Sleepies, what is you think of Mr. Robot so far? It going up and down for me. Which is maybe good, like Lost and X-File did.

So far pretty good. Only on episode 2. I like the awkward look of the main guy, I relate.
I'd be shallow and ask for narrower hip bones. It's skeletal. I always look wide even when I'm thin. So what's to stop me from eating these tater tots and drinking this mocha? Can't win for trying.
Weight's been on my mind lately. I realized I've always been a bit overweight. Like on the chart, not just in my head. I thought I was at the high end of normal.
But I remembered as much as I hate the way it looked, I also kind of liked the rebellious aspect of being just a tad... curvy? Because it's attractive to me when people don't give a f*** what others think. I ate too much, drank too much, said to much... I used to be ok with all that and even like those things about myself. Cause when your fellow humans tell you over, over, over and again in no kind way that you are not, and will never be "one of them"... well you kinda either crawl into a hole and die or just set both middle fingers on "up" for good and do life on your own terms.
Lately though I am in the hole.
Bed Island.

I'm fine being alone too, as much as I enjoy company sometimes. It's that existential loneliness. the fact that your consciousness is trapped inside this body. Relationships relieve it, sure, but nowhere near entirely, which maybe why being alone or not doesn't necessarily make much difference.
I have to face peak hour traffic now. Will check in on my arrival. Love you guys :-)

I understand being trap inside defect body. I understand being trap inside brain that not working right. I understand when therapist say that despite this you must find way to be fulfill in life. I understand, despite her genuine sympathy, that not everybody get to be fulfill in life. I understand that sometime trying so freaking hard to be fulfill in life only gonna end up in tears. In conclusion: I understand.
I not sure we ever gonna be "okay" Sleepies, but we can be honest, and that maybe make other who is same way feel not so alone.
And, if we not can find way to ever enjoy our own life, I think we maybe can just at least give our life in service to other ... ... Okay, I know, that freaking lame when one is desperate to find any sliver of happiness. But, in my mind, if I not can be happy, then at least maybe, if I can get healthy enough, I would rather donate writing skills to charity and/or at least adopt forlorn doggie from pound, just to be of service. Then again, other days, I want entire world to burn to ground with me. I do. And then other day, I just would give any amount of monies to has somebody stroke my hair and tell me it okay. And I not even know what "it" is. So, in conclusions, we maybe has to be okay that we not ever gonna be okay.

Is this a poll?
Oh hello, is you maybe:
1. Athiest, Agnostic and/or Other Who Not Give Crap About Christmas?
Yes
2. Has you more dysfunction in you family than Kardashians?
No, not literally.
3. Is you hate perfunctory gift giving and cursory holiday pleasantries?
Yes, what percentage of Xmas gifts are never used? What a waste. Sad.
4. Does you like parties as much as you like colonoscopy?
Almost.
5. Is obligatory gift givings and consumer culture exhaust you?
See answer to 3 above.
6. Are you not able to eat tasty holiday treats cuz you fat?
No. I just don't like them. If it isn't chocolate mousse or solid bars of chocolate, I will pass on it.
7. Is you rather spend energy it take for holiday decoratings on …naps?
Or watching the football games.
8. Is you feel lonelier than space probe that now out way past Uranus?
I've been better.
9. Is you scandalously enjoy holiday but afraid to admit this cuz us sour pusses will resent you! (No! Please share!)
Halloween and Thanksgiving I love. Xmas isn't all bad.
I enjoy the Xmas carols. I enjoy the new snow and the Xmas tree, Xmas lights. I love giving gifts to small children. The Xmas stories.
10. Is you just has random musings?
I think I've taken up enough real estate already.
All is welcome. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/QUOTE]

Damn Cow, you've come up with some mighty fine conclusions today. I really like reading Walk's answers to the poll, so I'm gonna do it too.
Oh hello, is you maybe:
1. Athiest, Agnostic and/or Other Who Not Give Crap About Christmas?
No. I don't believe in a Sky Fairy, but I do believe there is some form of higher consciousness, of which everyone, thing, alien etc...is a part. The only things I like about Christmas are the food, and getting together with family.
2. Has you more dysfunction in you family than Kardashians?
Way more. Way, way, more.
3. Is you hate perfunctory gift giving and cursory holiday pleasantries?
Yes, I hate perfunctory gift giving. It's just a pain and costs everyone lots of money.
4. Does you like parties as much as you like colonoscopy?
Hmm....depends on my mood.
5. Is obligatory gift givings and consumer culture exhaust you?
Yep.
6. Are you not able to eat tasty holiday treats cuz you fat?
No. I've always been pretty skinny. Used to get teased about it at school. Now people often 'accuse' me of being anorexic, which is extremely irritating and rude, but I love food and eat plenty of it. I should accuse them of being fat.
7. Is you rather spend energy it take for holiday decoratings on …naps?
I quite like Christmas decorations, although I'm not going to this year because we're going to Melbourne to visit Mr TS's daughter and her partner.
8. Is you feel lonelier than space probe that now out way past Uranus?
I've answered this already.
9. Is you scandalously enjoy holiday but afraid to admit this cuz us sour pusses will resent you! (No! Please share!)
No. I'm not scared of you (sour) pusses :-)
10. Is you just has random musings?
Plenty.
I hope I still qualify as a misfit. In my defense, I would like to add that I do rank very highly on family dysfunction, so I think I should get a bonus point for that.

Whatever you can snatch from the particular pagan rite you choose to celebrate at this time of year, get hold of it well. Carpe each old diem right between your canines. It's going to get away from you no matter what, so you might as well taste it. And straight up -- no watering down the experience with liquor and drugs. To mix a few metaphors.
Cow, if you lack canines, your blessing is you get to eat it twice.
I've been better. 's ok. I'm not killing myself anymore, is the way I figure. If I'm a screwup and I end up making a bunch of people around me miserable, at least I can claim it, instead of the old lameass "really, I kind of passed on that decade."
Stay sober, Cow. Yes real life is long and sometimes hard. But you're a cow, not a chicken.

Are you still on that diet cow?
We have a big bag of black lentils, they are my favorite.
Really enjoying Mr Robot
As for this :
Always, yes, and yet I still cannot be trusted with a credit card, somehow.
Though I do enjoy giving a gift.
