Time:2:02 am.
Mood: stressed.
Music:The Fixx - Built for the Future (12" Rock Version).
therapy tomorrow... second session with the new therapist. still spinning wheels, it seems. putting off taxes- why? forms, forms, gotta be the forms- hate forms. ought to be sorting though boxes, too. it feels so unproductive- open a box, pull it all out, can't figure out what to keep, what to give away, what to toss. then it all goes back in the box; feels like not a bloody thing gets accomplished.

fenix got downsized, and nothing new to fill the gap, yet. frustrating. job market and work in general seem fickle, unreliable. last car died; have payments on a new one, and no prospects for a new job for fenix, yet. he keeps checking, looking, calling, interviewing... nothing. trying to keep him from getting depressed, too.

feh.

how to express an amorphous sensation in a coherent pattern of letters and words... wouldn't that be antithetical? better to speak a cloud... an anvilesque cumulonimbus...

tenebrous, tenuous, tense

too many pills, not enough cure... but how do you cure a wound that has so long been a part of you that you've grown compleatly around it... surround it... where does it end, and you begin?

pensive, pent... manic... depressive... confused

Can you hear my heart beat in this bond
Do you know that behind of this bond
Lies the deep desire I'm in love hey
Make a wonderful love if I may
All my dreams to be all I can do
Only I love, only love
And you say I knew we should find a new way
Make a wonderful love if I may

Can you hear my heart beat in this hurt
Do you know that behind of this hurt
Lies the deep desire I'm in love hey
Make a wonderful love if I may
All my dreams to be all I can do
Only I love, only love
And you say I knew we should find a new way
Make a wonderful love if I may

Can you hear my heart beat in this hurt
Do you know that behind of this hurt
Lies the deep desire can you love hey
Make a wonderful love if I may

Make a wonderful love if I may
Make a wonderful love if I may
Can you hear my heart beat in this hurt
Can you hear my heart beat in this hurt

Short form, though: Grim is no longer the Master of two of ^us. We're still friends, but we are no longer together. ^We're living in Florida, once again, after far, far too long. It's good to be home.

Subject:my god... it's full of stars...
Time:7:20 pm.
Mood: loved.
Music:Love Spirals Downwards - Avincenna.
Still with Grim (and still madly in love)... we've added a new person to our lives, drache... *bliss*

Received the final installment of backpay last month, and bought a refurbished tablet PC... hoping to use the remainder as originally planned: either to bring Grim stateside, or go to Australia again.

... we're... going to be grandparents... still trying to wrap my brain around that one... Grandpa, Grandie, and Auntie Drache... um, does this mean I might have to change a diaper again at some point? I'm afraid...

Subject:thinking...
Time:9:28 pm.
Mood: confused.
Music:Peter Gabriel - I Have the Touch.
...can lead to anxiety. better to be disjointed, not thinking, unfocused.

"Pull my chin, stroke my hair, scratch my nose, hug my knees
Try drink, food, cigarette, tension will not ease
I tap my fingers, fold my arms, breathe in deep, cross my legs
Shrug my shoulders, stretch my back - but nothing seems
To please

I need contact
I need contact
Nothing seems to please
I need contact"

Subject:happy year of the monkey
Time:3:28 am.
Mood: accomplished.
Music:Peter Gabriel - Rhythm of the Heat.
started a bank account, bought a car, have a phone on order (which should be arriving today), paid part of back rent... need to talk to DFACS about help with medicare premiums and about disability income which should be starting in February.

edited DJ profile a little... am supposed to be getting remainder of disability backpay in 2 more installments, 6 and 12 months hence, respectively... intend to use some of each payment to be with Aidan.

not receiving SSI; will be making too much from SSDI (apparently just over $500/month is too much)... limits ideas of moving elsewhere, unless assistance for housing is available, or a roommate. focus is on clearing hurdles to move to Australia, at this point.

Subject:what waits on the other sides of windows?
Time:9:28 pm.
Mood: tired.
Music:Tori Amos - Tear in Your Hand.
wasn't much of one to begin with, but the sleep schedule is off again. just posted something written last night; edited time to reflect time of writing.

have been unravelling quite a bit over the past few days. have therapy in 4 days; also have appointment with DFACS in 3, and phone appointment with SSA 1/2 hour before therapy. everything happens in clumps. wonder if the wounds will still be as ragged and open in 4 days time?

9 years to the day since the first car accident to cause back damage to our body. strange to think so much time has passed. need to apply for medicaid, and to see doctors again. many things have been put on hold for the past few years; want to get caught up.

Subject:can't sleep, clowns will eat me
Time:6:50 pm.
Mood: anxious.
Music:Weird Al - Amish Paradise.
blood-stained and bruised
the wounds self-inflicted now
tearing apart all the scars
a skein of wounds and fear
all kept so tightly wrapped

a word to bring on the pain
a torrent of voices like knives
unravelling a perfect disguise
the architecture mad
a minefield, a void, and worlds

no meter, no rhyme to frame
the terror kept locked within
anxiety warring with sleep
the is no such thing as safety
who are you and what do you want?

still in a state of "suspended animation"... received a notice of decision - fully favourable, but must wait for another office to contact regarding benefits and possibly further information.

must try to make plans, even in the absence of concrete information about pension. need to take the cat to the vet, go to the dentist, see a doctor (or three), get a name change, passport, plane ticket, decide where to move (getting away from here is a must). off to do a little research.
