Preparations, Preventions and Portents

Preparing for the retreat. Planning whiskey. Purchased cigars — they arrive tomorrow — fifteen Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 Robusto Maduros.

Went to get my blood drawn to check my iron levels to see if the last donation got my hemochromatosis under control.

Potential business opportunity from an old friend. Subcontracting on a research and potential prototyping project. Money is good. Let’s see if we can’t make this happen.

Everything is going well, and hey, I haven’t pissed in my own face today. But it’s not midnight yet…

I sold another synthesizer today, which will help with some of the debt load as well as downsizing a bit, eliminating things I’m really not that interested in learning anymore.

Here’s an off-topic thought pattern. What if your kinks, fetishes, idiosyncracies, etc., aren’t necessarily based on childhood trauma or neglect at all, but rather they are messages from the Great Beyond, invitations, guideposts, and the like? For example, what if it’s your body telling you something you’re too cemented in your current belief system to accept directly? What if it’s your family trying to rouse you out of the coma you’ve been in for the past two years? What if it’s your spouse waking you from a bad dream? What if it’s God? Yes, God, guiding you toward divinity and enlightenment through an irrational desire to wear high heels while being spanked and anally penetrated?

It could happen. Nobody knows the objective truth. Lots of us think we do, but it’s all theories and perception, and how do you know that what you see is objectively true?
