Pictures of my brain...

[annwfyn]

This...

...is what my brain looks like today. All cluttered up with broken bits that just seem to be reinforcing the other shards and splinters.

And I know the broken bits are all dead wood, stuff I need to just clear out, but it just seems very difficult today.

The particularly annoying bit is that I know that many many people I know are having a far worse time than me at the moment. I'm just people-stressed, and money-stressed, and game-stressed and change-stressed, and somewhere along the line, I've started to crack along the joints.

And in a less metaphorical and more literal way, I got a parking ticket this morning coz I forgot to move my car last night, and now do not have the petrol money to go and see my li'l sis and her new house in Hertfordshire.

This makes me decidedly unhappy.

Why not get a resident's parking permit?

Originally because they required paperwork we didn't have - specifically I needed a utility bill in my name + car registration certificate in my name, and when we first moved here, I didn't have that.

Then because it became easy to park in the McDonalds car park, which is just across the road, and a resident's permit would cost £86, which we've not had going spare for a while due to me being a student and jez changing jobs.

Then because I'm lazy and it seemed easier to park in McDonalds than get together paperwork, send it off, wait, or trudge across London to the requisite building.

In general, I don't put the car out on the road. Last night I was expecting to drop jez off at the house and then go out again to do a food shop, but got distracted, people came round and I forgot. It's just not been a problem before, so I've always felt as if I could do better things with £86.

I now, of course, realise this may have been a false economy, as if I get caught again, I'll have paid more in parking fines than I would have done for that damn ticket!

Most peoples brains are like that picture, it's just most people don't even recognise it!

Try some meditation?

I can email you a guided mind calming mp3 meditation if it will help!

That would be cool. surinen@gmail.com is best for big files.

I'm OK a lot of the time. I just tend to accumulate mental crap and then get stressed by it.

How are you doing, btw? And did you ever find a home for your spare cat?

Email will be whistling it's way to you soon!

I know the feeling - I think we all do from time to time! I find meditating helps me a lot!!

I'm good! Nervous about the prosect of the coming few months - we both are! The cats are still with us, it's not a problem - I love having them around! I would rather have them here than have them go to a charity or a home I wasn't happy with. A lot depends on where I end up living later on this year though!

How are you??

In the picture, there's a couple of things that caught my eye. Lower left, there's what looks like a man standing, in a long coat, and at the top, near the center, there's a skull like face...

They're just tricks of the light, but they still make me wonder what else is there...
