I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there"

Another Year Over

2011-12-10T08:00:00.001-08:00

2011 is almost over.
It's not been a great year.
I am thankful for everything God puts in my life.
It's just been a very depressing year.
The worst was losing my sister Donna.
I will always love her.
My twin sis Kim has had a terrible year as has my sis Judy.
My sis Tammy's cat Cooper disappeared.
And I found out today that one of Kim's best friends from our school years died recently.
Needless to say I'm about ready for a new (happy) year in 2012.
As long as it's not our last year on Earth like most people think. Not me.

There were some high points.
My brother's wedding was a lot of fun.
I'm glad I like his wife and that she's not some crazy bitch who I hate.
Nope, she's pretty damn cool.

Anyway, I'm ready for 2012!
Bring it on!

Fuzzball

2011-09-24T23:54:00.000-07:00

My tough lil' guy passed away recently.
He was the toughest cat ever!
We spent 19 years together and had many crazy times.
He once scared 2 raccoons away.
He once caught himself on fire.
He always made us happy, made us laugh.
He will be very missed.
He was always the dominant one, the leader of the pack.
He fought extremely hard in the end. I don't think he was ready to go yet.
He was such a fighter.
I am so proud of him, and will miss him greatly.
I love you Fuzzy and may you be with your sis Friski.
I love you both!

Donna

2011-07-14T22:48:00.000-07:00

Donna Jane Wilkinson
My half-sister
My sister
Always.......

Donna passed away on July 4th 2011.
I miss her so much.
I hadn't seen her since 2005 but we kept in contact over the internet.
I wish so badly that I'd gotten to know her better and seen her more.
If you have family you haven't seen for a while, get in contact with them.
You may never have the chance again.
I will miss Donna very much but I know she's at peace, out of pain, and with her wonderful sister Rhonda who I met in the 90s.
I will see you two wonderful ladies again someday.

In The Springtime of Peeping Tommy's Strange Little Earthquake

My little freaky ass Tori Amos tribute.
Enjoy!

In The Springtime of Peeping Tommy's Strange Little Earthquake
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tommy.
He had a heart attack at 23.
It was Winter.
It had been a pretty good year until then.
He lay in a hospital bed eating toast and a pancake.
It was Wednesday.
He wished he was in Ireland.
He wanted to walk to Dublin and ride horses.
But he was stuck.
He turned on the TV and saw a lady in blue holding a black dove in a music video.
It was kinda crazy.
He then decided to take a nap.
He dreamt of being in a hotel way down in Florida.
He was with a girl named Marianne, who was a very cruel waitress.
She bugged Tommy's martini and he choked.
When he woke up, he noticed he had pissed his orange knickers.
He had drank a lot of Code Red before his nap.
He decided to leave the hospital and score some Mary Jane.
He got totally high and went to a carnival and pretended he was the banana king.
Then he shouted 'Iieee' as he had another heart attack and died.
THE END

I must say this. I am on Anthony Wiener's side here.
He lied about posting pics of himself on the Internet and was forced to resign.
Well, Bush lied too, and thousands of innocent people died because of it. Was he forced to end his presidency? No.
So America, we're okay with killing, but not wieners?
Am I missing something here?

All storms end

All fights go right

It's not alright

It's safe here
You're safe here

The Lamb's Book of Life

2011-04-01T04:39:00.000-07:00

Out of Ireland I have come
Great hatred and little room
Maimed us at the start
And now home just breaks my heart
To America I have come
I hope to bring your preacher men
Home to show my people how they can
Get their names back in the book of life of the lamb

I know that I have done many things
To give you reason not to listen to me
Especially as I have been so angry
But if you knew me maybe you would understand me
Words can't express how sorry I am
If I ever caused pain to anybody
I just hope that you can show compassion
And love me enough to just please listen

Out of Ireland I did run
Great hatred and little room
Aimed to break my heart
Wreck me up and tear me all apart
To America I have come
I need to find a good preacher man
Who can show me how I can
Get my name back in the book of life of the lamb

I bring these blessings with me
A strong heart full of hope and a feeling
That everything in this world would be okay
If people just believed enough in God to pray
But the world thinks that sounds crazy
And that's the thing that makes me sing so sadly
To think that we would leave God so lonely
To think that we would mess up our own destiny

Out of history we have come
With great hatred and little room
It aims to break our hearts
Wreck us up and tear us all apart
But if we listen to the preacher man
He can show us how it can be done
To live in peace and live as one
Get our names back in the book of life of the lamb

Out of hopelessness we can come
If people just believe it can be done
'Cause every prayer ever prayed is heard
Take power in the power of the word

Out of history we have come
With great hatred and little room
It aims to break our hearts
Wreck us up and tear us all apart
But if we listen to the Rasta man
He can show us how it can be done
To live in peace and live as one
Get our names back in the book of life of the lamb

Out of history we have come
With great hatred and little room
It aims to break our hearts
smashes us up and tear us all apart
But if we listen to the Rasta woman
She can show us how it can be done
To live in peace and live as one
Get our names back in the book of life of the lamb

Thank you Sinead O'Connor-Much Love

Mike Starr

2011-03-09T18:04:00.001-08:00

Mike Starr, former bassist for Alice In Chains, passed away yesterday.
I watched his stuggle with drugs on Celebrity Rehab and Sober House on Vh1.
I was so happy to see him return this season, announcing his 6-month sobriety.
I was thrilled for him.
This is very sad news and he will be very missed.
Drugs are serious. They kill. Stay away from them.
RIP Mike, we love you!

Jesus Saves

2011-03-03T23:37:00.000-08:00

I dreamed last night that I was in a 'world from the past.'
I was walking down the road near my house. I knew it was supposed to be Summer but everything was covered with ice and snow. I called my Mom on the phone and told her that I was in another world.
I told her that my sister Tammy had once told me that whenever I went to my 'world from the past' to look for our dog Oliver, who died in 2003.
I went into the woods looking for him.
I never found him.
But I started climbing a tree and suddenly I looked up and saw the face of Jesus.
We were both dangling from the tree and we were face to face with our arms outstretched.
The branch we were on was way too small to hold but I wasn't scared because I knew Jesus wouldn't let me fall.
Suddenly he disappeared and the woods turned into a small room, with walls, not exactly a house, hard to explain.
Anyway, the room was filled with religious artifacts like crosses, Bibles etc.
Then 2 of my deceased cats, Snowball and Friski showed up and I played with them.
My cat Fuzzball is very sick and not expected to make it through the night.
I think it was a sign that Friski and Snowball are gonna be the ones to greet Fuzzball in Heaven.
By the way, Friski is his sister who died in 2009.
It also reflects where I'm at in life.
I'm scared about my future but I know God won't let me fall.
And now He can take Fuzzball in his arms and keep him safe.

2011-02-23T14:57:00.000-08:00

Well I missed my appointment because I had no transportation. I hope they'll have me back sometime soon, hopefully on a weekend. I really need to go bad. Say a prayer for me.

Changes

2011-02-01T00:28:00.000-08:00

I'm going through changes.
My goal this year is to face my fears.
So far, so good.
I have a dentist appointment on the 24th of this month.
Dentists terrify me but it's okay.
Anyway, I've spent years being isolated from the world due to my self-doubt and low self-confidence.
I need to change.
I've spent a long time not smiling in photos, looking down when talking to people and trying to hide my mouth due to my bad teeth.
And recently, I found this group at The Experience Project.

http://www.experienceproject.com/groups/Have-Bad-Teeth/157992

I felt as if they were all talking about me. I finally realized I wasn't alone in my feelings.
I had to become a member and tell my story.

http://www.experienceproject.com/stories/Have-Bad-Teeth/1375323

I spelled 'teeth' wrong once but that's besides the point.

Posted January 25th, 2011 at 9:24PM
I found this group yesterday and am so happy I did. I finally feel that I'm not alone.
When I was little, my sister and I had to have caps on our tetth. I remember being called 'Silver Teeth.' People made fun of me and I hated it. The caps would fall out whenever you ate candy though. Anyway years later I ended up in a deep depression, for several reasons, and I spent years not wanting to do anything, including brush my teeth. I neglected them for years and regret it now. I have some good but most bad, and black, and I never smile in photos. I hate cameras. I always look down when talking to people and it's all completley ruined my self-esteem. I am 27 and have never been in a relationship and worry that I may never be because who'd wanna kiss me?
I have trouble finding work. I'm not working now and I am lonely and sad.
I found this group yesterday and the same day my doctor called and told me he'd made me a dentist appointment at a pretty cheap place so I can hopefully afford it. I have no insurance. I have to go Feb 24th and I am scared to death but excited too. I haven't been to a dentist since I was about six years old and I remember crying then. But it's something I have to do and I will. I told myself this year would be the year I faced my fears, so here it goes. Thanks for all your stories. We're not alone.

Well the people there are very supportive and I am very grateful.
I'm nervous as hell to go to the dentist but it's gonna be a huge first step.
I was also sitting here earlier watching MTV. Don't judge me : ) They were showing 'True Life: I'm Losing My Hair.'
I've worn a hat for nearly 15 years due to a bad haircut. Of course my hair is back now but I'm so used to the hat that I never go without it and I think people think I'm bald on top, which I'm not. Anyway, there was a guy on the show and some girl was trying to pull his hat off and he was getting angry. It reminded me of me. Afterward a video from P!nk came on called Fucking Perfect. And it's an excellent and uplifting song about society's view on looks and perfectionism. I felt like this is all a sign from God that things are gonna change in my life. I feel like I will finally have confidence in myself, inside and out. And having good teeth and not wearing a hat makes it easier to get a job so there's that.
Anyway, I'll keep you updated on my progress.

Damn Government

2011-01-26T15:19:00.000-08:00

We can't drive because gas prices are too high.
We can't work because we can't drive.
We can barely use electricity because they raise the power bills for their own gain.
People can barely afford food.
We can't stay healthy because we can't afford a doctor.
What is wrong with this place?

Remember when...

2011-01-13T02:11:00.000-08:00

Remember when music was good?
Remember when television was good?
Remember when MTV was cool?
It wasn't all that long ago.
Isn't it time to bring the good stuff back?
Where is Fleetwood Mac?
Where are The Smurfs?
Where are the good music videos?
Remember Like A Prayer?
Remember Thriller?
Remember Sledgehammer?
Ah, those were the days.

Where is originality?
Where is creativity?
All movies are remakes.
All songs are covers or samples.
All music videos are direct copies of others.

I remember 2 good albums coming out last year.
Only two!
Those were Hole's Nobody's Daughter and Rob Zombie's Hellbilly Deluxe 2.
I never thought I'd miss the entertainment of the 90's but I do.
I miss Lita Ford.
I miss Beavis & Butthead.
I miss videos like Black Hole Sun and Enter Sandman.
I miss good films.
Like The Wicker Man.
Not the crappy remake.
At least the new sequel is coming soon, directed by the same director, Robin Hardy.
That'll be great.
Movies were best in the 70's and 80's.
The 80's were the best.
I miss it.
Even the toys were better.

I'm just saying we need something good 'art-wise' or 'entertainment-wise' to actually look forward to and not dread.
Is anyone listening?

2010-12-22T07:22:00.000-08:00

The year is almost over. Everything happens so fast. I've had enough of wasting my time. 2011 marks the year that I face my fears. I have no doubt that I will be working again. I will learn to drive, finally. I will get to a dentist. I will not waste Spring and Summer or Fall. I am so sick of Winter. I just want it to be over with. I can't wait to soak up some sun. I think it's going to be a good year.
My song for 2011: Skeleton by Dolores O'Riordan

Halloween

2010-11-08T01:32:00.000-08:00

Halloween was so much fun this year. I felt like a kid again. I miss those days so much. When your parents tell you 'these are the best days of your life.' Listen to them!

I got a lot of candy and went on a sugar high.

Halloween is one of my favorite days of the year.
When all the good candy is in stores.
When all the good movies are on television.
When all the leaves are falling.
I just love it!

I can't believe it's already over. I cannot wait until next year.
Halloween Halloween
Come on baby SCREAM!!!!!!

Bad Words pt.2

2010-08-23T02:26:00.000-07:00

More words I'd like to never hear again: pwned, gooch, shizzle and preggers.
And a note to Dr. Laura: Black people Own the n-word. It's their's to use as they wish. If they wanna say it, they can. We can't! We're not black! It's offensive any way you use it! Come on people!

Bad Words

2010-07-03T05:17:00.000-07:00

The following words need to be banned from ever passing anyone's lips:

Amazing: It's never used correctly
Literally: Same as above
Amazeballs: What the hell?
Like: Used too much
Awesome: Never used correctly
Vajayjay: ?

I beg of anyone who reads this, Stop using these words!

Time

2010-06-12T12:27:00.000-07:00

Well, I turn 27 today.
Although, I feel like I have been 27 for quite a while already.
When you're little, time doesn't seem to exist.
It goes by so slowly.
When you turn 20, it seems to just fly by so fast.
1996 seems like last week to me.
1995 seems like last month.
Anything before that seems like a lifetime ago.
2000 feels like yesterday.
But for some reason, this last year has gone by so slow.
I feel like I should be turning 28 today.
But I'm 27.
That's good, I guess.
Kim and Wayne also turn 27 today.
Hope they have a great day.
I feel old already but I'm hoping to do a lot with my life, so I need to get rid of that old feeling.
I wanna live forever.
That's right.
I really do.
Life is good.
Thank God for another birthday. I hope to have many more.
And I can't wait for cake and Ice cream!

What Madonna Song Am I?

2010-06-02T19:18:00.000-07:00

You Are Like a Virgin

You have a wide-eyed optimism that most people envy and admire.
No matter what happens in life, it's hard for you to lose your innocence.

You love like it's the first time, even if you've been hurt many times before.
You believe that everyone deserves a fresh start, including you!

Westboro Baptist Church

2010-04-13T06:06:00.000-07:00

Just wanted to put in my 2 cents on The Westboro Baptist Church.
I've heard of many judgmental Christians, however, these people take the cake.
Jesus taught us NOT to judge.
A lot of Christians do just that.
I believe in Jesus. I believe that Jesus is the son of God. I pray everyday. I read the Bible.
But I do not consider myself a christian.
If Jesus were alive today, He would NOT be a christian!
The Bible also states that the only thing God hates is hate itself.
These people protest at soldiers funerals with signs that read 'Thank God for Dead Soldiers.'
They believe that God is punishing America for letting gays in the army.
First off, you CANNOT protest at a funeral.
I don't care if it's Osama Bin Laden's funeral.
If you believe in God, then you have to show him that you have respect for human life, even if the person is as fucked up as Osama, or these Westboro assholes.
Yeah I can call them fucked up assholes but I wouldn't protest at their funeral.

29 miner's died here in WV last week and they protested, saying 'God hates Miners.'
As I said, God hates hate and these people live their lives using God's name to spread hate which in my opinion, is the ULTIMATE EVIL!
These people will all burn in hell.
Do not become a member of this church and if you are one, GET OUT NOW.
In the end, God will have his say.

Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
(Matthew 5:43-47)

Linz Law

2010-02-23T23:09:00.000-08:00

Ok, so the local news anchor named Deborah Linz came up with this new law which was just passed here in Kanawha County.
Dogs are not allowed to be tied to a leash in your yard.
I understand where she is coming from and I have always found it cruel when people leave their dogs on a very small chain where they can't do much at all.
However, I see nothing wrong if your dog is on a leash (not a chain) and can reach all over your yard, with plenty of room.
My dog Bailey can reach very far into the yard. He has 3 dog houses and a heater in one.
Now with this new law, we have to build a pen to keep him in because they say that's okay.
Now he can't reach as far as he could and it makes me mad.
Yes, we could let him stay inside, however he makes a terrible house dog.
He's my baby and I love him but he's very messy.
I can't just let him run loose because the neighbors out here aren't very nice and he would probably end up dead.
I think if you're going to come up with a new law, you should at least think about what it could cause.
I think this is only going to result in many many many more animals being put in shelters and getting put to sleep.
Dogs that have never ran loose before will probably run off and get lost or get hit by a car or picked up by the dog catcher.
What about rottweilers and pittbulls and dog's that have a tendency to, you know, eat people???
As I said, I don't like leaving dogs on chains but if they are on a leash and can reach all over the yard and are properly taken care of, fed, watered, walked, played with, groomed, loved, then I think it's okay.
Also the leash Bailey is in is very thin, as is his collar so it's not uncomfortable to him.
This isn't gonna make cruel people any less cruel to animals.
I just think people should think about things before making it a new law.
Am I right or wrong?

End Of An Era

2010-01-12T14:37:00.000-08:00

So 2009 is over.
The decade is over.
A new one begins.

Looking back, it feels like 10 months more than 10 years.
Time really flies.
I've grown up a lot these past 10 years.
I'm still having my anxiety issues and still get depressed, but I am finally taking a medication that has changed my whole outlook and mood.
Thank God for that.
Also thanks to some incredible people I met in an aol chat/support group called Coffee Talk, run by an awesome guy named John.
These people have helped me through a lot and I am eternally grateful.
I know I wouldn't have had the courage to start my meds if it wasn't for them.
I also know I wouldn't have gotten a job without their encouragement.
Another huge thing for me is that I became a vegetarian in October 2005.
If it weren't for John and Ali, I don't think that would have happened.
I love all the members of Coffee Talk dearly and hope they stay in my life forever.

We've lost a lot of wonderful people and animals this past decade.
My grandpa, a few neighbors, my dog Oliver who we had since 1989, cats like Snowball, Charcoal, Mac & Friski, chickens like Robbie, Peanut, Freedom and Christine, cockatiels like Asa, Shelby, Twilight and Rhiannon, and our sweet rabbit Lucky, as well as many others.
R.I.P.
I love and miss you all dearly.

I just recently became a 'half-great uncle.'
Yep that's right.
My half sister's son is now a dad which makes me a 'half-great uncle.'
Wow I'm old!

Moving on to entertainment.....
I still cannot for the life of me believe that Michael Jackson is dead.
It feels like part of my childhood died, even though I wasn't a huge fan, I loved watching Thriller every Halloween on Mtv and introduced my nephews to it when they were older.
It's so hard to believe he's gone.

What a decade for Madonna!
She's my favorite, you know.
Her greatest album this decade has to be Confessions On A Dancefloor.
What a record!
She gave birth to Rocco in 2000 and adopted two children from Malawi.
We finally got most of her videos on the Celebration Dvd.
And The Sticky and Sweet Tour comes out on Dvd, Blu-Ray and Cd in March.
I can't wait!

It was great to finally get George W. Bush out of office.
He pisses me off.
And Obama made it!
That was awesome!
It felt like the country was finally getting smart, then along comes all these dumbass reality shows and people thinking it's cool to be stupid and have no common sense. Let's hope that goes out this decade!

I'm finally getting in shape and eating better.
I feel great.
I'm trying to sleep less.
I've applied for 2 jobs recently but have yet to hear from them.
My odd dreams have started again, but that's okay, they make me laugh.

My dog Bailey will be 13 years old on Valentine's Day.
It seems so unreal.
Oliver was 13 when he died and it does not seem like we've had Bailey that long.
Like I said, time sure flies.

I also started writing poetry and songs this past decade.
I'm not an excellent poet but it all comes from my heart and that's all that matters.

Ok now for my favorites of the decade:

Judgment

2009-12-10T15:37:00.000-08:00

I am so sick and tired of religious nuts on youtube, messaging me and saying I'm evil.

Yes, there is a song by Rob Zombie on my page entitled 'House of 1000 Corpses.'

Yes, there is a video of Nina Hagen dancing inside of a skull.

Yes, there is a video from the film 'The Wicker Man', which is a movie about some really messed up people.

Yes there is a little bit of "half-naked Madonna" on my page.

Yes, there is a video of Sinead O'Connor ripping up a picture of The Pope, which she did for a good reason (look it up).

I am interested in art.

That is what I consider music and video to be (at least the kind that I am interested in).

It IS art!

I doubt Rob Zombie actually has 1000 corpses in his home.

I doubt Nina Hagen has ever danced inside of a real skull.

I doubt Christopher Lee ever gathered up his gang of friends and burned a man and some animals inside of a wicker structure.

I'm sure Madonna does wear clothes most of the time.

And I highly doubt Sinead rips pics of The Pope everyday.

Just because I like this kind of art doesn't mean I do those things, geez!

Just because I wear black doesn't mean I'm a dark person.

Just because I have long hair doesn't mean I'm a drug addict or a killer, Jesus had long hair too!

Just because I enjoy Halloween and heavy metal doesn't mean I worship Satan.

See, Jesus taught us not to judge.

But that is what most christians do, they judge.

Which is why I don't consider myself a christian, although I do believe in Jesus Christ.

If Jesus were alive today, he would NOT be a christian!

I also read the Bible, and I pray everyday.

I am a good person and should not be judged based on what I wear or what kind of music or movies I like.

So let's stop the judging!

And youtubers, leave me alone and enjoy the music damn it!!!

Speaking Through Disappointments

2009-09-21T19:58:00.000-07:00

Speaking Through Disappointments
NUMBERS 14:17-24

Oftentimes, we become so focused on something or someone that we are unable to hear the Lord at all. In those times, one of God's most effective and yet painful ways to get our attention is through disappointments. Oh, how we dislike this method!

This is the way God spoke dramatically to the nation of Israel. In Numbers 14, He directed His people into the Promised Land. However, they were scared of the inhabitants, so they refused to enter. As a result, the Lord told the Israelites they'd "by no means see the land" for 40 years, until after that generation had died (v. 23).

Their disappointment was so great that they decided to change their minds. Sadly, though, it was too late; God had already settled the issue. And the people were distraught with grief because of what they had missed.

At that moment, in the heart of their disappointment, do you think God had their attention? Absolutely. The next time He gave Israel a command, don't you think they listened a bit more intently?

Tragically, failure is rather common in such situations. Instead of looking to God when disappointments occur, we are quick to blame circumstances, other people, fate, or even the Devil.

We are hesitant to believe that our loving Father could be responsible for our frustrations. Yet God is perfectly willing to use disappointments to realign our thoughts with His. Consider the difficulties in your life--might the Lord have been trying to say something in the midst of them?

The Elements In Me

2009-08-19T03:40:00.000-07:00

So I've been doing some thinking lately about the four big elements: Earth, Air, Fire & Water, and how they relate to my life.
I've always kind of considered myself a bit of an Earth child.
I care very much about nature, animals and the environment.
Yes, this world is a beautiful place. We only perceive it to be ugly and unkind because of the terrible things we as humans have done to it.

Air, to me, represents freedom, purity and life.
A wonderful song from The Cranberries comes to mind :

"Breathe the air, out there. We are free. We can be wide open."

That is something I have been trying to do with my life for years, albeit not trying hard enough.

Now we all have fire within' ourselves, don't we ?
Different people have different fires.
Anger, rage...maybe.
Fire can also represent our convictions.
Mine happens to be my belief in the rights of animals.
I can certainly get pretty fiery about it.
They are LIVING BEINGS just like you and I.

We must never let certain fires spread.
You know what I mean.
That's where water comes in.

Water to me represents healing i.e. baptism.
It's only necessary to put out our 'bad fires.'
Water is tranquility, peace, serenity, healing.
Healing is where life begins......

Well that's my philosophical bit for the day.
Maybe my next post will be something silly.

Long Weekend

2009-08-09T14:18:00.000-07:00

Well, it's certainly been a long weekend so far.
The electricity went off in the entire town due to a tree falling.
My nephew and I went to my Mom's house to spend the night.
We watched a lot of youtube videos.
We got bored and walked a long way to Wal-Mart at 3am.
We had to walk all the way back and we had been awake for way too long and had too much caffiene so we were totally out of our minds.
We danced in the road and yelled at passing cars and sang really loud.
I ended up with blisters on my feet.
I skinned my elbow a tiny bit when I fell in the road.
My whole body continues to ache, and I cannot seem to sleep at all.
I haven't been out of the house in ages so this took a lot out of me.
But I needed it.
It's now 11pm on Saturday and the power is back on.
I still can't sleep though.
Also, some other things triggered my anxiety and I've been worrying about a lot today.
But I'll be fine.
Hopefully I can get some sleep so my mind can return to me.
Until then..........

Well it's been a day since I wrote this blog and I finally got some sleep.
My legs still ache but I'm awake.
Feeling better.

Death

2009-07-30T06:59:00.000-07:00

I have strange dreams most of the time.
Last night I dreamt that I was in a place everyone called 'The Death Church.'

"To dream of your own death, indicates a transitional phase in your life. You are becoming more enlightened or spiritual." - dreammoods.com

"To dream that you are in a church, suggests that you are seeking for some spiritual enlightenment and guidance." - dreammoods.com

I was alone but had a creepy feeling I was being watched.
I found a book called 'The Death Book.'

"To see books in your dream, indicates calmness. You are moving toward your goals at a slow and steady pace." - dreammoods.com

I was scared.
I took the book and went outside and ran into a gas station.

"To dream that you are at the gas station, indicates a need to reenergize and revitalize yourself." - dreammoods.com

I don't remember what happened in the gas station but it doesn't really matter.
All these interpretations sound similar huh ?
Your dreams can tell you things you need to know.
It's time for a change.

Introduction

2009-07-29T07:29:00.000-07:00

Hi there.
My name is Thomas Delbert Harmon Jr.
I prefer 'Tommy.'
I'm 26 years old.
I live in Alum Creek, West Virginia.
I am a vegetarian.
I love and adore all types of animals and would love to work with them in some way.

I am also a huge music lover.
Madonna is my favorite.
I've loved her since 1991 and my obsession continues.

I've struggled with anxiety and depression since I quit school in 1997.
It was pretty rough for a while but I am now on medication (fluoxetine) which has helped me a lot.
I managed to work at a Golf Range for a while, thanks to my meds, but I ended up quitting, like most of us types do.
I will work again soon hopefully.

So I may talk about that and other topics such as religion, music, animal rights, television, spirituality and my wacky mind.
I wait till inspiration hits me.
Until next time...
