I am lost. This planet is not mine and I do not know the way back to my planet. Does anyone?

For instance........today I was talking to my house guest about what I thought was very important and the TV was on. It was on to an old game show. The show is a casino like show where the three contestants take turns hitting a button to stop the spinning wheel. Whatever it stops on is what they get. I think that is all. She said, "please (my name), I want to watch this, it is my favorite show". I thought later of asking her, "can I quote you on that?". I am quoting her without her permission because I am a little bit stunned and I needed to share. Does anyone else feel lost here?

I am going to tell you a story.

While driving, I saw a sign with an arrow which read, "Good Will by the Pound", but I read it saying, Good Will by The Pond. I drove into the Industrial center to find the Good Will by the pond. I found the Good Will. No pond. Even when I walked in I was still wondering about the pond. Am I retarded?

The things were not set up like any Good Will stores I ever saw. (The Good Will is a recycle company of thrift.) All the things that could fit inside a large rolling canvas box were in the box. "Oh wonderful", thought I. What is this place? I asked a woman who I thought looked nice, she was, and she told me it is sold by the pound in this place. Hmmm. I wondered how much things weighed.

What they do is they charge 30 cents a pound for books; ninety-nine cents a pound for clothes and stuff. They weigh it in the cart. If it is big and heavy someone nice will assign a price for it. I might go there again sometime.

They do not bag the stuff. Every so often the carts are wheeled out and more carts are wheeled in. The people stand behind a line until the carts are all in.

It was fun. Some people wear gloves.

I am on hold with eBay now for going on three hours. My sister says I have patience as a virtue probably forgetting that I have blown up on her in the past.
I sell things and have got a 20% discount when buying postage online but today the 20% off is not there. I am waiting to find out why.
The last time I called eBay I lost my temper and now I wonder if I am on the do not answer list.

I am realizing that over the course of my 20s I have developed a very strong liking of "dark" electronic, EBM, and industrial music.

I am going to hang up. It has been more than four hours. I started counting at 9:30 and now it is 1:36. So.........I think my husband is right that some calls get sent to limbo. Or maybe the end has come to the place eBay calls go to.

I am quite certain that the best fried onion rings that might be found can be bought a little over three miles from here. :D

Vintage and antique ashtrays are so beautiful I am thinking about taking up smoking. What do you think? Oh? You think, but not at me?

I am trying to remember if I changed my handle which I am on Google. I like it but I don't think I am smart enough to have made it up. Where did it come from, I wonder?

I am fuming about the U.S.A. postage increase and the fact that eBay and Paypal take some of it. So now when a person wants to sell something on eBay it must be given away for the cost of postage most of the time. I have seen it done! I wonder if those that do it know they are making no money. I think tis better sometimes to give the thing to charity. Sigh.

I am thinking that if the resale market reflects the World Market then the World is in for some wild ride. The people who think they run the World don't want you to worry, but I think it might be fun if people knew the truth. That is just because I feel bored and am procrastinating.

I am all things, one thing and no thing.
I am what is and what is not.
I am and i am becoming what i am.
I am known and i am unknown.

I am this and i am that.
I am here, i am there.
I am me, without a care.
I am over, under and beyond.
I am the the frog in the pond.

I am the music in your head and the keeper of the dead.
I am on the mountain that rises to the sky and I am on the valley floor below.
I am the twinkle in your eye and all that you know.

I am not at the end, i am never able to be,
I can say it all day,
cause I am is inside of me.
