A number of years back I read some of Edgar Cayce’s books. (He was called the
"sleeping prophet".) (He was pretty weird!) (Anyway, one thing he talked about
was Atlantis. (Supposedly the people on earth now, also lived then. (We are here at the
same juncture as we were then, to see if we can avoid destroying ourselves again.)) (He
said that Atlantis was destroyed as an outgrowth of an involvement with electro-magnetism,
which got out of control. That always baffled me because I couldn’t find anything in
my studies of science that attributed that kind of power to electro-magnetism. (In the
latest "Readers Digest"
there is a little blurb about how scientists are trying to build an anti-matter engine.
They are having problem though because, if even one proton of anti-matter contacts our
world, there would be an enormous explosion. In order to deal with that they are
experimenting with using electro-magnetic fields as a container for the anti-matter. (That
would explain Cayce’s comment. (If they were using anti-matter as a power source, any
flaw in the electro-magnetic containers would have been catastrophic.))))
D O came and sat on my lap for awhile. (Amazing!)
I suppose, considering Jim’s comment that he would like to date other women, Charlotte being jealous isn’t totally unfounded.
(10am) Laundry time again.
(1pm) Oh yes, on our walk Monday, Miranda commented that Erica needs to slow down her spending. (Living alone is a lot more expensive than sharing a place, and she is going to have to make changes in her budget.) (She also complained about how expensive her place is. I suggested that she share a place with Erica; but she said they spend so much time together already, she thought it best not to live together.)
There was an interesting article on Albert Ellis in "Psychology Today": "… the vast majority of humans, in every part of the world, are much more disturbed than they have to be because they simply will not accept themselves as fallible, incessantly error-prone humans."
(2pm) Horniness is annoying sometimes! (I wonder how many more years until sex returns to my life on a regular basis?) (It would be nice if it didn’t take years, but it would be too depressing to hope for finding love any time soon.) (Not being in a hurry and learning to be alone have sure made my life happier! (When I was desperate and trying, all I found was frustration and depression.)-(And, I was a drag to be around because I was always lost in depression and feeling sorry for myself. (That in turn made it even more unlikely for me to find a lover.))-(Becoming content with solitude and happier hasn’t brought me many lovers; but it has made me into someone people are willing to spend more time with.))
(5pm) I ate three x-tops and started dinner.
I let D O out around 1pm and she is still out and about.
I am going to go to Bozeman with Helen and Beth from the Court. (That will be different.) (Beth says we won’t be back Monday because she is going to make me stop at every bar in between Bozeman and Missoula, on the way back.)
(7pm) Making love sounds like a nice idea right now. (Oh well, think of something else before I get sad! (I am good at that! (My mind seems to drift to sex with little encouragement and I have got lots of practice at shifting to other topics.)))
