    Hello everyone...! I've done the disappearing act on you guys again but no worries all good. I actually have some good news.

    I've found myself a little job! *cheers* First time waitressing in a steakhouse rest...so I have so much more to worry about, haha - but at least its OTHER stuff.

    Ahh..if anyone is familiar with the tv show, TRUE BLOOD? The lights are low and 'intimate' like in that bar and I feel a little bit like Sookie - and I keep waiting for my very own vampire to walk in. Seeing as Halloween is close I shouldn't be THAT disappointed, right? Bless you if anyone can understand me! And if you can't, sorry...hormones are a funny thing lmao!

    Things seem to be getting on track for me - then in Jan I will be starting my Beauty Therapist course that goes on for a year and bit....and I can't wait to get started! As soon as I graduate I want to get myself on a cruise ship for at least 6 months and get a nice work and holiday all in one...traveling far away from here.

    But yes! PLANS! Finally! I feel free and able to do something for me...I am so happy! But there you go, I wanted to update you guys so no one worries where I ran off too...

    Yay...! lol! Flasky---------> Wooot!

    Love you all, I hope you are all well!

    Flasky!! Our own cheery Flasky with good news, yahh! It's so good to hear your enthusiasm. I hope your dishy vampire walks in soon... keep us posted, you know we want all the latest buzz.

    Wonderful to hear your plans ... you deserve all sorts of great things in your life.

    Love,
    Junebug
    Love Prevails.

    Thank god the conversation didn't go of into Sookie. I used to live in the town Charlaine Harris grew up in, and I still have close friends there. I can't tell you how many hours upon hours I've heard two of the women I work with go on and on abou Bill and Sookie, etc. I've not seen the show, nor read the books, but at this point I don't need to having heard all about it. Nothing against you, flasky. You didn't do it. Congratulations on the new job! Good Luck!

    I like that Otis Spann clip, Carmody. He's from Jackson, MS, my birthplace, and Pinetop's from Belzoni, Mississippi, which I travel to for business. I dig the Professor and Monk, too. Have you ever heard of R.L.Burnside? I use to watch him live in Oxford, MS, at Proud Larry's, a bar/venue in town. One of a kind. Sadly, he died a few years ago. Here is a clip of him from earlier days:

    Uh yeah, I'm a fan. This one, this entire album will stop you in your tracks.

    Recorded in RL's Kitchen:

    and then.....1996:

    It's totally overcast, today in south MS. But, at dawn there were a few minutes when the entire sky of gray turned solid *purple*.

    Gotta love it. I am feeling unreasonably positive today. I hope we can all find an excuse for joy in our respective experience, here and now. I'm Sofa King Happy, for no good reason, and it's great!

    R.L. would tell these great jokes on stage in between songs. There's one album titled, "Well, Well, Well...." that features some of these jokes. He also does his version of Stagger Lee on that album. Anyhow, here's one joke I heard him tell, but I am not sure how its gona go without being verbally enhanced:

    "Me and a buddy were coming across a field one dark, cold night and came upon a barbed wire fence. Just as I get over my buddy leaps over and falls right on top of me. I felt something cold and wet running all over me. I says to my buddy, "That better be yo' blood, and not my bottle of gin!"

    It's wet and rainy here and now, too, PL. Good day for some blues:

    It's Friday! Happy weekend, TO.

    Moon is squaring my ascendant this morning ... I can relate all day long! Am trying to stay in my heart today instead of just in my head.

    Made it through the week of attunement #5 with an acceptable level of emotional conflict and clearing, so I'm good.

    I agree with PL about finding an 'excuse for joy in our respective experience.'

    Love to all.

    ps: it's rainy in northern Alabama too, dark and cold. brrrr

    When I woke up this morning ther was no Internet. If I had known that it was the 28th I might have concluded that it had to do with the end of the Mayan calendar.
    But by 8 am it was back, and everything was back to normal.
    Then went up to my grandson's playschool for a Haloween party. It was situated in a grove of ancient mahogany trees, in the grounds of an equally ancient plantation house. A Montessori school. If anyone is interested I might upload some pics later on.*
    While my grandsons are taking their naps I am reading Rolling Stone magazine which I bought for my son at Miami airport as it had Steve Jobs on the cover.
    Glad to have a village to report to. I was never good at journaling for myself only. The sharing part is what makes the story more real.

    *While there my best reading glasses broke. Another sure sign of the end of the Mayan calendar.

    Here's great synchronicity I had on 10/25/11. I hope it is large enough that it can be seen. It's a receipt for some organic Samuel Smith strawberry beer. The price was $6.66, and the time I bought it was 23:22, or 11:22. Ha!

    Mayan calender or no, something is afoot. It seems, from last nights dream, that the chips have fallen. A little glimpse into me, all my dreams are very lucid, and the majority of the time I have a crystal clear memory of deliberately obscuring them from conscious recollection. Last night *it didn't work*, so I tried fear, and that didn't work either, so I tried recollection/nostalgia, which also didn't work, so then I used sex to distract, and that worked and I came back. About two hours into my work day it started coming back through, hence my opening statement. Last night I did some really heavy working, the heaviest magic I've ever tried to do in order to smooth, to stabilize whatever this was coming down. So, nobody believes anything I say, and that's OK, because I know what I know. I'm not concerned with recognition. I say it here because I love you guys and if nothing happens it don't mean nothing is happening.

    Dang I wish youtube had Black John the Conquerer by Dr. John. I would love to post it for you ladies and gentlemen.

    PL, those who know you have no doubt of your work behind the scenes. We love you too.
    There are many doing the same kind of stuff. Nothing is unique with what I'm doing here. But, thanks. I just see lots of folk too busy making fun to perhaps open up a wee bit to see what might actually be happening....

    Love to all involved. It's not my place to judge, but I wouldn't feel right not mentioning for the benefit of those who are disappointed in the lack of fireworks, today. It's all very real to me, but that's me. To each his own, as it were. I've much reapect for those making fun, as well.
    The above post is either satire or parody.
    It is entirely fictitious.

    Beautiful evening here in Barbados... air is dry and warm and a new moon in the sky
    with the whole disk visible as a faint shimmer.
    Wishing the whole planet could have this lovely climate.
    Played the Blues selection from further up on this page
    to my youngest grandson today, which he responded to nicely.
