Honest Conversation

Well, here's another follow-up, if anyone's still listening.

As I said, when he called Tuesday night, he suddenly had to get off the phone when I starting saying anything about myself - i.e., telling him I had been sick.

When he called last night (only one call yesterday), he told me all about his adventures on vacation and was ready to hang up. I started telling him, doing his parts and my parts of the conversation, about my day - e.g., "Well, my day was good too, thanks for asking. I was busy at work but I'm feeling better..." This admittedly was a sarcastic approach, which wasn't the best idea, but I had been aware of the one-directional supply thing happening again. His response was "Well, if your goal was to make me feel bad, you succeeded." I told him that no, my goal was to say something about myself. He actually made me feel bad for him that he had been inconsiderate!

Suffice it to say that things went very badly tonight, as he was still holding a grudge because I had criticised him last night.

I know there's no particular point in sharing all this, except that I know someone out there understands how maddening these things are, and that helps.

ccumm36D, I wish I could call Father Damien over! Come to think of it - I'm the one who needs the exorcism to get him out of my head!

If I may just step in to compliment Beefheart on his spectacular lobster.

Thank you. Get rid of it!

Hold on there Kane. Take a moment to just centre the page on his red, boiled out husklike form. Behind his imploded, beady little eyes there is a soul. It is calling out, too. What is it saying? It is almost loud enough to discern, but just not quite.

Hypnotising, yes? Look at him.

Sorry for the Lobster.

I do consider myself not computer-illiterate, but i haven't broken the code yet concernind the avatar picture posting. And, just after I posted it, I was barred access to the forum again.

Today I was able to log on and remove it.

In any case, It wasn't a Lobster. It was a crawfish, only about 6 inches long. As small as they are thsese creatures can be deadly.

There was an attack of undead mutant zombie crawfish in our city recently. I'm surprised this didn't make the international news. If anybody wants to message me privately I will give them the URL.

The only way to defend the population was to cook and eat all the undead mutant zombie crawfish. I was part of that effort. I took the picture of one that had come back to life and was creeping out of my plate, .... headed straight for my throat.

I'm sure you all noticed the malevolant lifeless evil in its eyes.

Honest conversation?? Mine has tried to in the past, usually after being apart for a few months. This time she is completely rational until our relationship is brought up. Immediately she acts panicked, and starts the whole blowing things out of proportion,exaggerating, story telling thing. Our pastor says he can't even have a rational relationship conversation with her. I had him read the papers I was served with, his reply was, "sooo ...her story changes yet again".
