R.I.P angel..

R.I.P angel..

So last night, 3 am I'm still up doing some finishing touches on a paper for Monday after working on it for about 12 straight hours. All the sudden I hear a loud noise outside on my deck, cat gets startled and gives the door the evil eye. I go open it and here's this girl I've never seen before standing/swaying there and she proceeds to try to walk into my place.. I put my hand up and I say, "whoa.. where are you going?" She says, "I'm looking for Kelly". I say "no Kelly lives here". She again tries to walk in and I say, "what are you doing?". "Is Kelly in there, or Shelly?" I say, "no, no Kelly lives here, just me. You got the wrong place.Who are you looking for?" "Kelly, or Shelly or something, are you sure she's not in there?" "Yep, quite sure, who are you looking for, where do they live?" "I'm looking for Kelly or Shelly", then mumbles something about "good weed." I say again, "nope, you got the wrong place. Where does she live?" "I don't know. Can I come in and use your bathroom?" "Nope, I'm not letting you in." I proceed to start to go back inside and see her go to the edge of the steps, lean against the rail and bury her face in her hands and start crying. I noticed she's only wearing a sweatshirt and it does still get quite cold at night and she looked like she took a spill or two at some point as she had some scrapes on her hands and dirt on her sweatshirt. So I say.."Are you ok? Do you need some help? I can give you a ride if you need one?" More crying.. So I go out and put my arm around her and ask her again if she's ok.. She's not really talking coherently at this point so I say.. "Come on, let's go inside, it'll be ok. I can help you, you can use the bathroom. I'll get you home." She then turns and damn near goes off the steps backwards and I catch her and pull her up and help her inside. She's still crying and once in the door I'm trying to ask her name and stuff and she mumbles, "I don't know you." I chuckle and say, "no, you don't know me, My name is -----. What's yours?" More crying, so I give her a hug and to try to get some answers from her assuring her that it'll be ok.. Her cell then starts ringing and she answers it and mumbles a bit and hands me the phone.. "Hi, who's this?"... "This is Kelly".. Hahahaha.. I say, "Your friend is here, do you live in the Park?" "I do", she says.. So I tell her where I am and she comes right over and tells me they live together on the next street and moved in a about a month ago.. she tells me her name, the late night visitor, is Shelly. I laugh and tell her what happened and asked if they got in a fight or something.. "Yeah, we did. Not really a fight but she left mad. She got mad at this other girl at the bar tonight." Meanwhile, Shelly is a puddle in a chair and starts to look rather nauseous and Kelly says, "don't worry, she doesn't puke" Hahahaha.. yeah, right. I say, you're gonna have trouble getting her home but I can help you. I help Shelly to the floor and grab a bucket and spend the next hour and half helping her, "not puke" with her friend Kelly, and getting to know them. She tells me Shelly had Chron's Disease, which is a nasty infection of unknown causes in the G.I. tract so I ask if she has a stoma, and she says she did. Basically, it's a hole in the abdomin where they bring the intestine to the surface with which to attach a colostomy bag to deficate in as that disease pretty much destroys the bowel.. Poor girl. I thought she was only like 23 or so but Kelly told me she was 37.. Must be tough to adjust to something like that. Finally when she stops dry heaving a bit, we help her up and carry her out to Kelly's car and I go with to help her bring her inside.. So we get there, and she's trying to put her shoes on and I'm telling her, "you don't need them, I'm gonna carry you." So she throws her arm around me and I pick her up like a new bride and carry her over the thresh hold and she says.. "right there, right there", pointing to the couch. So I bring her over and set her down and she pulls me down and gives me a huge kiss on the face. hahaha.. I say, "you're welcome." Then I told Kelly to watch her and not to hesitate to call an ambulance if need be, and told them, "stop over some time." hahaha Now it's 5 am, I walk a block home laughing.. fun. How was your night? Hahahaha.. life is funny.. She's damn lucky, had she passed out, outside, she would not have lasted the night.. Also, another booze horror story.. Hahahaha I was just thinking how glad I am I didn't need to clean her colostomy bag for her.. I just practiced doing it a few weeks ago, but that was chocolate pudding.

Sounds like a fantastic idea... The two parties will, like always, do everything in their "power" to make sure that doesn't happen though. It's up to us. We have free will and can do anything we put our minds too. I made an oath to myself years ago to never vote for a dem or republican again.. For pres anyways. And I'm sticking to it..

I know that it's time for a cool change Now that my life is so pre-arranged I know that it's time for a cool change Well I was born in the sign of water And it's there that I feel my best The albatross and the whales they are my brothers It's kind of a special feeling When you're out on the sea alone Starin' at the full moon like a lover Time for a cool change... I know that it's time for a cool change Now that my life is so prearranged I know that it's time for a cool change Well I've never been romantic And sometimes I don't care I know it may sound selfish But let me breathe the air If there's one thing in my life that's missing It's the time that I spend alone Sailing on the cool and bright clear waters It's kind of a special feeling When you're out on the sea alone Staring at the full moon like a lover Time for a cool change...

Feel it, feel it? Hey everybody yeah, don't you feel that there's something? People on their own are getting nowhere, I am on the road to see, If anything is anywhere and waiting, just for me. Everynight I walk around the city. Seems like I'll never know, That feeling of being together when I go. And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going, And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going. Hey everybody, don't you feel that there's something, but you know in a moment it is gone. I live for the day when I can hear people saying that they know and they care for everyone But I feel like I've been here for the whole of my life, never knowing home. It's a long way. It's a long, long, long way there, I'm gonna keep on tryin', I'm gonna keep on tryin', yeah, I'm gonna keep on tryin', I'm gonna keep on tryin', ah! Been away from home for such a long time, And got to know this town, But I don't seem to matter much to anyone, who's around Is there anybody around? Everynight I walk around the city, Seems like I'll never know, The feeling of being together when I go. And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going, And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going.

We wandered through the days like they had no end. But now that you are gone I'm under cover. I just can't think about you as a friend. Chorus: Take it easy on me. It should be easy to see. I'm getting lost in a crowd. Hear me crying out loud. Just want you to know. I know that you have to go. It's all up to you but whatever you do, take it easy on me. So now I'll go the minstrel road without. I know there will be times when I need you there. And each night as I sing those songs about you. I'll think back to the time when you used to care. (Repeat Chorus) Take it easy on me. Oh baby don't leave me crying. It should be easy to see. I've needed you for so long. Just one more chance with you. One more chance will you, take chance? Come on and take a chance. (Repeat Chorus) It's still up to you but whatever you do ... Take it easy on me.

Lady Little River Band [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyZwy144d0Y]YouTube - Little River Band - Lady LIVE with John Farnham[/ame] Cool Change Little River Band If there's one thing in my life that's missing It's the time I spend alone Sailing on the cool and bright clear waters There's lots of those friendly people Showin me ways to go And I never want to lose your inspiration Time for a cool change... I know that it's time for a cool change Now that my life is so pre-arranged I know that it's time for a cool change Well I was born in the sign of water And it's there that I feel my best The albatross and the whales they are my brothers It's kind of a special feeling When you're out on the sea alone Starin' at the full moon like a lover Time for a cool change... I know that it's time for a cool change Now that my life is so prearranged I know that it's time for a cool change Well I've never been romantic And sometimes I don't care I know it may sound selfish But let me breathe the air If there's one thing in my life that's missing It's the time that I spend alone Sailing on the cool and bright clear waters It's kind of a special feeling When you're out on the sea alone Staring at the full moon like a lover Time for a cool change... I know that it's time for a cool change Now that my life is so prearranged I know that it's time for a cool change [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAXwFs7uQY4]YouTube - Little River Band - Cool Change LIVE with John Farnham[/ame] It's a Long Way There Little River Band Hey everybody yeah, don't you feel that there's something? Feel it, feel it? Hey everybody yeah, don't you feel that there's something? People on their own are getting nowhere, I am on the road to see, If anything is anywhere and waiting, just for me. Everynight I walk around the city. Seems like I'll never know, That feeling of being together when I go. And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going, And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going. Hey everybody, don't you feel that there's something, but you know in a moment it is gone. I live for the day when I can hear people saying that they know and they care for everyone But I feel like I've been here for the whole of my life, never knowing home. It's a long way. It's a long, long, long way there, I'm gonna keep on tryin', I'm gonna keep on tryin', yeah, I'm gonna keep on tryin', I'm gonna keep on tryin', ah! Been away from home for such a long time, And got to know this town, But I don't seem to matter much to anyone, who's around Is there anybody around? Everynight I walk around the city, Seems like I'll never know, The feeling of being together when I go. And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going, And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going.

We wandered through the days like they had no end. But now that you are gone I'm under cover. I just can't think about you as a friend. Chorus: Take it easy on me. It should be easy to see. I'm getting lost in a crowd. Hear me crying out loud. Just want you to know. I know that you have to go. It's all up to you but whatever you do, take it easy on me.

I wish to Christ Jesse Ventura was running for prez.. So tired of the same old crap I could puke.

I wish to Christ Jesse Ventura was running for prez.. So tired of the same old crap I could puke.

Excellent quote Salt.. a goal to constantly strive for. It is a puzzling thing. The truth knocks on the door and you say, "Go away, I'm looking for the truth," and so it goes away. Puzzling. ~Robert M. Pirsig Why should we honour those that die upon the field of battle? A man may show as reckless a courage in entering into the abyss of himself. ~William Butler Yeats To dare to live alone is the rarest courage; since there are many who had rather meet their bitterest enemy in the field, than their own hearts in their closet. ~Charles Caleb Colton, Lacon, 1825 If you resist reading what you disagree with, how will you ever acquire deeper insights into what you believe? The things most worth reading are precisely those that challenge our convictions. ~Author Unknown The difficult part in an argument is not to defend one's opinion but rather to know it. ~Andr? Maurois Man cannot remake himself without suffering, for he is both the marble and the sculptor. ~Dr. Alexis Carrel Resolve to be thyself; and know that he who finds himself, loses his misery. ~Matthew Arnold, "Self-Dependence," Empedocles on Etna, and Other Poems, 1852 People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates. ~Thomas Szasz, "Personal Conduct," The Second Sin, 1973 You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself. ~Alan Alda The greatest explorer on this earth never takes voyages as long as those of the man who descends to the depth of his heart. ~Julien Green There came a time when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. ~Ana?s Nin All men should strive to learn before they die what they are running from, and to, and why. ~James Thurber If you don't get lost, there's a chance you may never be found. ~Author Unknown If in the last few years you haven't discarded a major opinion or acquired a new one, check your pulse. You may be dead. ~Gelett Burgess It is only when we silent the blaring sounds of our daily existence that we can finally hear the whispers of truth that life reveals to us, as it stands knocking on the doorsteps of our hearts. ~K.T. Jong Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves. ~Henry David Thoreau Every one of us has in him a continent of undiscovered character. Blessed is he who acts the Columbus to his own soul. ~Author Unknown There's a period of life when we swallow a knowledge of ourselves and it becomes either good or sour inside. ~Pearl Bailey He who knows others is learned; He who knows himself is wise. ~Lao-tzu, Tao te Ching We run away all the time to avoid coming face to face with ourselves. ~Author Unknown Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it. ~Buddha Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen carefully. ~Littlefoot's mother, Land Before Time When your heart speaks, take good notes. ~Judith Campbell If a man happens to find himself, he has a mansion which he can inhabit with dignity all the days of his life. ~James A. Michener In order to judge properly, one must get away somewhat from what one is judging, after having loved it. This is true of countries, of persons, and of oneself. ~Andr? Gide For souls in growth, great quarrels are great emancipators. ~Logan Pearsall Smith Truth hurts - not the searching after; the running from! ~John Eyberg

Makes sense.. the dollar was the standard for so long.. I hope we can get someone in office to stop printing money.. been going backwards to cater to the rich on Wall Street.. They are gonna have a fall sooner or later no matter what the fed does. Why keep trashing the dollar? Makes no sense to me.. Like I always say.. they are their own worst enemy and will destroy themselves. Just wish they didn't have to take me and everyone else along for the ride.. Sorry, I missed that one.. I didn't read the whole thread..

I see.. Be hard to stay abreast of candidates though.. I'm curious, what's the news like over there? How is the US portrayed these days?

I see.. That's nice. They must send you the forms to fill out.. Just federal I would imagine or can you still do State and be a citizen of one if you live abroad?

I was gonna ask you.. How do you vote? Send it mail or do embassy's handle it for you?
