What's the line? "Some days it just ain't worth the effort of chewing through the straps."
Yeah. Well, seems that there are a lot of angry, hurting people all over right now. Seems like there are some folks who just can't keep from gossip and drama and back-biting and causing conflict. But you know what, I'm just done with it all.
I have the most wonderful partner who loves me, others who love me, a lovely home with loving (if messy) companion animals, work to do that I (mostly) enjoy and a beautiful garden that is growing huge (and needs weeding.) I have talented people in the band to play with and make beautiful music that people love to listen to and dear friends who love me and whom I love. I have my health and sufficient energy (most of the time) to do whatever I wish to do. I had to grin at Yolonda' hubby Joe when he said, "You have one finger joint that bothers you...hell, you're doing pretty damned good!"
So the rest of it, I just let go. Negativity I do not have time nor energy for can just go away; I refust to accept it. I'd much rather spend my time being happy and doing things to make my little corner of the world a better place.
"We do this for fun!" Right? Right.

Date: 2006-05-16 01:19 am (UTC)I think some of the agitation is due to the heat. I found myself rather cranky a couple of times while at the Faire. Made me want to ram people with the stroller just to get them out of my way. But I found the "go to hell and get out of my way" look tended to work well.
Cranky baby + cranky mommy = VERY BAD!!!
And according to a friend of mine....there's an impending war coming for all of us soon. More than likely we're being tested to see who will stick together and who will fall apart. Hopefully for all of our sakes we will stick together so we can fight strong. But I can't elaborate more on it since I don't have a lot of info on the situation.

Date: 2006-05-16 01:39 am (UTC)You know, you're not the first person who's delivered that opinion. Bruce said that last night was the most upset he'd ever seen me; he was wrong, the first time we met I was that upset but not at him.
I'll admit that I have the capacity for a very bad temper of the 'seeing red' type but I have lots of practice at controlling it and not using it on anyone undeserving or simply in the line of fire.
*chuckle* I do have a couple good stories about of when my temper came out as Elizabeth's during performing where it was well deserved. I scared people! And I'll admit that it was fun....I got justice accomplished and that was a good thing.
But the rest of the time, I'm a pussy-cat!

Date: 2006-05-16 02:08 am (UTC)If you asked around about me people would tell you the same about me. Most of the time I'm very nice...but if you tick me off...stay out of the way. I have a bad temper as well. I have learned over the past few years to control it. But if you catch me on a VERY bad day....it's not good.
One of these days I will have to try to visit you...when you're not up to your eyeballs with work. I'd love to hear some of your stories...and apparently my son likes you too. And I'm sure that Bruce would have a good time with Brady in the house as well. :)

Date: 2006-05-16 02:12 am (UTC)We always have a summer party here at the house and it's usually around 4th of July. I guess it's going to have to be the end of July this year!

Date: 2006-05-16 02:15 am (UTC)And hopefully I can persuade my husband to join us. :) This way you can meet my husband as well. He's not on LJ...but he is on myspace. Although he doesn't get on myspace very often either. He's on EverQuest more than anything *if* he even makes it home in time to do that.
I will get the information from you later. :)
