analog 47



  Date: Tuesday, January 8, 1999 

these are excerpts from various emails and posts i've written in the last week or so:

woke up at 4am and can't sleep. dunno why. kept having really shallow dreams dealing with trivial crap. annoying.pooka and deiter( deiter is my new puppy! go see his webpage at "hello.to/deiter. for that matter go see pooka's webpage at "hello.to/pooka" ) r getting along..i feel glad he has a friend 2 play with so i don't feel guilty when i'm too busy. it's hard 2 believe deiter will grow up 2 be bigger than pooka..judging from his parents. deiter is more of a dog dog. but pooka is like a flaming gay royal dog of great delicacy, grace and gentleness.deiter likes to chew stuff and is more dopey, but very kind and loving. but he's still a puppy, perhaps he will get less dopey as he gets older. i dunno, i never had a puppy when it was this young ( 14 weeks).it's still unusually warm here for being december, it feels like fall.i'm not complaining! :) I HATE WINTER! i've decided that as soon as the agreements with the banners i have up now are over, i'm not going to have any more banners..at least not on the main page. i've decided that it's just too ugly( except for the imusic one..i like that one! but basically any banners of any sort just BUG me), even though the $ i got for those banners bought me my new computer i needed so desperately...i only want to contribute beauty and 2 inspire..and i think seeing those banners on anacam is uninspiring. had 2 try it out tho, and i am greatly appreciative of my new computer! :)i'm going 2 totally redo the look of anacam..sometime around the middle of january..that's when the last banner runs out. i can't wait!i'm scared about the money thing...but i know that if i follow my heart, that will lead 2 the greatest fulfillment and ultimately abundance :)so i'm saying no to the obvious money making way, and going 4 beauty again. then if i don't get more members, i might have to change the refresh on anacam to every 10 minutes. i'm still working that one through. god, i've so much 2 say..but all of a sudden i realized it was such boring stuff like..i need a desk 4 my computer..bla bla bla. and there's SO much i want 2 say about "stuff" that i just cannot say because i could get in trouble. but the day will come when i can finally SAY IT. ( do i sound like art bell now?) LOL don't worry, my life is not in danger or anything. it's business stuff, and that's all i'll say for now. i'm thinking that perhaps i should write a book about my life...kind of a "the world according to garp"-eque. i should reread that. i don't know how 2 go about writing it. i know i can write..but to put it down in a linear way? i've never written anything LONG. i don't know how to begin it or end it. but i know i want it to be a kind of "how 2 survive if u r a weirdo" book. kind of spiritual but funny...like...a book that asks "what is success"? 'cause i certainly can't end the book on "and then she ROSE out of obscurity and became the next madonna with her best selling album, she now lives in beverly hills and does yoga everyday" i mean my album is selling less and less each week and before u feel sorry for me DON'T! i want it 2 b a book that makes people laugh and go..ya! i don't have 2 b a "success" 2 b a success, and life is just weird and we plonder through it having strange and mundane adventures.i dunno, maybe my life would make a BORING book. i guess i'm afraid it could. and there's SO much i wish i could write in it that i can't ( family members would be pissssssssed)and do i write that i ? or do i omit that? 'cause i don't want my mom freaking on me any more than she already does! ya, mom, i ! true! i guess i'm leaning towards omitting it, as it's really not THAT important. but then..it is, too sort of. it's hard 2 try to write a book and i haven't even started! anyone have any suggestions?do i just start writing and sort it out later? i think it'd be cool if it actually DID get published and read and then when people went 2 my cam they'd have some sort of CONTEXT to see me in. like..oh, i guess she DID have a "real job" and "pay her dues" etc.i guess maybe what i should do is write it for myself, pretend that i'm talking to myself or something..then i won't worry about WHO would want to read it..if i like it..then that's what counts..and the rest will follow or not follow from there.i wish i knew how 2 type. perhaps i should get one of those voice typing things.i really wish i had a writer friend who could steer me in the best writing direction. someone who would give me my writing "assignment" each day.i really want 2 get back to writing in my journal everyday like i used to. i used to write in one every day since the age of 22.then as soon as i got into the computer, i stopped, 'cause i wrote it all down in email. i have all the email saved, i just have to print it out...YEARS worth.i thought my analog would be my diary, but it didn't turn out that way, 'cause there are things u just can't tell all of the world if u want to keep your friends! i can't write "my friend buffy was a real bitch to me today" or "my friend trebor told me he was gay today"'cause they'd just KILL me, y'know? or i can't write about how sucks sometimes, 'cause i know she looks at my page sometimes..she FREAKED about some of my anagrams. the "blessed iz thee divine whore" thing and all :)didn't really fly too well.but then can i say these things in a book? it's a delicate situation! maybe this is how woody allen makes his movies? i dunno.i now have TWO more bbs! so now i have seven, now counting the bbs for deiter and pooka...or my newsgroup, or this mailing list.do i have the most bbs of anyone ? i'd like to know WHO has the MOST bbs? is there a way to find out? there must be a weird statistic like that somewhere.should i consolidate or post on them all? woo hoo! :)post post here post post there here a post there a post everywhere a post post! now it's almost 6:30am..i don't want 2 b up now! it's still DARK outside! then i'll fall asleep in the afternoon, then i'll not b tired when night comes, then i'll be back to staying up until 5am. and i like that, but i don't.oh, and if any of u are wondering about my weird hairdo, 'cause no one seems to like it except jason..it is an INBETWEEN thing! where that circle of white hair is..when it's long enough, i'm going to get extensions put on there. big long braids of many natural shades.a fountain of sorts. :) maybe everyone will hate that, too..but i like to try new things.thing was that happened is that 3 hours before i had 2 b at the airport 2 do that talk show in seattle, i bleached my hair a bit too furiously, and it melted off my head! so, in a fit of creative panic, i left a circle of white hair on my head..i just could BARE to part with ALL of it! :)then i put rhinestomes around the circle and i looked like i walked out of babylon 5 :) my cams are down right now. my isp has flaked out, and my dsl lines have been down for 3 days now. i'm on my back up isp.at least it's stuck on a nice pic.the caption sez:what did u want 2 b when u "grew up" and what r u now? so i ask of u that!

------------------------------------------------------------------------

i started a new feature to ana2. i'm going to call it anagram..then i'm changing the current anagram section to "analects"( 'cause it's means misc. literary verbage).so the NEW anagram section is going 2 b a daily pic of my fave pix from the previous day, a written thing of some sort and a drawing/doodle. when i get a scanner i'll scan stuff in , too. and when i figure out how to encode sound and save etc, i'll feature a sound of the day, too :) i'm pretty excited about this, and it'll b a lot of work...but i think it'll be worth it...to be able to look back at all that archived later will b pretty amazing if i can keep it up. so i have to rewrite the "what u get if u sign up" part...and i hope i'll get more subscribers. this month is a lot less 'cause we deleted a TON of people that were never logging in..to decrease the chargebacks. grrr..i hate those! there HAS 2 b a way around it.and i have to find out how long a person can wait and STILL chargeback. i mean, i have a guy that wants his money back from JUNE!the business side of this can truly suck. and i have to learn html, 'cause there is so much i want 2 do 2 the site, i'll wear poor jason out! there's always something needing to b fixed or changed or added or deleted. now it's almost 2am and i'm not tired and the new puppy is all asleep. he is so fat and roly poly. he grows on me more and more each day. i just wish he'd figure out where 2 go 2 the bathroom. yuck. luckily i have a great thing for cleaning it up! rrrrrr .i have 2 get a desk for my computer, all this two fingered typing on the floor is sending my back into a bent shape.still never decorated this place 'cause i realized that if u have a lot of stuff but want everything to look minimal and modern..u have 2 have a lot of money to put into expensive shelves and things to hide all your stuff in. things like glass/mirrors/steel/rotating minimal sculptures of great beauty..are exxxxxpensive. i just need a shelf to hold all my cassettes still! i just need a HUMOUNGOUS place is what i need..so i can hide all my stuff way far back in other rooms, and the rest of the house can b this minimal white sanctuary. 'cause i just can't part with my great stuff. and i can't start reverting back to my old dyi punk kitch of antiquey quirkyness. i want/need/must create my little world around me! rrr, what 2 do? so jason found this programme called "dreamweaver" that is a great webpage maker thing. so i am excited 2 understand it and start building my own little world how i want it 2 b on the net, at least! and then, there's the thing of why go through ALL the trouble to decorate here...when i might move out in august? i mean, when i decorate it's like a frickin installation and then i can never leave because i love it too much. I CAN'T remember if u told me that u saw it..but if u didn't u must go 2 www.snarg.net. it makes me feel STUPID at how STUPID my site looks, although the CONTENT it what counts..but STILL...i wanna b a great book WITH a great cover, ya? so much 2 do..so much...and all i really wanna do is WATCH CABLE! and learn photoshop, html, shockwaveflash, japanese, german , french, papermaking, bookbinding, metal jewelry making, tattooing, tai chi, chakra opening and cleansing, channeling, book writing, pottery making, sewing, typing, filmmaking, operasinging, dancing...i want a piano! i want my own studio! rrrrrrr.....if i was just more driven..but y'know..i'm not! i just LOVE TO LOUNGE AND PUTZ ABOUT! LOVE IT! i miss my bathtub. i want some plants, i want some nature. need the sea. need a spot of land to lay on and feel the earth. need a balcony! need teachers 2 come over to my house and teach me stuff! need money to pay for them! need more "miracles"!everything in it's own time..calm down! man , what IS the moon in tonight? does this make up for not talking 2 u in so long? okokokokokokokoko :) i am hyper as all get out. i need a scanner.time to live is now! no regrets! must...live..in...present..moment! but i guess i am, this is what i want 2 do right now is write this to u, so this is what i "should" be doing now.gotta get back to journal writing. gotta start stretching everyday. gotta stop eating so much sugar. wanna travel! see japan! someone came into my irc tonight from maylasia and said that the monsoon was so horrible right now the water buffalo were floating! can u IMAGINE? damn...i need 2 see that. or perhaps the image of it is good enough or better. nah...rationalization.floating water buffalo? water so high it's getting higher than the house stilts. house stilts! i want 2 see these! i have a silver bowl of my fave rocks in front of my computer, that's my nature. need it want it. it's right outside my door, silly me.i just get so paranoid when i go outside...i'm a weirdo MAGNET. drives me NUTS. maybe someday when i'm old and wrinkly i'll finally get to have peace from strangers when i go outside, and maybe then i'll miss the attention..but i if i did, it would b only fleeting, i think.ah, 2 sit on a park bench for a whole day and not have ANYONE approach me! a DREEEEEEEEEM! i need 2 learn 2 drive just so i can drive to remote locations 2 b alone. sing very loudly in the car. i'm so self-conscious of bugging anyone. don't like 2 make mistakes in front of people either..not when i'm creating. i have to do so much BAD stuff before the good stuff comes out. i like 2 iron out the kinks in private.well, i guess i needed 2 write tonight, and u r the "victim" :)bladdity bla and then some. 3am!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

just posted this to my newsgroup in reply to a guy who thought his life was bad now because he was a real asshole in his pastlives..and he was karmically getting his back...i thought this was this best explanation i'd come up yet of how i'd like to live my life, and how i DO live my life..in moments...i believe that all time is now. time is an illusion. so actually all your "past" lives are happening simultaeously with your life now...as well as all your "future" lives. therefore...everything is instant karma happening simultaeously all at once!and since all your selves are intrinsically connected in the immediate...any change u make now effects all of them/you. therefore i think u can DECIDE to have not a rotten life, and DECIDE IT WITH ALL YOUR WILL that you will not accept anything but the most JOYOUS LIFE FOR YOU FOR THE GOOD OF ALL!( and this will have a domino effect on your other lives...but if they are deciding the opposite what do u do?...hmmm....thinking on that for a few more years.....eek) but the TRICK is..that since in each moment all your selves are dying and being born right NOW...and NOW.............and NOW! so u must decide each moment with all your will to live life in the most joyous way for YOU for the highest "good" of all :) and that's where i get tricked! it's hard...but it's easy! it's so....exasperatingly simple! yet.... aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!! y'know? but i just keep deciding! joy joy joy! no less! not that i've probably suffiently "new-aged" everyone out, i shall depart and get on with my deciding to get well! :) ok, no wait. if we are all one and we are all god, and since god is all things we are all things..by being everything and everybody we could possibly be ( because we want to know who we are and experience it ALL..otherwise..we wouldn't know everything and therefore be god) and every circumstance that could ever happen is happening right now...then i'm the bad guy thinking bad thoughts and the good guy thinking good thoughts and doing good, etc etc etc infinitum.. then how DOES karma work? you'd think that u could help your other lives by being joyous..because you're all connected...but since god wants to experience everything..then trying to make your bad person better might be doing that self a disservice. SO! ok..here..that's where the free will thing comes in. and saying "for the highest good of all" 'cause that other selfs highest good might be to be "bad". god, i don't like that! yes? are u talking 2 me? why yes! LOL! help me i'm on antibiotics! and i'm delirious! i've had three hours of sleep! argh. so...i'm wondering if this is tied in somehow...that by "forgiving/letting go" of the "bad selves" that we are being right now...does free us from their karma? for example. i can remember a whole shitload of my past lives. dunno why. and i don't know why i choose to believe myself. i just decided to, i guess..'cause it feels valid...and no one can prove otherwise, so there. the thing is...i feel like i'm in the middle of this wheel. spokes are going into me like lifelines...a cord of knowledge and feeling between me and a bunch of my past/future lives. and most of the lives i'm feeling are in a lot of pain. most are running away from terrible wars and things. like the holocaust..and futuristic wars..or i'm on the run from a mental hospital( i was weird in other lives , too..and they didn't allow that there). i'm always undercover, hiding...trying to fit in and not be noticed...so they don't find out and kill me. most times i don't even know why they're after me, 'cause i'm young and i just know i have to run. one was i volunteered to go undercover as an android to infiltrate a government. it was a lot like star wars. i think that's why star wars was a very popular movie, because a lot of people's other lives are there right now, and it rang true for them. now i know that sounds REALLY crazy, but i just feel it's true. anyway, i underwent surgery to become as much of an android as possible and i said goodbye to my lover who was in my "terrorist group". they lived in the desert, and the place i was going to was a closed-in city. a big dome-type thing over it. i passed and got work as an android, but somehow ended up in the desert again in a war. my lover and i could see each other as we fought. i was hit and i went down and the sand of the desert started covering me, covering my face...i tried to show him that i was not really dead, but i could not move and i could give no facial expressions. i thought by my sheer will of thought that i could get through to him to say i was not dead. but it didn't get through. and i saw him crying and could do nothing.. and i saw him leave me in the desert to really die. it was the most frustrating thing ever! anyway, u may think that is the most crazy story that i made up..but get this..it gets weirder! i meet this guy in this life years ago. we hit it off immediately, like in the very 1st second our eyes meet and we both are so startled by this "i know u" thing. he becomes my boyfriend for four years and i end up getting a restraining order on him( no, not the one i talked about in my analog a year ago..this was way before that..the OTHER asshole) BUT, when we were in love, we were sitting on this bridge talking, and this dream cam up, and i told it to him and he just stood there shaking! ya, the remberance of the life came to me in a dream..i forgot to mention that) and he said NO WAY! i had a dream that my android lover was shot in the desert and the sand was covering her and i thought she was dead! well, how about that?!a nd i said: i wasn't dead! and he said : i'm so sorry! my other life i remember is i'm a young girl, maybe 7 or something, and we are being called to go on this train. and everyone from the town is being lined up to go on it, and they are saying it is for our own good. all of a sudden out of nowhere i get this FEAR that this is DEATH and we will all die if we do not run! so i'm screaming "run run run!!!!" and everyone thinks i'm crazy. but i escape into these woods, maybe with an even smaller sister to take care of, and i just hide for the rest of my life...'cause i do not even know who to hide from because i don't know why they wanted to kill me in the 1st place. so i just never really talk about anything for the rest of my life for fear of saying something that would jeapordize my life. i guess i'm making up for that now! in another life i was an american indian..i'm still trying to pinpoint the tribe. but that was a great life. i loved it! an american indian before and after we were "discovered" in another lives i just DIED..from murder or accidents. it was just like WHAT I'M DEAD? that sucked. i say that the head is still , for a fraction of a second, still aware as it rolls into the basket from the guillitine! (sp?) and i have a horrible fear of being suffocated, i can't have anything in my mouth for a long period of time. i think that was from being a prostitute and being raped in the face very many times! i was also around when whores were horis( where the word hour comes from..because of a dance the priestesses would do in a circle..to let the time of day be known)..priestesses, and it was a sacred and most respected thing u could do...sex magick that sure got turned around! ya, and the queen of eqypt one...you know..gotta have that one :)but in the queen of egypt one i was miserable 'cause i was too young for the job and never got to play, it made me so depressed i killed myself.then there was the queen of england one...gotta have that, too y'know...that one was totally miserable ,too 'cause u look at all this stuff around u but it's not really YOURS it's the families. no one will look u in the eye. no one can be your friend 'cause they aren't worthy or something. very lonely and depressing. i think once i was a good queen who felt very loyal to her community and did a good job governing. and one queen one i was a real bitch..just beheading everyone...kinda like kicking people in irc. i just didn't have time for their bullshit. i got so fed up being queen that i just beheaded anyone who whined. then there was this life where i was a different species. "a lightbeing" for lack of a better word. i was very young and playing in the "kindergarten" making "light geometry holographic toys" i just felt really serene. it was the greatest society. then we were overtaken by a bunch of other aliens that we did not even know they existed! and they wanted to learn all about my light geometry to use it for "evil" and i didn't let them. i just dissasociated into little pieces of me all over...stuck in other dimensions here and there..hiding the part of me that knew of that knowledge in another place and time. pretty neat trick. but painful. it's like death 'cause you're in pieces and not really together...but you're alive. little organ transplants of your soul being hid away. i wonder if i can find them and put myself back together again? then in another life...and this'll be the last one i type out for now as this is getting ridiculously long and perhaps just plain ridiculous to most of you :) ok, this life was AWFUL! i was living in ireland, i think..when people thought the earth was flat. and i was an "elephant girl". my mother was horrified and knew i would be killed because people would think i was a demon. so she gave me to a monastary. bad idea. 'cause in this monastary there was a priest who was twisted as fuck. he was a sadist and a masochist. he liked to fuck me as a punishment to himself..because it was like fucking a demon AND a girl. two no-nos. but secretly he got off on it. he loved to punish himself. and he'd even punish himself for wanting to fuck me...so he'd fuck me more! then that was MY punishment, he said..for being born a demon. and he said that he loved me and would protect me. if i went outside the monastary i'd be killed! by punishing me and keeping me there it was for my greater good. well, finally i got fed up and by this time i'd had a child with the guy. i took my daughter and away we ran! trying again to hide forever from everyone...because i thought everyone would kill me! i don't know how that life ended...but maybe it was a good life after that..i can't seem to remember any good things. which brings me to my point! hahah :) why are all these yucky things bleeding over into my life here? it's like these things were just so painful and unresolved that they bled over into a life that could "deal with it" or maybe resolve it somehow. can i heal it? do i WANT to? can i just say no? i guess i must want to...'cause here i am trying. but i don't know what to do. it makes my life miserable a bit..because i have these "irrational" fears. ike no one can chase me..even in jest..i'll just start to cry. when i was forced to play freeze tag as a child i'd just pass out. and i have this irrational thing always in the back of my head..that i should never get a tattoo...'cause what if i needed to hide or go undercover for some reason? and i think , i KNOW that this is the cause of my neverending life long anxiety that i'm trying to cure. so i have to figure out how to resolve it because i can't be this nervous anymore. augh! i'm always thinking...if i had to run...what would i take with me? the good things i've learned from those lives are: that right now i have more power than i ever had when i was queen of anything..because i OWN my stuff, i can rearrange it or whatever. i decorated! not the family 700 years before me! i can decide to take a day off! i can have real friends! the freedom is mine :) and don't abuse power, because power is not YOU, it moves THROUGH you. respect that and don't make the mistake that it is just you you you doing everything, because if it is just u , u are an island, and if u r an island, you are unconnected from the source and therefore become very confused and powerless. and start making bad decisions out of fear..like chopping people's heads off.you can't ever take a persons power away...u can only take it away from yourself.and i've learned that i'm strong enough to walk into a world that thinks deformity is a demon..and just walk right on into it! what can i say? here i am or kill me? had the guts to do it! charge! living in fear is no way to live. so just live. just learning balance a lot.balance of power, balance of how much power u can handle. balance of the yin the yang the yada yada yada y'know still have to remember the lives where i was a guy. i must be blocking them out because i feel like i don't want to empathize with a possible rapist life i had...being that i was almost raped in this one, too. just don't want to empathize. but i want to understand why men rape. just don't know how to go into that remembering it without completely loathing myself. how can i forgive that? by forgive i mean let go i want to let go ..but my wanting to understand ties me to it. hate it. yuck. help. so anyway...anyone got any suggestions? these are SOME of the things i think about while my cam is looking so boring :)

luv and living in grace, ana
