Did you drink yourself stupid?

Did everyone have a good weekend? I did. Friday was spent with some friends drinking Champaign and uploading TV shows (mostly the Munsters. I have a thing for Herman) and more music to my IPOD.
Saturday, I spent shopping on 5th Ave. with my friends Janet and Paul. Paul is finally talking to me again. I think I know why he stopped. It had to do with a guy I was dating. Just a guess. They are both going on a Cruise for 11 days. Some other friends are joining them. I cannot believe that I am not going. I have way too much work to do.
I walked all over the place just like I said I would to loose body fat, but I think I gained weight instead. Not sure how. Maybe from drinking a few glasses of wine each night.
Left Tribeca and headed for Smith Street in Brooklyn where we found a great little French Bistro. Had some food and drank some more red wine. Came home and watched a crazy movie called "Dirty Filthy Love" It was about a guy with obsessive-compulsive disorder and Tourette syndrome. A British film. I would recommend it.
Got to bed really late, I think the sun was coming up. Nothing unusual.
Sunday was just a relaxing day where I ate, slept, played with my kats and worked.
I watched the Sopranos of course. I knew Tony would pull through. He had to. I could not stand another dream sequence. I needed to see some action and with Tony stuck in a hospital bed in a coma with tubes down his throat, I could not see much happening. So I felt great after the show was over. Much better then I did after last weeks episode.
Time for bed. Good night. Sweet dreams everyone.

To Michigan for my mom's 80th birthday was where I went this weekend. She's race car driver Tony Stewert's biggest fan. She could be Tony's mom, she knows so much about him.
Speaking of Michigan, I'm almost finished with Scar Tissue. Thanks for turning me on to it. Cat did more drugs than I could ever imagine without killing himself. Glad he didn't cuz the Peppers are a really great band. And they definitely require Captain Keidis at the helm.
I am always up late. I have trouble sleeping most of the time. I just stay up and work.
Happy Birthday Mom! So your mother likes Tony. Amazing.:)
Glad you enjoyed Scar Tissue. Great book. Peppers are the best music to workout to. Keeps me going and I am not sure If I would jump off a hotel balcony. Maybe a bunch of years ago.
Lori, you're the real vampire slayer, of course. That show has a secret door to your world.
Where is that door of which you write?
First, Lori and Buffy have obvious things in common. Both are free-spirited, funny sexy blondes who, although they don't seem particularly physically tough, focus a lot on strength and fighting. But fighting as symbolic of love, and challenge, and passion for life. In both cases it's also a sexual/relationship metaphor. As you say, Buffy is struggling with teenage angst, among other things. Lori is struggling with something similar, I think, (though I won't attempt to guess what it is). Tyler, and some of Lori's "boyfriends" are equivalent to the monsters who Buffy slays on an almost daily basis. Stories of life and death (sex) revolve around each.
(Lori, I apologize for talking as if you weren't even here.)
More to the point, both women are Kali (daughters of Durga) as described in Indian tradition, (http://www.exoticindiaart.com/kali.htm) and project their worldly manifestations through similar visual mediums of strength and beauty. Both slay the ego and bring ultimate reality through kindness.
Buffy and Lori differ a lot, too, of course. For one thing, Buffy is pretty serious, kinda the "straight man" in the show, whereas Lori is whimsical and, let's face it, pretty goofy a lot of the time. Buffy is a fictitious character, whereas Lori is obviously a real person, but both are sincere and meaningful. Both are at once human and divine (for lack of a better term).
They're different manifestations of the same principal, and are also always ultimately good for a laugh.
The portal is Buffy's fictitious character, the destination is Lori's reality. The real and unreal coexist and cycle like magnetic field flux, and, actually, both are portals to each other. The door swings both ways.
I hope that clarifies a little. It would be awesome to get the real story from Lori herself, but she's (you're) really busy making karma and lila.
BTW, I think you mean "principle", not "principal". L is the 'principal' blogger here, and, according to you, she and Kali share some sort of feminine goddess 'principle'.
"Her white teeth are symbolic of purity (Sans. Sattva), and her lolling tongue which is red dramatically depicts the fact that she consumes all things and denotes the act of tasting or enjoying what society regards as forbidden, i.e. her indiscriminate enjoyment of all the world's 'flavors'."
