I do not have control over how you react to me. All I can control is how I react.
I'm doing good. My net detox is on hold, because I can't quit two bad habits simultaneously.
I still think about entries to write nearly everyday, but it feels like I'm feeding off your attention and I don't like that (the tiny attention this poor blog gets).
harrietbrown saved me in a dark deep depression. I'm not exactly sure how I survived it, but she helped. I take meds for it now and go to therapy. Some of the entries were from it and they really were written to be private, but I am too lazy to go through 2000 entries to delete all the bad ones.I've been writing for an audience now for about 20 years, but I have no idea how to manage the fall out from this blog and it seems to be set on easy. I also still can't write well and that's frustrating too, because I want everything to be great, but it's not.
Hope you made Valentines day a good one. I spent the day and night with Tom. We watched Star Trek and went out to eat twice.
Thanks for reading!
PS
Here are the lyrics for the song listed:
"All these impermanent things
Oh how they fool me
Dominate and rule me
They keep me waiting here forever
All these impermanent things
Well their beauty's never aging
But their worthlessness's enraging
You know we all stand alone when we're together
Why keep hanging on
To things that never stay
Things that just keep stringin' us along
From day to day
All these impermanent things
Present yet elusive
Passive yet abusive
Tearing out the heart in utter silence
All these impermanent things
Well they point in all directions
Like secondhand reflections
And they're leading us to subtle shades of violence
Why keep hanging on
To things that never stay
Things that just keep stringin' us along
From day to day
All these impermanent things
Well they're trying to convince me
Baptize my soul and rinse me
Purge my mind of honesty and fire
All these impermanent things
Well they all add up to zero
They make-believe that they're my hero
Then they fill my mind with doubt and false desires
Why keep hanging on
To things that never stay
Things that just keep stringin' us along
From day to day"
