A Taste of the Manuscript
Chapter One, part 1 For the purposes of this series of articles, a spirit companion is more than a spirit guide or a spirit friend. While technically each of these could be considered companions, the term “spirit companion” was created with a specific dynamic in mind. Simply put, a spirit companion ...

The Woes of Internet Marketing
"Internet Marketing" should really be a four-letter word. The, let's face it, conquering of the Web by sound-bite sized content providers (Facebook, Twitter, et al) is enough to make a wordy person like me cringe and shudder at the prospect. I lack the profoundly well tuned time management skills to ...

The Experience of Avatar
I will probably cry during the writing of this post. Possibly more than once. I'm just saying. Sunday when I came out of the theater as everyone else visited the restrooms, I started crying (again), hyperventilating a little and fighting to regain control of myself as people passed me entering ...

My Blog is, Firstly, For Me
An article in the NYTimes online today attempts to determine why people blog when they should be doing things like "homework and swim practice, or perhaps even housework and parenting." Their determination is that bloggers assume that just the act of starting a blog will provide an instant audience, followed ...

Meridjet Motives in a New Light
I was reading Wikipedia a bit ago, about schema therapy. There was a link at the bottom to their page on Cognitive Dissonance, in which I found this gem: Most of the research on cognitive dissonance takes the form of "induced compliance without sufficient justification." In these studies, participants are ...

Happy Endings Take Too Long
I've just finished watching Definitely, Maybe. I'm crying more than a little bit, and trying to figure out why, and trying to understand how a movie can be good yet make me never want to see it again. P.S. I Love You had the same effect. Normally I don't watch ...

Updates – A Waste of Time?
I've been working my ass off on the blog, which is probably very naughty of me since I need to be working on moving Rending the Veil. However, I am justifying this indulgence with the rationale that I'm familiarizing myself with the CMS, of which this blog layout is a ...

Weird Feelings
In the past couple of weeks, I've noticed a number of timely developments in my circumstances that I would call synchronicity if I only had a better handle on it all. I mentioned that I started schema therapy about 6 weeks ago; this has generated a lot of back-burner thought ...

Astral Plane and Food Offerings
Okay, I had to stay and show you this one. It brings up several practices that might affect those with spirit companions, and other folks will find interesting as well. From 22 October 2003: Last night, we replayed first meeting again. I was having a hard time perceiving him on any ...

Channel a Letter, Sheta
Raiding the archives for tasty bits, again. I’m in the midst of preparing the Beltane issue of Rending the Veil, so most of my attention is otherwhere this weekend (and will be in the week to come). However, due to the boooooring blogger-focused crap I’ve been posting lately, I felt ...

Meridjet’s Use of the Process
As promised, I’m posting some archival stuff since InsaneJournal is loading (albeit slowly). I’m going to put in a few excerpts in an attempt to create a progression because it’s been a while since my last set of archival posts. From 13 October 2003: …First off, it became increasingly apparent yesterday that ...

Teaser Memory
Perhaps it hasn’t been readily apparent in this blog recently, but I’m very much an optimist. I have always been a live-in-the-moment type of person, and while that can get me into trouble financially due to not thinking ahead, it does a world of good for my peace of mind. ...

Gushy, Whiny, Embarrassing Mess
This is one of many formerly private letters I wrote to Meridjet over the years. Don’t read it if you’re easily discomfited by gushing or whining or anything overly emotional, because this makes even me cringe and hide my head under a pillow. :-P Hence, another non-helpful cut tag. This ...

Archives: Processing and Pain
I noticed yesterday that my posts with cuts (or at least the most recent one) seem to hit the RSS feed without a link, so goody for you folks reading the feed, I guess. But I am still using a cut tag here, because it allows me to pretend there’s ...

Continuance and Some Explanation
My sleep schedule is completely wonky right now, so I got up at 2:30 a.m. (It’s now 5:09 a.m.) I could probably sleep pretty easily again, but I slept nearly 10 hours, so I’m going to piddle around with the site a little bit before giving in and lying down ...

A.P. – Meridjet Manipulation
In an archival post from 11 October, 2003, I refer to Meridjet’s methods of manipulating my emotions for the purpose of helping me see things. I refer to this as “Processing.” I started out referring to the processes of discovery via his manipulation and guidance, and gradually the word became ...

Archival Post – Kinky
This one is a little more kink information than I’ve ever put out here publicly, so you’ll have to click the cut link if you want to read it. :)
