prepare the contracts, and you could only reach them during the work week business hours, not sat or sun when everyone was out looking at homes.  The buyer’s agent ended up doing the majority of work for a 1/4 of the pay.

                      As to the case, an interesting thing happens if an agent in most of the companies actually does negotiate their commission, to less than the expected offering, the broker takes it solely out of the agent’s split rather than off the top.

                        Next up are the Texas campgrounds.   That one is gonna take some juggling.  I learned that the encore resort campgrounds have to be made within 60 days of arrival, AND you have to have a 7 day break in between each one.  I could just pick one and schedule for up to 14 days but I did learn last trip that if I don’t like the campground I gotta go.  Good thing with the encore is they don’t penalize if you cancel with at least 24 hours.  So might be winging it a bit in that regard.

                          Started with the pic of you and that dude where you were holding up the peace signs.  Your lips looked really juicy in that pic and I just wanted to kiss them.  That dude was in my spot anyway so he had to go.    We got on a motorcycle and I stratled you and we did it that way for a bit.  The pic changed to the robot pic so I could see your eyes.

                          Then the scene changed and we were in the main control ship of the star ship enterprise.  I was leaning over the controls by the big glass and you were doing me from behind as I was trying to steer the ship to earth.  It was really hard to concentrate though.

                          Then the little wiz walked in the room on the high platform and started playing with the controls.  All these strings came out and attached to us.  Then he started bouncing me all around you but not letting me get to you.  He was getting a big kick out of it too.  Then I broke free and he started pulling you back and forth.

                          That ended when we left and went into this private vacuum sealed room.  I was back on top and you were laying on your back, even though we were floating.  Then the strings appeared and wrapped around us, like how a cast would be made, and we came when we were all wrapped up.

                                Got my reservations made for South Padre Island.  They had one spot available 🙂

                                So right now I’m working through the transit timing.  I planned for 4 days but that’s a lot of driving.  Thinking I should give me and the pups a break at the top.   Targeting Baton Rouge area for a day of rest.  The dogs get a bit anxious when driving to long, Chloe doesn’t rest at all.  She stays awake the whole time.  So might do us well to make it 5 days.

                                    In between Jacksonville and Marco Island I’m going to stop at the campground in Kissimmee.  Feeling like I want to go to Epcot.  Fits in with some of the posts today 🙂   Also going to visit with my friend that lives in that area.  He wants to do a podcast it sounds like.  He asked if he could interview me for it, he said my journey is relevant to what he wants to discuss.  So that should be fun.

                                    Also gonna find something fun for us to do.  Right now Im thinking medieval times.  I took him with me on a sequel tour to the gardens last time.  We had a lot of fun.  That’s where the quest to find the missing N began!    He’s still struggling quite a bit.  Told me last night he still doesn’t have hot water at his place yet.  Hmm.  The campground I’m staying at has a hot tub too.  The pool area might be perfect place for an interview!

                                      Changing up my plans for going north in Florida.  Last year, January in the northern part of FL was pretty cold.  So swimming if it’s in the 50’s is out.  So my thinking now is I’m going to hit the Fort Myers area, make a quick stop in Sarasota and hopefully see a friend of mine, then just loop around and down to south Texas.  Still can’t schedule my beach ride in Florida, but!  found a moonlight ride in TX on the beach 😀

                                      I want to stay where it’s warm.  Cold nights are a bit ruff in RV, tonight its going down to 28.  So I gotta get all the heaters running so nothing freezes.

                                      The loop over should take me 20 hrs drive time, if I drive about 5 hours a day that’s 4 days minimum.   So Im currently working out the 5 hour markets and finding places to stay in those areas.

                                        Also something funny happened while I was trying to work through my stops.   When I was first trying to schedule my stay near the horseback riding place in FL, the campground I picked showed availability.   Then I went back to to schedule it and it blocked me out.  I was thinking at the time I was going to have around 4 stops going north.

                                        Then as I was roaming around today, I decided the cold sucks and I don’t want to stay there.  And I remembered January last year in northern FL and that’s when I changed my mind to just go to TX.

                                        So now Im hunting down my stop overs for my new destination.

                                          Sarasota is up next.  Making that reservation today.  Was thinking of staying a couple days, now it gets one.

                                          I remembered what happened with that friend last time yesterday.  We had a day planned together, hadn’t seen her since I was in my 20’s.  She moved to Florida, and I didn’t go anywhere, literally.

                                          The morning of our planned day she cancelled.   That was the day I went roaming around that town and met the fisherman out on the dock and fed the seagulls the fish from the net.

                                          I was going to stay a couple days but yesterday she said to text her the week before.   So that got dropped to 1 day.    I have museums I want to see there.  Im picking a campground that has a restaurant.  She can meet me there for dinner before I leave for TX or not.  Not planning my trip around her this time.

                                            This is the campground I picked for Sarasota.  I’m sure I would love a few days there, pool, hot tub, nature trails and a restaurant.  Wouldn’t even have to leave 🙂  Maybe next year I’ll mix it in if I end up going to Florida

                                              As of today, got everything scheduled until the Jan 11th.  Last 5 days filled in.  Got space in what looks like a nice campground as a hold over till I got into the Keys.  Then got a place in Key Largo for a few days.

                                              Now I gotta start working on my trip north.

                                                  Had an incident with Chloe yesterday.  Both back legs gave out.  It was a pretty upsetting situation. I had to pick her up and try to get her back on her feet.   She, suki, and my mom’s dog Bandit were all running around together.  Chloe can run just fine, the gait for the walk is what messes her up.   There’s nothing wrong with her outside of the leg issue, seems happy and healthy.  Does sleep a lot, but that’s expected for a dog her age.   After the runs though her legs seem worse than if I let her just walk around for bit.  I do hope the braces get in soon though cause she loves to run with Suki.  I’d also like to get used to using them before we get on the road too.   Got a ramp to try to help her get in and out of the RV.

                                                    I mentioned before my grandmother had 5 children.  Prior to that, she was pregnant with 4 others but lost them.  2 of which were twins who she carried to pretty late term, Mike and Ike.  She supposedly named them after radio show hosts she enjoyed.

                                                    When we were young we were told that twins run every other generation. I thought it would be awesome to have twins when I actually had kids.  None of the 5 had twins.  Of the cousins,  1 was pregnant with twins, but she lost them.

                                                    The eggplant reminded me of the dream I had right before I left for the shore last year about the eggs being connected.

                                                      And that brings up another point, people keep feeding and seeding the grid with the wrong stuff.

                                                      It takes a village.

                                                      I keep imagining how awesome it would be if groups of us could meet up at different locations and all work together as a team.  Help with the kids so the parents get a break or a nice date night together, others with different skills could help with maintenance and repairs of their vehicles.  All can enjoy some group sight seeing trips when possible.  Being able to share campfire stories, imagine the impact the “elders”  could have on both the kids and parents. You know how fun that would be?

                                                      That too isn’t reflected in real life much.  Very few communities work with each other to help each other.  So many barely even know their neighbors name.   Both parents working, hardly have time for their own kids, let alone making a community effort to support each other.

                                                      Soul families are discussed a lot, but outside of sharing posts how has that manifested in real life?   I’ve only seen a few instances of it, and it was for short gatherings.    Not saying it has to be permanent situation either, because everyone has their own stepping stones in their journeys that might take them to all kinds of different places.  But from my own experiences,  I needed break time to recoup, repair, and have some down time.
