you ever have one of those days when you feel like you've been hit extra-hard with the clutsy-stick?

In the last 24 hours I've dropped, run into or fallen off of just about everything I possibly could have (except my bike, thank goodness, though i came dangerously close several times yesterday). I'm a little bit afraid to leave the house today!

if you had my sister for a sister, who's a scientologist you'd probably be getting a lecture about being "pts" ...which is another word for under the influence of a suppressive person. she'd ask you if anyone in your immediate environment is "squashing" you, or if anything restimulated a memory of being squashed or insulted or whatever, and then supposedly as soon as you remembered or figured out who the person was who was putting you down, you'd stop being such a temporary clutz. also, supposedly, a "symptom" of being their "pts" (potential trouble source) is having a cold and acting sort of cowed and controlled and weak.

...but you're a pretty tough cookie, and I don't always believe my sister's advice on stuff like that. but it's interesting to consider.

it's true that often the biggest criminals are not the ones who are spinning out of control and screwing up left and right, it's the people around those destructive people who start to sort of spin. ...like my mom for instance, with her destructive boyfriend, ...who she's away from, incidentally for the past couple months. and she's 40 days sober, and going to AA, and really finally facing her life. But yeah, her boyfriend tried to get her put in jail, and then he was ready to just stay in her house the whole time while she was in jail. He tried to say she hit him, when he really just fell drunk and hit his head on the counter-top. pretty pathetic, if you ask me, ...but the police believed him at first, and my mom spent one night in jail. ...then she kicked him out for good, "saw the light"

anyways, I'm not trying to say you're one of those "pts" people. but it's kind of interesting to see how some people interpret incidents in their lives. I'm not saying I totally endorse it, but it's interesting to see that perspective, I think.
