Warrior-woman; a Valkyrie. I'll always be yours. Always...and never. 
Are You HOT or NOT?

Watched Monster last night. Sparked deep conversation...
The real Selby WISHES she looked like Christina Ricci. But that wasn't what our convo was about. We've been fascinated by Alieen Wuornos; her childhood; her past; her search for love; her anxiety and mental issues. It's sad. We watched the Nick Broomfield documentaries. The last one was tragic. She just wanted to die. If I were her, I'd want to die too. That woman had anything that she could have been taken away from her. She was convinced that love didn't exist. It would be nice to think that when bad things happen to a person, they'll be able to rise up from it and be a stronger, more together person. It doesn't always work that way. Some people after being abused, become abusers; some don't. But a child, never knowing security, love, peace... what do you expect when that person becomes an adult? Expect an empty shell; a husk of a person and what they were exposed to swirls around them. Woe be to anyone that finds themselves on their path... Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, New version of Carrie, Butterfly Effect tonight. I've watched Pi: Faith in Chaos again and listened to Sean Gullette and Darren Aronofsky's commentaries. Interesting... Actually, I didn't pay attention to chaos because of Pi; it was always there. The extra features in Butterfly Effect had a couple pyshcoanalysts and mathematicians that mentioned some theories that I've believed but didn't have a reference to. Last Friday, there was a LOT of rain in MD and one of the sump pumps gave up the ghost and water just started to pour in through the back door. It was so depressing. I was watching the waters rising and flowing further and further onto the carpet, moving everything I could. When it rained it poured...right into our lower level; about 1.5" of water. Thankfully, none of our electronics were destroyed. Eventually, we're going to have to re-construct the lower level: drywall, stairs, bathroom flush-in; but we are going to anyway. My leather shag rug was partially moistened...Little Man helped me pick it up and carry it to safety. It was a lot of work and we worked our asses off. A friend of mine came over later that day and couldn't believe we had a flood. I told her that it was a lot of fuckin' work to make it look like "what flood?" We already bought a dehumidifier so that helped tremedously, but there was still a slight mildewy smell. Bought some Febreeze and dumped that into the carpet. No more smell...always good. I've been writing, not typing and sometimes, it just isn't worth it to transfer. Today I have a major headache. I hate headaches. I'm done. SAI...been thinking about the name of that weapon for months! Finally popped into my head. Katana or kitara kept floating into my head, even though I know full well that a katana is a samurai sword. committed to memory now... em·pa·thy Etymology: Greek empatheia, literally, passion, from empathEs emotional, from em- + pathos feelings, emotion -- more at PATHOS 1 : the imaginative projection of a subjective state into an object so that the object appears to be infused with it 2 : the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another of either the past or present without having the feelings, thoughts, and experience fully communicated in an objectively explicit manner; also : the capacity for this I was a little irritated. My dictionary doesn't have this nice definition of empathy. I know I need to get a BIG dictionary but I figured there would be more than the rinky-dink version. blah blah blah... holla@me
