This weekend Mr. Smarty Pants celebrated his first Passover Seder with Dr. Pookie, her best friend Dusty and her partner Boston Robin at Dusty's apartment. I looked forward to it but was a bit anxious. Mr. Smarty Pants doesn't visit too many homes. Not that i'm not welcome (most of the time)...but home is sacred ground. And i'll go only if invited (like a vampire...except i'm not a a vampire). And i've never done something like showing up uninvited at a friends house. Just plain improper. But more importantly...Mr. Smarty Pants has great difficulty getting close to people. Probably the result of unfortunate past experiences. My mom called me a "loner" for many years. And i was.
Counterculture offered me the opportunity to be out of place without necessarily feeling out of place. This mostly took place in the 80's...but that's a long and very interesting story. Maybe one day i'll share it...unless i can make some money from it which i know i won't .....so stay tuned and be patient.
So...where was i....ahh...yes. Dr. Pookie and I celebrated my first Seder at her best friends apartment. I took a small tablet to calm myself as i was afraid to become stiff and unintelligable...kinda like a mummy but slightly better dressed. Turns out it wasn't necessary. I had a good time. Dr. Pookie has good friends.
Fear of acceptance by people has brought about a strategy which consists of an avoidance of closeness to them. A defense mechanism. Even at this age of mine....fear of rejection. Hey...everyone needs a purpose. Think of me as David Carradine in the show Kung Fu...quietly entering peoples lives in the midst of some great challenge...interfering in it with no resolve...and then quietly slipping away before they press charges.
Wow..!!!. Passover is intense eh..??? Yall should experience a Seder....might open your eyes up a bit.
For a while while watching "24" as Kiefer Sutherland acted out my alter ego...i was inspired to write an abbreviated "Bio" of my life....it's significant points (high and low)..and some of the things i've learned. Except i haven't broken anyone,s fingers. I have to work on that.
But i realize i must pace myself. Not to mention i'm paying 15 bucks a month to keep this site up so i better save some stuff for later.
In the news...John Bolton. Now this guy should be coaching football...or better yet roller derbies.. but U.S. Rep. to the U. N.? Ok...but if this happens i want Al Sharpton on the Supreme Court.
Tom Delay. First of all the last name of "Delay" does nothing for me. It connotes nothing good. I mean really when has a delay ever been in your favor?. Think about it. I hope he's so far to the right that he falls outta the drivers seat and gets run over by a convoy of trailers. (ummm...exercising freedom of speech).
The local FOX news network did a story that terrorists may be spying on our hospitals. And here i was just worried about administrators. I can't decide which may be worse.
My motorbike needs a fairing. A small windscreen. It was bloody cold this morning. Then again being in some ways a typical guy i'm just looking for the smallest excuse to spend unavailable money for silly reasons. Yet somehow...i shall make it so.
In a way i'm a lot like Howard Hughes...sans the money, bigotry, and obsession with hygiene. Other than that we could be twins....go figger...
