Many years ago, I made a decision. One that was NOT easy to begin with, but has grown on me over the last decade. I chose the bachelor life, but even more so, I committed a form of Social Suicide: I went off grid, moved several hundred miles away, and ( until recently, and for a very short time) cut all ties to that past. (with the exception of my daughter, who has faded from society as well, including mine,,, Her reasons, unknown to me, but I respect that,,, And I hope she knows that the door is ALWAYS open for her and my granbehbies.)
I locked the beast away, down a dark hallway of my mind/soul,
I had to. The other options were ‘unpleasant’.
Sadly, Big Country IS where I was headed if I hadn’t made the choices I did then.
My choices are not for everyone.
My choices made because I don’t handle the drama of our modern world with any grace. I tell it like it is. I am uncouth in my language UNTIL, I am no longer playing around, when I go succinct and calculated with my wording. BUT, I have no time for being the diplomat, I will tell you to your face that you are being a shitheel that needs to have ‘its’ face redecorated with the floor’ preferably while said floor is covered in broken glass.
Some people get it. Others run screaming.
And with the perma-resting bitch face I sport,,,,
Let me rephrase part of that earlier passage. There are many times where I don’t ‘Tell it like it is’, but those times, I say NOTHING AT ALL, because if I were to open up, its going to be with BOTH BARRELS and with the supercharge 8 loads of a niner-eight loosing a RAP round. Bystanders would lose skin from the muzzle flash,,,,or as some would say, ‘thats gonna leave a mark,,,’
Damned straight it will.
Billy; in your email, you asked for advice. I’m sorry bro, I am on the same page as you for what you WISH to do, and the etiquette of this situation is well beyond me. I have nothing to add other than “TRY” to keep it within legal parameters AND KEEP YOUR ASS OUT OF JAIL/PRISON. We need you out here, as much as you need your Granbehbie back.
Unfortunately, we don’t live in the world we grew up in, that we signed up to defend when we all went DOTMIL, and what we sorely wish we still had. The fact that this situation is even plausible in this day and age, let along actually happening, sickens me. BUT, its not the first i have seen, as I have stated here before. B’s son, )My brudder my anudder muther B) was a similar situation and the only reason Bubbie is here in this reality today was intervention by B and T, which led to his being adopted by them,,, And there is my Tech Buddy in Tennessee whose sons are trapped in that Fostercare System in Tennessee, all because of a schizophrenic ex-spouses word against him,,, He has been fighting for well over two years now that I know about.
ME, There’d be a stack of bodies and that does the children zero good. Keep that in mind BCE: your being incarcerated is FAR worse and would condemn her to the hell you are trying to rescue her from. Stay the course, pull out the stops on the legal schmeagle stuff, and we will keep supporting you as we can, how we can.
Get her back, THEN you can find your hillside for solace,
You have an intriguing story. Things have gone to shit for me over the last 30 months. Health and family. I’m not too mystical, but this is the third time I’ve run into this idea… And thanks for your comment over at Bill’s house. I’m worried for the man. He’s in a tough spot.

I worry for him too, and worse yet, can completely empathize with the seething anger he has. As my dear bride has noted, when I am done, I am indeed done. Doesn’t always work out for the best. Going nuke will feel good, really good, but just for that moment. Praying he gets the guidance he needs, and is able to avail himself to it when it comes. The background noise of the world right now is an amplifier for the other things that go wrong in our daily lives, a mist of gasoline waiting to be ignited.
