aka Contrarian Posted September 3 Report Posted September 3 Suddenly I've drifted into a crazy zone. I have nothing but time on my hands, and I live around the clock, only sleeping when I'm sleepy, only eating when I'm hungry, suspended in limbo. My Samsung smart phone is my ever present companion and it's like there's a connection between my fingers and its keyboard and I have a compulsion to just write long dissertations or crazy vignettes, my words and thoughts feeding on each other like i'm overtaken by a rogue AI entity that compels me to write about things I didn't know I knew, - like my subconcious mind is on overdrive. Like now. Fortunately, I'm not immobile nor in dire health. But I do tire easily, and like to curl up on my recliner, where i still set aside time to do patternless crossword puzzles that seem to work themselves and play Bridge on line with computerized robots - who seem to becoming more human by the day... Family relationships are normal, but there's this other world that I drift in and out of and when I sleep I have vivid dreams about all those who have gone ahead. In a recent one it seemed like my husband had hooked up with an old girlfriend. Why do I find this funny??? Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining, not lonely nor depressed, just curious about this weird state I'm caught up in. I still sometimes sneak out at night and look up at the stars... Now i'm about to gear up for my daily walk up and down the driveway. Stay tuned, - or tune out if you have better things to do than read the ramblings of a crazy ol lady. Hoping some winning POWERBALLnumbers will pop into my head. Nothing like a billion dollars to calm your impulses. 1 1
aka Contrarian Posted September 3 Author Report Posted September 3 It's like the above picture had a mind of its own and expanded into a huge image, coupled with another photo that latched on to it and which I deleted Strange.
Delano Posted September 3 Report Posted September 3 I tore my ACL so I also have a lot of time. Waste a lot if time, but I read a book or a chart an hour or two and periodically. I have caught the eyes of strangers and say hello. Or people will ask me if I'm okay or how did i hurt my leg. Also meeting more people. I think having time allows forces to pull you towards them. 1
aka Contrarian Posted September 4 Author Report Posted September 4 @DelanoIt helps if you are good company for yourself. The ol saw about "idle time being the playground of the devil" should probably be heeded, however. 1

Maybe you find it funny because of what you probably DID to that woman to prevent that from EVER happening, lol.

And I'm a passive, non jealous woman who never engaged in cat fights over men. I can understand if my husband hooked up with an old flame since I'm taking so damned long to join him on the "other side".

ProfD Posted Monday at 12:34 AM Report Posted Monday at 12:34 AM Lottery winners of a million dollars or more usually aren't going to admit it publicly.

On 9/6/2025 at 1:45 PM, aka Contrarian said: I can understand if my husband hooked up with an old flame since I'm taking so damned long to join him on the "other side". I'm still waiting for a family member or friend who has gone over to the other side to confirm that it exists so that I can get my sh8t together.

Since my once thick bushy hair has thinned out with age and I'm all about convenience, I resort to doing what all those false-eyelash, acryllic nail wearing black woman are doing nowadays: wearing huge afro wigs made of synthetic hair, or long luxurious "baby hair" wigs made from hair imported from India, or braided extensions made from whatever the ones in the local Korean-owned beauty supply stores are made of. I dispense with all that glamour, however, and settle for styles that duplicate the ways I used to wear my hair which has turned completely gray. After my grand daughter does the cornrows, I'm good to go, although I don't do a lot of going nowadays which has a lot to do with the choices I make.

Cornrows underneath the hat seems to be the next best thing to a cut. Simple is the way to good.
aka Contrarian Posted Monday at 10:59 PM Author Report Posted Monday at 10:59 PM Btw, I don't wear the corn rows on public They are just a way of keeping my real hair out of the way of my "artificial coiffs". 1

aka Contrarian Posted Tuesday at 04:01 PM Author Report Posted Tuesday at 04:01 PM HAIR THEN HAIR NOW (What old ladies do when they have too much time on their hands.) ************* No National Guard troops have shown up in Chicago yet. Latest news reports a confrontation between 2 women in a black neighborhood ends with one shooting the other in the face, killing her. Three-year-old playing with gun, accidently shoots and kills himself. And Life goes on... Or does it??

I simply cant image what I'd do if my 3-year-old shot herself with a gun laying around the house. Who is that stupid and careless... @aka Contrarian you look great with a mind to match!

There will be some form of 9/11 commemoration tomorrow. They won't spend an iota of time explaining why the towers collapsed.
