So, yes...there's a new plan for the treatment of my personality disorder. It all seemed fairly innocuous, a pill here, some pills then, and later another batch of pills. With bursts of pills in between. But not every day. And some sort of sensory deprivation therapy twice a week. When she said, electroshock therapy I gasped, grabbed my paper bag from under my chair, and began breathing into it. She raised her glasses, and looked over at me. "Just kidding about all that." she said.
"Thats [breath] good." I huffed. "So changes then?" I asked.
"Oh...hahaha, I was only kidding about the shock therapy, I threw that it because it sounds dramatic and, you know, psychiatristy." she explained.
So far I like her. Sure, I've only been to one session, and she's got plans to radically change my life...but I like her. And her name is Melissa.

I want you to bring that up to your doctor, the way your always calling me "Melissa" in bedroom, which is AS creepy, as when you call out "Oh Stephanie"! that makes it weird going to work.
Posted by: doodle at March 13, 2007 07:35 PM
I maintain that it's only a reaction to the massive amount of beets I accidentally consumed recently.
And besides....you always call me Norman.
Posted by: Joshua at March 13, 2007 09:43 PM
Prior to firing Melissa, would you also ask her why you call me "Kay" in the boardroom?h
Posted by: Kerry at March 14, 2007 09:31 AM
I call you Kay in the boardroom, simply because you insist on wearing lavender dresses with berries on them.
Melissa's answer however will be, "Um...yeah, Joshua? Let's start at the top okay? You are c-r-a-z-y. Got that? Crazy...with a Z!"
Posted by: Joshua at March 14, 2007 03:46 PM
Ok..well...that is making me feel awkward...Maybe I need to see melissa too..Jeri in a lavender dress and berries I'm starting the feel very uncomfortable about...
Posted by: Tragic at March 14, 2007 07:24 PM
So I wanted to mention this down right silly thing I did yesterday at the place that enslaves me for 9 hours of my day...
I had the pt all set and ready..she was nervously looking at all 50 of DE's family and probably thinking.."Are all those her kids?" I was having the common Phlebotomist problem..Gloves...and the kind of gloves you don't really prefer but have to because it's all they have. When you are just trying to "mov'em out like cattle" you don't want to take the time to find "your" gloves..So I'm trying to get these Vinyl gloves on..one hand no problem..2nd hand..my hand slips off the edge of the glove and i end up smacking myself in the face big time. Thank goodness the pt was soo looking the other way...I can't get any more graceful than that..

Posted by: Tragic at March 14, 2007 07:59 PM
Thank you for making me laugh out loud. thats good! And of course i have the same glove "issues" as you, and I secretly wonder does the patient think "they cant even get a glove on, im starting to get nervous"."?
Posted by: doodle at March 15, 2007 04:10 AM
Doodle has the SAME dress, they told me it was one of a kind ... the sales people at K-Mart lie.
So is it the Patsy Cline, Aerosmith, Beyonce (sp whatever,) or Madona, sort of crazy.,
Posted by: Kerry at March 15, 2007 08:33 AM
It's the Olivia Newton John kind of crazy. Hey, do the K-Mmart's up there sell sandwiches and slushy drinks?
Posted by: Joshua at March 15, 2007 05:37 PM
Norman: We quit going to K-Mart when Target moved in, so I am not sure. In the late 70's, K-Mart had great burritos.Up here, it would seem as if they are in the process of dying.

How is life in Lopez neck of the woods?
Posted by: will at March 17, 2007 06:56 AM
I see that the Red Cross is making people work overtime without pay or days off or something of the sort.
Posted by: doodle at March 17, 2007 10:42 AM
I honestlty don't known what your talking about.
Posted by: will at March 17, 2007 03:22 PM
honestly
Posted by: will at March 17, 2007 03:22 PM
Kerry says he's going to "work my fucking ass off, and I'd better not even think about asking about overtime".
This, he said as he asked me to zip up his lavender prom dress.
Posted by: Joshua at March 17, 2007 06:16 PM
Another report on how crazy you is. Another back and forth about working at the Red Cross. Make me wish for another review of pipe tobacco or something. You were funny when I worked with you. Bet you still are.
Posted by: Nobody at March 19, 2007 03:43 PM
IF "NOBODY" Isnt happy with the subject matter, nobody knows where they can go.
Posted by: doodle at March 19, 2007 06:48 PM
*blinks*...Nobody?...Nobody?...How Original...and the grammer is worse than mine..Is that possible?...
Posted by: Tragic at March 19, 2007 09:47 PM
If only I knew who nobody is.
Posted by: will at March 19, 2007 10:24 PM
Great....now there's a back and forth about nobody. Or nothing. Or Kmart. Or this Red Cross joint. Or.....
Posted by: Joshua at March 19, 2007 11:00 PM
Nobody gets overtime here, we are all on salaries. Heck, on content, this place is fine ... nobody could complain (but Ms Buttcrack.)?
Posted by: Kerry at March 20, 2007 09:43 AM
Noshua! No pipe! Agatha!
Posted by: Fredoluv at March 20, 2007 04:34 PM
You still smoke a pipe Joshua?
Posted by: will at March 20, 2007 08:21 PM
Yes, I do enjoy a pipe. Currently in my rotation I have Haunted Bookshop, the ever popular Fox & Hound, and some Star of the East. And Yale Mixture. And Armada on occasion.
Sure Star of the East invokes images of a tin laced heavily with Syrian latakia (at least in my mind it did). This, is not the case. And so far it tastes like Yale Mixture.
Haunted Bookshop is quite good, dusty, really a good smoke for more serious, mindful activity, as opposed to Rainbow 6.
Agatha killed the pomegranate tree.
And Strowsie.

YAAAAaaawn!
Posted by: Anybody at March 21, 2007 02:54 PM
Oh. I'm being moderated. Even more boring I guess you have to have things as boring as "I worked at Red Cross today" and "Me too how was Red Cross for you" to be cool. Never was too cool, was I.
Posted by: Anybody at March 21, 2007 02:57 PM
No one is moderating you silly!
I never worked for the Red Cross either. Blood is yucky.
Posted by: Joshua at March 21, 2007 05:09 PM
What is really boorish is how this "anybody" character is hiding. Come on out and show us how much more interesting YOU are.
Posted by: doodle at March 21, 2007 06:54 PM
Visceraman1 got very dramatic with the presence of this Anybody character. You keep taking all of the attention away from important things like pipe tobacco.
Posted by: will at March 21, 2007 08:59 PM
Hehe. Joshua nows who I am, poodle. I like Will. Except I was kidding about pipe smoking. It's almost as boring as Red Cross.
Posted by: Somebody at March 22, 2007 09:12 AM
What I find most interesting is, I've never worked with anyone with such poor grammar. Who's poodle?
Posted by: Joshua at March 22, 2007 09:47 AM
As long as we don't have to talk about BLOOD, just the thought of it makes me sooo light headed. Oh, and could we avoid the death topic ... it messes me up for weeks.
Posted by: Kerry at March 22, 2007 11:55 AM
One thing poodle knows for sure, somebody certainly has poor grammar!
Posted by: doodle at March 22, 2007 06:42 PM
Poodles,Doodles,Bodies and Tobacco. What does it all mean?...hmmmm...
Posted by: Tragic at March 22, 2007 09:46 PM
It is all dust in the wind, but there is no doubt that the group's first four efforts chronicled the career of not only one of the most successful underground acts of the Nineties and early 21st. century, but also forged a one-of-a-kind sound that married crushing metal with industrial music and electronics in a bold way that few acts have effectively recreated since.
Posted by: Kerry at March 23, 2007 08:30 AM
Hehe I've read enough of Poodle's entries to know she's no english teacher. Look at the first one on this thread! Glad it got a little more interesting here I knew I could do it. I'll go back to waiting for the next Red Cross update while Joshue thinks of his next entry.
Posted by: Everybody at March 23, 2007 01:50 PM
On a different note. We wopuld like to invite the Lopez family over for some drinking and eating.
Posted by: will at March 24, 2007 10:51 AM
i like eating and drinking!
Posted by: doodle at March 24, 2007 10:52 AM
I'll be out on the balcony mooching cigarettes off William.
Nobody/Anybody/Everybody/Somebody/Rigorbody will be busily jotting notes for their entry offering.
Posted by: Joshua at March 24, 2007 01:09 PM
Well I will call you with the plans soon. 40 comments, I believe thats the most I have ever seen on Visceraman1
Posted by: will at March 25, 2007 09:18 AM
finally
Posted by: ~author unknown at March 26, 2007 08:14 PM
Your welcome Will. Someone had to give us something to read besides the monthold messages. Anything to report on Red Cross? Then can Poodle give her report. I will look in a few weeks to see.
Posted by: Everybody at March 26, 2007 10:23 PM
Illusions of grandeur, a relative perhaps?
Posted by: poodle at March 27, 2007 04:18 AM
Wouldn't surprise me in the least....

Posted by: Tragic at March 27, 2007 09:22 PM
Sounds interesting. A juggalo is an elite member of society. I'm actually ashamed you didn't know that Joshua. Don't forget your clown makeup NOBODY.
Posted by: will at March 27, 2007 09:50 PM
I roll it with the Shaggy, sippin' on my Fayo.
Juggalos ARE society.

Poodle: I think it is delusions of grandeur. And here I thought you were English master. WOOF!
Posted by: Everybody at March 29, 2007 01:46 PM
Every/Any/Nobody, if you had thought just a little bit before writing, you would know that there are both delusions, and illusions of grandeur. If I understand it correctly, both are associated with physical/mental disorders, and are approached differently by psychologists, and psychiatrists alike.
I know you take offense to my speaking of craziness, but just before my next sensory deprivation tx, I will inquire deeper for you..."say Melissa, there's this narcissistic fuck who..."
Posted by: Joshua at March 30, 2007 06:56 AM
Who is this stupid fucker that is picking on Doodle, and why is she/he (or neither) allowed to suck air?
Posted by: Kerry at March 30, 2007 02:30 PM
Slick Willie, you trying to reach me?
Posted by: doodle at April 1, 2007 05:45 PM
Yes I have been. It seems as if Jeri Blank avoids my phone calls.
Posted by: will at April 1, 2007 07:59 PM
I avoid the phone, not you. A difference!
