Three AM

Why not marry a man from St. Lucia?
She must have had some adverse experiences.

Anyway, love is so fragile, and harsh at the same time, and one must calibrate the place and motive with capacity and ego at the same time . And then a certain level will develop, gauging the commitment from manageable and corrective all the way to inescapably and dreadfully compelling for a lifetim-------

—following day----------





---------------------------------------------------------------'backtracking back to future- August 14 ~ Santa Catalina . got here me a kuli, its only a few days here. and the little tyke, Ayden his mom my daughter and my other half. I tell her look it here, already, have had a bad beginning. The hills the blue azure water dampening the severity of the summer flue. Lost two hundred amid perplexing downward spitlal , she knows little and I less. We spent many great times here, when the kids were small. It was a thrill and the vibes hit with what’s like a ton of bricks
I am backtracking because it is appropriate, it is in a time past now recovered, and the minor unraveling by excessive gaming wishing upon a wish for a miracle. In addition how things seem to unravel a pecking order by preempting posts, well, that’s another thing.
The Wriggley mansion on top blazing white reflecting above, Marylin Monroe spent a year here during world war 2, Natalie Wood drained in the marina. Says to Ayden, that You Store 2 is playing in the casino, seen that he says disdainfully. That means play in with him for 3 days.

Its nearly 7 pm, a balmy late afternoon, gets dark by 8. Days getting shorter. Sitting on bench watching people in between writing this, wife says stay there room is only for 2 we are 4 somehow we must sneak in. Ok I say.

Stop torturing yourself about that 200 gambling loss, some psychologist said that it is good therapy to disengage the oppressive need for money . its chronic, and she suspiciously weighs my backpack says you must have a bottle there, if it was years ago, she would have made me open it. I knew she wouldn’t now, I have a pint in an un suspicious container, just say I have swim trunks and other stuff not how you travel everything and the kitchen sink. Blah blah blah.

Calls me says find Mex. Restaurant will treat - a marguarita, great I think, reward for waiting, found out they will enforce 2 guest rule so it means near night sneak in, but the bed problem only 1 queen means me sleeping on floor.
Lots of people . I’m settling down a bit, googling Mex restaurant, everything clumped into a few beachfront tourist trap. Thinking about You MagsJ, and others , here, one day I will get a real computer and post my ugly mug, but who knows I will ever get to that. The way I’m wasting the little I have, I never have enough, and now with this downturn meltdown, feeling on a precipice, downwardly mobile, making me raise it after every loss I dunno. But it’s all good, life breathes through it’s variable scents as the day’s breezes shift.
A museum:seen it before, Laurel and Hardy played gulf here with Wrigley, who had more able guests like Ronald Reagan. It really breezes as a paradoxical fantasy, of which I have had more than a small share.




—night before----------



.

Oh a passing thought about what potentate may mean, course my rambling at such a wayward hour may make little sense, potent means strong, potential has the same root, …

I do and must admit, that philosophy will always remain a search at the lowest ephiphenominal level, so, I can not say anything with certainty. But things are rarely as they meet the eye.

Good night, MagsJ.

Yeah… family :laughing:

She couldn’t stand St Lucian men, growing up, but we joked that she’d end up with one, and it looks like… she will be.

“inescapably and dreadfully compelling”
That’s very Scorpio-esque… are you one, Meno_? I can’t remember if you are. I was being compelled the other day… I might go back, for more. :romance-inlove:

Yes… it was my bad, but met with an unnecessary response imo. Can’t stand such types… the rash and vulgar, but whom talk about Value and Nobility. Ha!

Replying out of emotion does not a good Philosopher make, but even if we initially do, it should progress into a place of reason, not remain in a state of emotion.

Good night to you, dear Meno_, as it is morning here… albeit a very ceaseless rainy one.

:neutral_face:

…things on my mind keeping me awake.

You’ll forget them soon enough! :slight_smile:

Showing my grandson around the office. He is unable to sleep.
Makes you wonder how anyone can sleep with all that’s happened.
He has an inquisitive nature.
He was slightly perturbed by the cats and the crows in the reception area.
I explained, as best as I could!
He seemed to accept it.

My grandson is not accepting it, tried to explain to him that there is little difference between accepting or rejecting it. because it is what it is, human nature being incorrigible , but he is not buying it.

An early breakfast coming on… or will sleep find me again, before dawn. It did… 3 hours ago, and now a job application is on my mind… which I want to send off for today.

Nihilism is dead - we have killed it. :slight_smile:

Didn’t expect to see a soul. I opened the door just in time to see the young lady slam her office door. We refer to her as ‘Love’. I realise it sounds sexist to call someone Love, but she doesn’t seem to mind.
“What’s up with her?” I ask.
My question is disregarded. Instead, he directs his gaze at the now slammed door. “Come on, Love,” he calls. He looks at me, shakes his head. “Don’t ask,” I am told.
“Too late, I’ve already asked. What was all that about?”
He ignores my question. He points at my hands. “What have you been doing?”
“Removing the graffiti, as instructed.”
“All gone?”
“All apart from, ism. What’s upset her?”
“You know what she’s like.”
“Does she know I’m here?”
“What do you think?? By the way, you just missed your grandson.”
“You’re kidding me.”
“I told him you are a complete fool. He seemed to accept it. Go and put bard after ism.”

So… when going to tend to the cat this morning, I walked round the sofa only to find his latest kill beside it… a small and lifeless bird.

He hasn’t touched it, so I think he brought it for me… only thing is, humans don’t eat those kind of birds. It’s kinda cute though. :wink:

He’s been acting weird again… very needy and skulking around.

The Medicine Cabinet.

:-"
Kettle’s boiling.
In a moment.
What are you looking for? You’re rummaging!
Someone’s lost their sense of humour.
There’s an ointment for that.
That’s what I’m searching for! :smiley:


Today is the first day of autumn but its still quite warm here even at this time

For the last couple of weeks, the peaceful morning horizon has been disrupted with sounds of house-building and motorbike revving, coming from the Lane behind… now, I don’t know if they’re being made by the same person, but one of his neighbours told him to “Knock it off, with all that revving” and I couldn’t help laughing v loudly at it all, as our early mornings have been consistently disrupted by house-building on the Lane, over the last few years.

Welcome to the Ends, stranger. :slight_smile:

Not here, it’s not! :slight_smile:

“For the last couple of weeks, the peaceful morning horizon has been disrupted by house-building on the Lane, over the last few years.”

Did I read that correctly? :slight_smile:

Yes… there was a house being built prior to this one… which is now an is, as it’s been completed for a long while now… and now this one. The building work is quite quiet, but it’s the powerful machine between his legs that has been disrupting the secluded sound landscape of the Ends.

How do I know it’s a he, I hear you ask? :slight_smile:

Ahhh! well… because of the cc of the bike, which sounds more 750 than 250 or even 500, I replied.

Can I have some quiet please? Thank you. Would someone please be kind enough to remind me of the purpose of this thread?
“Justice in Action.”
Exactly! Where are you going?
I’m going to water the plant - it’s wilting.
We’ll watch and wait.
And see it done.
Let the Lawyers have their fun.
We’ll watch and wait and watch and wait

First hearing. No need for me to attend. Prior to the hearing, he pleaded guilty to assault. However, he expressed his intention to plead Not Guilty to assaulting my daughter. When the case began he changed his mind, and pleaded guilty. Sentencing has been postponed on a couple of occasions. The assailant couldn’t make the original hearing, and the Courts couldn’t make the second. Apparently, it will be some time in September.

Thinking about it! It could have been so much worse! He attacked the entire office staff of PCH&N when he struck me. It is fair to say, the Internal affairs department was thrown into total disarray. Files and documents were scattered in all directions. It could take several weeks to put everything back in it’s correct place. Nuisance. A proper nuisance.

Will you look at that plant, now.

Brain, wanting to be up-n-active since an hour ago… courgette-omelette n coffee being currently consumed, before completing the final hurdle that stands between a job and I… it being the full completion of a job application, by noon.

Birds singing, but the crows are silent so far today, to be eclipsed by the house-builder arriving on his suped-up super bike… I’m sure he’s saving on fuel, and therefore money, by not mindlessly revving the engine, for all to hear how super-expensive his super bike must be. He used to build ships, you know.

Apologia: a trilogy

Part 1

All quiet on most fronts, lights out.
Good night.
A little early, that’s all.
A toast for those still

awake.

To read this post , midnight confession.

Psst:

And says

Never like to build
Myself
Never
Assume too much
But gotta like
For other’s
Sake
Cause the shadow just passed, few ticking passed,
Mid night

Passing shadow

Looks
And back,

Me
Believe, ships are buoyant
To reason float on slowly
Quietly flows
the Don.

never stops quietly for many a year
between you and you and you
and I, quietly unpreturbadly, unforgettingly flows unwittingly

Flows day and many a night,

No excuse,
Excuse for her to stop , she remembers after
She is gone, no kidding , she remembers but you forgot,
Every hiss convulsing
Silent foam, snaking it’s way toward the open, see

Sea?

Now drink that tear as slow curling down the mable freeze that is her faced elegy, and know

Recovered your lapse,
In an eternal travail,
Of pictures taken
now together placed to elicit
Her movement and her breath ,
Slowly as she recreates the finality
of the immeasurable sense of her
Tribute , frozen

evermore in to now.
Who is she?

A woman coming to shore from a vessel
Carried you in, now crashed, and seeks finding you on island of
Dr. Moreau.

She will find you despite the change,
In your countenance,

Despite the growl
And the hiss,
The fervor
and the
Multitudes watching you groan
and try to leap
When a young
cub

Now sign say don’t look long into
eye,
Of a tiger.

And way past 3

Morning becomes Electra

Part 2

Actually, it is all Artemis’s fault.

:

: Artemis—offended that Agamemnon had killed an animal sacred to her—stilled the winds, making it impossible for Agamemnon and his armies to sail to Greece. The only way Agamemnon could gain favorable winds, Artemis decreed, was for him to sacrifice his young daughter, Iphigenia. Agamemnon did so and even gagged his daughter so that, with her last breath, she could not curse him for this deed. Her death enraged Agamemnon’s wife, Queen Clytemnestra.
…After Artemis quickened the winds and Agamemnon sailed off to Troy, Clytemnestra never forgot what Agamemnon did. While he was fighting the Trojans, she took a lover, Aegisthus. Together, Clytemnestra and Aegisthus plotted Agamemnon’s murder while he was fighting at Troy. When the Greeks at long last defeated the Trojans and Agamemnon returned home as a conquering hero, Clytemnestra murdered Agamemnon. Electra, grieving over her father’s death, thirsted for revenge against her mother. Meanwhile, to save her young brother—Agamemnon’s heir—from the wrath of Clytemnestra and Aegisthus, she sent him away. Years later, he returned to Mycenae with one thought on his mind: to avenge his father’s death.

That’s it in a nutshell, no intent to ad homini present ILP member-Artemis
