Sometimes I'm so engaged in all the spaces and places my thoughts occupy AT ONE TIME (kinda like Sybil, but without the horn rims) that the feeling of overwhelm has an HOV Lane toward my discombobulated cerebral cortex. My usual response is to disengage, to unplug myself from the most system-shocking outlets. That's what I did this last week so I could relax, reflect, and repump the well.
I am an expert in the art of unplugging. Yesterday, I stretched out lazily on the couch in my PJs and watched movies—ALL DAY—while everybody else went to the circus. I hung out with a calico cat stretched across me and a few dozen friends under the cinematic umbrellas of Cinderella Man, Benjamin Button, and Harry Potter (times 2). Oh yeah, we're like THIS!
All that to say, sorry for my absence. But a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. No stilettos involved, sad to say. But Saturday I did manage to hit an old haunt with a new friend, nurse a Corona with lime, cringe at some bad karaoke, and knock in some tricky shots during a rusty few hours of Eight-ball. It was kind of nice to plug back into that scene for a change.
While I was away from you, Disa came by and sifted through my posts. I just wanted to be sure I acknowledged her for the sweet sentiments she left me. You might appreciate this one:

Of course, that's just paraphrasing.
In her comments, Disa leaves me linky invitations to check out her porn stash. And gosh, I'm totally flattered cuz I'm one heckuva porn hound, as everyone knows. But as I mentioned earlier, I'm also easily unplugged these days. Sybil, remember? Oh, and Disa, don't let me forget to say thanks for your kindness on my most personal post about my sister who died last year -- oh, and my Father's Day tribute to the most important man in my life. Your cryptic sentiments showed just the right sympathy in tone and nuance, delivered in the special way that only you can. I love how you're there for me. But, Disa, I hope you understand when I say, no matter how many times you visit me, I will be just too unpumped to partake in the poontangery. But I sure appreciate you thinking of me.
Hope everybody is well out there. I'll be around to see you!

that's supposed to be 'nor' will I ever! I reserve the right to carry my tunes in a bucket and not deafen anyone with my lack of singing ability!
I really hope Disa takes the time to read my blog and visit me.
That Disa's everywhere! (Me too with the porn links.)
Good work unplugging- you gotta do it every now and then.
That heifer comes and visits me, too. I guess she has no gender issues, eh?
Teach me how to unplug! Please!

Disa found me too, for about ten posts. I really need to figure out how to take them off.
Glad you relaxed. Always a good thing.
And I thought I was special with the invitation to asian porn in my comments. I had no idea she was inviting every corona nursing, pool shark hussy on the world wide web! :)
almost afraid to comment, as she may be soliciting your commenters, if that is the case I AM NOT INTERESTED, DO NOT COMMENT...that being said, Sybil, my it has been many years, read and studied her, wrote a paper (one of my longest)...never did see the movie, thanks for the motivation in doing so; and your lazy dayzzz sound just grand, I always find it difficult to do nothing and admire those who can and appreciate its value
Glad you got some down time, sounds fun :-) Is there any way to make my comment invisible so your porn-loving friend doesn't link back to me? lol
G'day ... Disa did visit me too ...I just decided to think the symbols were pretty ..haha ....I probably wouldn't think so if I understood them!
Disengaging is wonderful.
I'm driving to Sydney tomorrow and won't be back until Sunday.
Will do me the world of good.
No dates on the horizon?
Good for you! I'd absolutely LOVE to Unplug for a while...sounds like a little slice of Heaven!
Disa came to blognut manor yesterday, too. She's quite 'get-around girl'!
Glad you had some time to relax and reflect; it's good for you!
And now?
I'm glad you're back!
Nothing wrong with unplugging for a while. Love the Marianne Williamson quote!
OK, I confess: I'm Disa and I'm just messin' with your head....
When I posted my Chinese Porn spam on my blog about a month ago, I then got slammed EVERY DAY with 15 of them. I'm reluctant to even comment about it. The only thing you can do is put in comment verification (captcha) or moderate comments.
To delete just make sure you're signed into Blogger. Then a little trashcan will appear at the bottom of all your posts. Just put the comment in there.
Some days are just necessary like that.
How do those foreign porno people keep finding us?LOL
Disa is spewing forth Asian porn? I thought she was offering to do my toes. Dammit.....I have the worst luck!
uhm.....no "do" my toes....but you know what I mean. eww...that's just not some place my mind wants to go today.
Your absence makes blogging seem like eating birthday cake with no ice cream! :)
Just seeing the word "pooyangery" in my sidebar made me laugh.
Yeah, a girls gotta sit back once in a while and let the big easy take over. I'm for it: )
I liked this post a lot, it made me feel at home here.
Your tribute to this "disa" is deeply touching. I found myself hoping she drowned. Is that not also very touching?
Ciao Baby
You are just so cool!! I like how you dissed Disa, the #@$%. She's visited me as well.
Love those 'down days'...great way to recharge!
~AM
I hope she doesn't visit me.
This was so sweet of you. I felt the same way when one of Disa's friends left sweet and supportive comments about my post regarding Shaken Baby Syndrome. She really made me feel better.
Oh shoot. I had no idea it was PORN. I just deleted it.
Shoot.
(pun intended)
Gosh, you're neat. You get blog porn?! *sigh* Maybe someday, Amy. Maybe someday.
(Glad you're back!!)
Yeah, I had the same on my blog, but when I contacted them to tell them what sort of porn I liked they said they don't do broken glass fetishes, and now won't talk to me.
Honestly, you try and make new friends . . .
Unplugging is the greatest and I seem to have mastered it also. And without guilt. Maybe we need to unplug Disa for awhile!
Well, I am shocked. I really thought you'd take the time to visit her back - what with her leaving you a comment and all:)
Chinese porn?! Interesting!
Oh crap, she got me too.....several times.
Maegan, from love Maegan, got hit with about 5 of those in a row on the same post! It's hysterical.
I got hit with a small one, not worthy of saving, so I deleted it.
Isn't it nice to know that someone else is willing to take over the porn factor of our blogs for us if we go MIA?
your paraphrasing? almost made me pee.
I'm just coming back from a long blog vacation myself...had to drop into one of my faves. Glad to see you up and around, even if it is lying prostrate on the couch!!
