Well actually I do not do the mars bar bit. But some do- they even use it in ads for getting young couples having a swell time to borrow money (probably for mars bar addiction). Deep and meaningful day- one memory threads into 5 more. Today was centred on despite their expertise in knowing about such things..WHY did I survive my last and greatest rockbottom? Why were these people- with thousands of patients experiences behind them- get it so wrong..why am I alive. God and I are not talking. The number of times I have been told ' you SHOULD be dead'. The same way a policeman will tell someone 'you SHOULD know better than drink and drive'..that sort of should. I got so preoccupied on stuff- I dipped a paintbrush with green acrylic on it into a perfectly useable cup of coffee. I SHOULD not abuse coffee like that....
ahem....
24 more please.
Phoenix..........................

Here's to you.

What do you call a bloated person who hunts monsters?




Puffy the Vampire Slayer

I'm still doubled up by that one. There is another one but I can't remember it at the mo. Right I'd better hand the standup routine back to the master.

Go go go Neo o o
Ha!

It's a sad day for me- my favorite uncle in Greece passed away 40 days ago (we celebrate at the 40 day mark.) My parents flew over on Friday and I am full of tears this morning as I remember him like he was in the picture below. I am on the left, on his shoulder (this picture is from the 80s.)

He was so much fun- always joking, always making people laugh. He was in his 80s when he passed and he lived a good life. I think I am just missing those days of innocence, of purity. I see the little girl and I wonder how she turned into so much pain and struggle. I miss the summers of endless beach and water, eating food without thinking twice about it, being around all of my cousins. Those were the best days of my life and I will never get them back. Just feeling nostalgic and of course, more than anything wondering how my aunt is going to go on without him.

I know death is a part of life and I believe I will see him again in the afterlife so for that I am grateful. Just feeling a bit sad this morning as I know 7 hours ahead of me in Greece, there is a room full of people mourning his death. Hopefully they are also remembering how wonderful he was.




Brighter days are coming.

Today I mourn with you a Great Man.

Always keep those memories tucked in your heart.

My heart is on your heart today.

Love to you, Sunflower.

You're becoming just as beautiful as you were then.
