When One Has to Be Patient

 I have a roommate who assists me with my webcasts.   Ideally, I would be the one taking all of that into account but since I don't know his passwords, I cannot use his computer and make my own webcasts.  Having a studio is sensational but lacking access can be a little obnoxious.    It's a contradiction, I do admit but to be candid, I'm unbothered.    I know I have to bide my time and wait for my roommate to have a burst of inspiration and work alongside me or my webcasts will never be filmed.    I'm used to this by now because I know how my roommate operates.    His personality when it comes to work is far different than mine.   I don't shame him for having ADHD.   It's like faulting someone who's born within the autistic spectrum.    Being neurodivergent myself, I completely understand this better than 'typical' people.   I'm not trying to sound high and mighty here, but the 'playbook' for us 'weirdoes' throws us a plethora of curveballs, and we have had to adapt.   Luckily, we're pretty good at it. 

    Anyway, back to the reason why I am writing this blog.   Yesterday hit me like a sucker punch to the gut.   I had to decline my trip to Greece because of my current circumstances.   Oh, it stung, worse than anything I have ever felt because I have always wanted to travel to the first cradle of civilization.   I know a lot of Italians would argue with me there.  I love Italy, but they stole immensely from the Greeks.   

    Not all hope is lost because Cosmos Travel does offer more than one tour, and I vouched for excursions as I did initially.    Now, I don't receive a cash refund, but I do, however, receive credit for a future tour.  When I thought of this, it made more sense.   My initial trip would've occurred around Orthodox Easter, probably the worst time to travel to Greece (if you know anything about the sacred fire, you'll understand why I am saying that).   I would've loved to have seen the procession and touched the fire myself, but I think a trip in the fall would be ideal.   Not only is it the off season but fewer people are probably heading to the Mediterranean.    I have hope I can still go, and I feel very optimistic in spite of everything.    

I am going to learn how to become a travel agent.  I may have burned my bridge with Dream Vacations.   Their downpayment for their program is astronomical (to the point it's unbelievable and outrageous) but this won't deter me.    Whatever it takes, I'm going to follow my dreams.

Conky's Newest Feat

Synopsis: Conky needs help in finding a job to support his new family. Herman remembers when he and the others made their first newspaper together; Conky wrote business news, so it is suggested that he get a job as a stock trader. Chapter 1--The Moment Everything Changed Like any proud and expectant father, Conky was nervously pacing, wringing his manacles and nearly hyperventilating. ‘Sugar gears, I’m gonna be ok.’, SICO reassured him in her southern drawl.   That was until the contractions came and she wanted to rip his arm out and beat him with it for having impregnated her in the first place.   The birthing of the children happened in such fast succession it was almost difficult to keep up. The first child to enter the world, looking much like SICO only smaller, was a girl. Her cry was feminine but soft.    ‘Let’s name her Amica…’, Conky suggested.   Right after her, Dextro came into the world, loud, wailing and needing extra cu...

Wedding at the Playhouse

Synopsis: Continuing from "Pajama Party at the House of Mouse", Herman Norman "Pee-Wee Herman" Ruebens and his beloved, Yvonne Chambers, are finally getting married. “ L is for the way you look at me, O is for the only one I see, V is very, very, extraordinary. You’re the one that I adore, no one could ever want you more.’--Lyrics from L-O-V-E as sung by the often imitated but never duplicated Nat King Cole “A life without love isn’t worth living. What’s life without love ? It’s a tree that bears no fruit. It’s sleeping without dreaming. At times, it’s the inability to sleep. It’s living one day after another waiting for the sun to shine into a room that’s completely painted black, where you know the key is but have no desire top open the door and go out.”--Karla, Hippie, Paulo Cohelo Chapter 1—The Most Romantic Wedding of All It was Yvonne Chambers, soon to be Ruebens, favorite day of the year. Ever since she had ...

The Slo Mo, Voiceless Leader

  Synopsis: An AU/reboot of Sonic Underground, the third and final Sonic cartoon produced by DiC Entertainment. The "good" Robotnik from the episode "Six is a Crowd" meets the evil one. In a backstory, the three hedgehogs appear to come across the Oracle of Delphius (actually an evil clone created by the evil Robotnik) who forces Sonic to make a deal - his voice and speed in exchange for being with Sonic's beloved Amy Rose, whom Robotnik deceives Sonic into thinking he cannot marry, as he is a royal and she is a commoner. It is up to the good Robotnik, as well as the hedgehogs' (formerly evil counterparts) to help save Sonic. The royal firstborn blue hedgehog also figures out King Jules' and Queen Aleena's location at long last!   Dedicated to the true voice of Sonic, Jaleel White.
