Caregiving Article
http://TwitPWR.com/…ngarticle/
I assure you that if my mother ever saw this article, she would want to hunt down the author and strangle them. She has been caring for my increasingly handicapped father for four and a half years, ever since he had his first stroke in June of 2004. With the stress levels from caring for a severly handicapped person (not in the capacity of an assistant, but as a family member who has devoted themselves to such a cause) I don't see how it could be as beneficial as the authors describe.

At this point I'm either an agnostic or a gnostic Pagan Buddhist depending on what day you catch me on. In other words, if there is a creator deity (or multiple deities) then it wants us to be decent to each other is my philosophy!

A Necessary Sacrifice
Two things prompted a decision that's been needing to come for a while. The first and more constructive one is advice that one person was giving another, but it actually had "me" written all over it. The advice was
"you should take a look at the absurd list of tasks you have created for yourself."
I did, and my list is indeed absurd. People with bipolar disorder have a tendency to do this kind of thing to themselves. We throw ourselves headlong into anything that seems like a good idea at the time without really thinking it through and then hate ourselves for failing.
My list includes working on my second book, tending to an official website and blogs and such to promote the first book, being the administrator for a new social network and Twitter-style microblog service for creative, esoteric, open-minded types, working a full time job, and going to school part time. The affiliate marketing was supposed to be a way to make extra money and for a while it was kind of fun even though the extra dough did not exactly roll in, but it's been more burden than fun for several months now.
The second factor that pushed the decision was actually a comment made by an anonymous LOSER on the Kill My Job blog at http://twitpwr.com/affiliate about how much my blog sucks. I happen to know this individual is a loser because of their cowardly hit-and-run anonymous comment and the fact that if they weren't a loser, they'd be too busy with their own life to be leaving cowardly hit and run comments. My response was admissibly juvenile as hell, and yet I must say, funny. It began with "By Satan's balls." Nuff said.
Not that I am kowtowing to anonymous Loser. Frankly, I could give a rat's butt if people think KMJ or any of my blogs/websites/projects suck. But the fact is, I don't have time to work on that blog. I'll continue to keep it as a repository for certain of my utters, but I'm not going to devote any time to it beyond that at this point. As of today, it is officially retired or on permanent vacation.
I will continue to promote certain of the affiliate products I discovered that I really like, such as the Ultimate Recipe Collection (http://TwitPWR.com/…aterecipe/) through utters and Twitter, but am no longer going to make a concerted effort in the affiliate marketing field. What I've been doing is more than a touch too much. I need to concentrate on my literary and activist efforts, spreading the word about religious tolerance and better mental health care worldwide.
So if there's a lesson that I'd like to impart from this it's the old "to thine own self be true." If you're doing too many things, evaluate what really has meaning for you and then throw yourself into that wholeheartedly.
Thanks for "listening." Peace to you.

And just what does THIS say about me??
I know y'all will think this is crazy given my metaphysical beliefs and my love of heavy metal music, but I actually LIKE the show "Touched By an Angel." I shoulda been a Gemini, astrologically, as often as I find myself conflicting with myself this way. But I don't have Gemini anywhere in my chart. For the basics, I have an Aquarius sun with Aquarius rising and a Leo moon. I have Virgo and Scorpio in my chart. I think the Scorpio is in Saturn and the Virgo is in Mars. But no Gemini to speak of.
Honestly, I like it when people have eclectic tastes. Personally, I'm tired of apologizing for mine. Like Popeye sez, I Yam What I Yam.

What is this "sleep" stuff you speak of?
I used to work for a group called Whattheflip Inventory Service. Ok, it really wasn't Whattheflip, but it did start with W. Thus, the initials were WIS. We employees joked that this stood for "what is sleep?" I haven't worked for this organization in eleven years, but I still find myself asking this same question all the time!

Dungeons and Bagels
http://TwitPWR.com/…treasures/ Time for a few rounds with my favorite game, #Dungeons and #Treasures, before I brave the cold (10 degrees fahrenheit) to go get some bagels. No fear about my son having gained the #Freshman 15--the food in the canteen where he goes to school is tolerable at best on a good day. To quote my son: "#Taco #Bell is good food compared to their food." In fact he looked like he lost weight. Not like he needed to--at last check he was 6'1" and 145 pounds. Now he'll be able to eat some good food for a while. I'll admit to spoiling him a bit. I always enjoy his company when he's home.

Son Home for Holidays
http://TwitPWR.com/personal/
My son is home until January 11. Some of you know about the difficulties he had earlier in the semester that put him behind (he was hospitalized for a week) there is good reason why I think Fort Lewis College is a great school. So he wouldn't end up on academic probation for a situation that wasn't his fault, his counselor advised him to withdraw from his classes and take them again next semester. Yeah, this puts him on the 5 year plan but gives him a real good fresh start. And it shows that Fort Lewis is a place that really is about their students succeeding, not just about taking their money. If you're young and wondering what college you should go to, put Fort Lewis on your list of must check out's. http://www.fortlewis.edu/

Using Twitter and Utterli for contacts
The microblogs Twitter and Utterli are not only tools for keeping in touch with online friends, they are promotional tools. Some of you may already be using these.
For those who are new to microblogging or who haven't heard of the less well-known Utterli, you can post short messages, including links using these services. The easiest way is to sign up for both and then post your messages in Utterli and have it cross-post to Twitter so you don't have to type the same thing twice, as Utterli has this ability. You can also cross-post to Blogger, Flickr, You Tube, and I believe Word Pad or Type Pad and Live Journal, and you can link Utterli to your Facebook profile.
If you are a writer or performance artist or market any kind of product or service, we can help each other by following each other on Twitter and Utterli as well. Or we can just have fun. I use my pen name (Lily Strange) rather than my affiliate marketing name (Jobkiller) as I initially started using these services to promote my book. I'm good with having a ton of blogs but having a ton of microblog profiles too would only drive me over the edge of insanity for certain!
For artistic types (artists, writers, musicians) there is also Humble Voice. I almost gave up on it at first--the platform isn't the easiest to use. But once I got the hang of it, I liked it. I've posted several poems and paragraphs to my albums. I have not, however, figured out how to change my profile. I've been getting spams to my inbox from girls looking for a sugar daddy! If that's your kind of thing, you may be rushing to sign up for Humble Voice toot sweet just for that! But considering that I'm straight and have neither the means nor the desire to be a sugar mama anyway, I just think it's funny.
My Facebook profile is http://www.facebook.com/people/Lily-Strange/1653291128
You freaks might also want to join Vampire Freaks. Not just for vampire fans, also a good place for bands, artists and writers to promote themselves.
And don't forget about my place for those "of a mind" or at least of an open mind when it comes to the paranormal. Come...be among your own kind. Leave the pig faced people to their pig faced world. Being a freak is beautiful!
My Twitter profile is http://twitter.com/lilystrange and my Utterli profile is http://www.utterli.com/lilystrange
If you'd like to follow each other on these services, go ahead and leave a comment with your Twitter and Utterli profile links and I'll follow you!

“We played a full half, Pappa,” Kristina said. “And we only beat you by a point.”
“So age and skill ties youthful enthusiasm,” Lennart said, sitting down next to his son on the grass. “My legs may not have the speed they used to but I still have the eyes of a nearsighted hawk. I caught most of ‘em.”
“You’ve still got it, Pappa,” Per agreed. “And I’ve got it too. Sore, aching muscles, that is! Serena! Bring the liniment! I’m dying here!”

Shameless, shameless, shameless
Yes, this is a plug. But I recommend this service. I've found some really great obscure/underground stuff that you don't find on most of the big sites like Rhapsody or Napster. And everything I say here is the truth. They accept customers from most countries. And I promise that the downloads are safe. Hell, I just got my computer back after a big crash--I wouldn't do this if it was going to give me a virus! Plus, no shitty spyware. It's all good, peeps. Check it out!
Find everything from the latest to obscure stuff that you've been searching for. MP3SALE is the site that has it! Download a whole album worth of tunes for about a buck in many cases. Less expensive than many of the bigger sites and completely legal. Rip CD's for your friends and family. Create mixes they'll love for a one-of-a-kind, low-cost gift that both you and they will appreciate in these tough economic times.

It's been HOW long?
Great googly-moogly! It's been since the beginning of September or something. I want to try to get back to posting a chapter a month. Because you lovely people deserve it. Or at least I'll pretend you do. In the meantime, if you have a blog to promote, you can join Blogerella. It's new and it's cool. You don't have to surf a bunch of sites, just put a cool widget like I have at the bottom of this post and in my sidebar on your blog.
My blog is rated R, because I use words like Great Googly-Moogly!
(actually, it's because of things like my harpooning the sickos who find my blog by looking for nephew-aunt incest. Which we still do not have here!)
Anyway, you really should look at Blogerella. It's a place where you can get some exposure for your very own blog, and it's better than a lot of the other Blog Promo sites. So go there already!
