i think the closer t time is, the more anxious i get, yet i'm quite calm. i would have figured me to be in a hypertensive mode, trying to accomplish a lifetime's array of workskills. there's no sense of time. probably because time 'there' is different than 'time' here. i too am taking the added extra time to reflect on what exactly i'll be missing. i keep having these senseabilities to settle. i figure we're using about half of my alotment. imagine that, a wallet full of favors.
there's also this urge to tell the tale of Q. before the beginning, the begining, the now and tomorrow, and then the end. consolation. there's more reward than that isn't there? there should be great rewards for those things where the achievement was not easy. i'll betcha there's a bean counter on life. and i wonder how many people would argue with him. or her. i'm not sexist here. i should tell the tale of Q tho. and i'm starting him back in 1970. pre-chicago days. that's when i first was sent away from home. for being a bad boy. i joy-rode my parents' 1958 buick super. i remember driving that car. remember it well actually. nothing major in my life occured during that time, other than first timers. i lost my virginity in more ways than one during my stay at durand boys farm school. that's when the Q first made himself known to me. and boy have i had the time of my life ever since. well in the last decade maybe not. you can tell me. take a gander. that's just my time in this house.
but i know i'm close, so close i can smell it. sweet smell of death. i wonder death really is sweet, or am i jus satisfying some sweet tooth urge i have. i always thought death stunk. probably from people's released waste. i would expect the clothes to be dirty. but other than that, i see very little in way of having to 'prop' me up in any way. i'll go to bed normal. i jus hope i can get to sleep as easy. that'll be the true telling of how good of a life i've led. now wouldn't it. worried about what will happen because i led an evil life, jus won't happen on my watch. now whether i'm disqualified from the finals in other ways... i wouldn't put it past the ol' son of a bitch to use some simple misuderstandings to ruse a case against my enrollment at the heavenly school for delinquent boys.
so, it's as close as close gets. i'm sure there will be more insights into my thinking during this most crucial time of my life. there's a lot of shit that's getting packed away so they'll be alive for generations to come. i'm archiving the irc logs of #interport and #mindvox. then there's my diaries that go back to 2000. and i've got 86-06, the latter years after 2000 aren't repeats of organizer files that start around that time. these are two sets of files kept, but it should be a good checker of facts.
but it's all coming to an end. hopefully with a smile on my face. i think i've got a pretty decent plan, even tho it got off to a rocky start. oh well. mercy home care could have taken the opportunity that was presented before them, and use that to garner more information on what makes a man tick during a time like that. in the prelude to death. how many other preludes are out there - probably a lot so i should jus let it drop. we'll conclude this prelude with a proverb. lo are the seekers of life. for they are the ones who best live it.
but i've had a wonderful life. a very full life, one that couldn't be repeated if one tried with a million dollars. i certainly wouldn't trade it away, regardless of where i'd be if i were to buy into that bologna. i think that's how it's spelled. nope, i wouldn't trade it for a million dollars. i jus wish there were things like diaries back in 1970 when i went to durand boys farm schhol i learned a lot about life at that school. being transferred to eldora boys training school was a step down in the scale of things. they couldn't keep a faggot at the boys farm school, so it was determined that i be kept in iowa's training school for delinquent boys. these were criminals to delinquent youth in eldora. but they finally transferred me to the mental health institute because being gay was a sickness back then. so i spent like 8 months in the institute and they didn't know what to do with me, couldn't send me back home into that situation again, so they kept me back in eldora till i turned 17. at age 17.5 i was released to go to marshalltown community college. did well on the ged.
but i don't wanna go into my life on this forum. i'll save that for hitchhiker. keep hitchhiker alive.
