KId, I am far older than yourself.
And when you accuse me of...........

.......Stand down, son.


Being older than others or than we were once also means knowing how to be gentle and calm in a conflict.

It's a thought.

I wish I could always follow it.

Stand softly.

Pffttt....
I'm oldest in this thread.
Stand on your head, or stand down.
Grab the whiskey bottle and be done with it.

I shall refer you to my Indian cousin, Pissonya.

In any case, it was not a great day.
Went to the flower shop and bought Lori a grand stand of very beautiful orange roses.
Dropped them off on her countertop so she would have them upon getting home from work.
Instead of getting thanks, she called outraged.
WTF, you been drinking again??
Fuc]]]ing flowers., they mean nothing to me if you have been drinking.

Nice response to a concerted effort to make nice.

I am totally screwed now./

Ok you don't understand women or 'men' (who are the rest of humankind by the way.. - Unless you includes apes and football players :))

I assume you are a man! (I know you are.)

So you don't understand humankind as a totality or yourself.

Welcome to the world.

You are on a mad one kittyman..

Oh wow................

The kindred souls are not being kind to the kittyman tonight.

Just remember, I am from kpax.
[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVwGbogvjnU] On MY time not yours.

I exist here on my terms, for a short term of time, and can leave at any time.

I do not come from where YOU come from.
This has escaped your grasp during my participation in this project.
And this truth does not mean than I have more knowledge than you do.

But..........the scientists all ask......................'how could you know this'.?

As the movie quote goes......................
I do not know what I believe, but I believe what I saw.

I, personally, believe that life as we know it, could have been seeded by either other life visiting us, or by cosmic remnants from a comet that crashed into us billions of light years ago.
Or by God, who I also believe in.

It is not the best version I have come across, but it can be viewed without restrictions.
If you want to learn more about 'where I come from'.....
At least this is the best version I have come across.

I have also seen that great movie.
Kevin Spacey as the "Alien" from Kpax.
And Jeff Bridges as the Psychiatrist.
Now that's a movie. Nothing more.

Many scientists are agreeing with you.

One can certainly accept both simultaneously...

... I like the idea that we were seeded by a meteorite from Mars when it had liquid water and an atmosphere. (This is actually plausible as Earth wasn't as conducive to the formation of life at the time, and of course the meteorite from Mars found in Antarctica with organic molecules and possible microbes in it.)

Means that we're all really Martians. Makes us a little more exotic.

I prefer the idea that we were already exotic and a wonder and zhen noticed places like Mars.

We all come from somewhere.

I am sick an tired of my sentences being cut short, my mind being reridden, and folks who are simply so short circuited of mind that their default code is..........
No, not in my back yard.....................yawn...............no, not in my back yard.........................no, not in my back yard.

You can hear these folks yawning a couple of mile away........................nooooooo, nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnt in my back yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyard.

These are the same folks that voted for Hillary and wonder why she lost so badly.

And you, those of you who have never done it.
Have no idea what it is life to wake up not knowing what you have said, what you have done, or who you may have pissed off.
You just kinda hope the car is in the drive, and nobody has taken the keys.

I am personally in a situation.

I drove to Lori's place last night to deliver a bunch of roses.
Orange roses, like the orange kitty.

I did some things that I never do.
I left my cell phone at home.
And I left my keys on her kitchen table, walked out, and slammed the door behind myelf.

After sitting in my car for an hour, it finally came to me that I had a fine pair of Channellock right beside me all thise tiome and took a twist to the keybit. broke it off, and was on my way again/
Lori still has the keys,
But I still has Toothless, my dragon.\\\
And should you ask, n IU was notr druck, I simplyu had alapse or pissingf points.....

Brain chemicals, day two.

I am flyin' high, my friends.
Got ol' Toothless out of the driveway this morning after the snowstorm and went to the SALON.
I was pampered and caressed by one fine hairdresser.

Got the hair colored and my beard trimmed.
Damn, I am a new man.
I do still clean up pretty good for 60..........
I look in the mirror now and I see nothing but 40.

Meow, man. I am doing sooooooooooooooo fine.
It is really great. My mind does not offer me such days but once in a blue moon, if even that.
So, when it does, I, as the saying goes, seize the day.
Blonde is now not so white. Golden, as I originally wanted it. I am sooooooooooo happy with it.
She was a most excellent beautician. I shall go back to this one again, for sure.
Pampered and petted for almost two hours.
She asked for $60.00 and asked if that was too much....................
I gave her $80.00 and was happy with that. She giggled and said, Sir, you KNOW what you like.
Gurlz don't tip that much.
Great fingers, honey. And she, being married, seemed to appreciate my attention too.

I give appreciation when and where it is deserved. And it is most always returned in kind.

And I am Feelin' Good.
Turn it WAY up and listen to the words.
You don't get this out of the kittyman too often.
Not often enough.

LOL.

Brain chemicals, day 2.5................

It's all come back now.
Hard to remember where I was just hours ago.
I shall try, because those few hours that I had with myself were so wonderful.

Most of you cannot fathom the sorrow when one looks in the mirror and sees somebody there that is not you.
For just a few hours today, I was able to see ME in my reflection.

It is not possible for me to put into words just how special those few fleeting moments were.
You would have to be functionally insane, as I am, to begin to know.
And, as there are very few of us who are able to exist on that knife edge for very long, I know I am speaking from an empty stage to a nonexistent crowd.

So, I shall put on my best kitty personna again and wait for the next time.
It may be tomorrow, it may be next month, it may be a couple of years from now, God willing that I should still be alive that long.

It was wonderful, thrilling actually, to have what you all have every day, for just a moment.
I envy you so much for being able to take your sanity for granted.
None of you stands at the edge of an infinite cliff and constantly dangles one foot over the edge.
That is what it is like. Daring gravity to take you. Scared.
Not scared enough to pull back and not quite scared enough to jump, either.
So, forces beyond your control start to rule your life.
I could only wish they were not./

I am getting smaller.
My world is getting smaller.
I have two cats that are getting smaller and more frail.
They both love me dearly, but one day soon, they shall also have to leave me.

I will not be able to endure that loss.
As my cats go, so shall I leave this terrible pain.

I can only convey in written words what I feel.
But, there are some ethereal things that I cannot convey by written words on a black and white canvas. You must know that there are things I cannot say or convey in this manner.

Some of you think you know me, but you do not, really KNOW me.
Not one of you has held my hand, looked me in the eyes, or kissed me on the lips.
Not one of you.

And yet, some of you wish to propose that you know me.
I send and have shared with you some of my most intimate thoughts and experiences.
Things most men would not admit to.

I am not sure why I have now. Because admitting bares all.

I could go on, but it would be useless.

The hours or days or years of darkness I must endure to spend one moment with you in lucidity are worth it.
My pain remains mostly within, I hold it closely.
So, I hope that my friends shall understand when at times, it suddenly has to burst,
