The Precise Behavior of Exceptions

Did life turn out the way you thought it would be when you were a kid? What you expected is probably what you got (unless you were unlucky); and if you didn’t expect much, that is also probably what you got. But no matter how well you planned (or didn’t plan), be honest– your life didn’t turn out exactly like you thought it would happen. For better or worse, one thing is certain: There were surprises and exceptions along the way.

Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting a bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian.
Quotation from Dennis Wholey

We are always paid for our suspicion by finding what we suspect.
Quotation from Henry David Thoreau

Beauty Rest

Beauty Rest

We all need Beauty Rest. Collagen’s catalytic work regenerates skin cells faster at night, peaking around 2 am, fighting aging and wrinkles while also repairing joints and tissue. Sleep also reduces stress, improves memory and is considered an acceptable alibi.

Blessing on him who invented sleep —the mantle that covers all human thoughts, the food that appeases hunger, the drink that quenches thirst, the fire that warms cold, the cold that moderates heat, and, lastly, the general coin that purchases all things, the balance and weight that equals the shepherd with the king, and the simple with the wise.
Quotation from Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote

Hell Week, Part 1: Wrinkles

Hell Week, Part 1: Wrinkles

Another Wrinkle is when you realize you’ve lost your “Goth” credential
by visiting both Costco and Target the same day. You’ve gone past Go,
turned Middle Class, fallen through middle earth and slid far past Purgatory.
Your sad descent into “Ordinary” (otherwise known as Hell) is complete.

Today is Encore Seraphine’s **One Year Anniversary**

The Dante’s Inferno Test has banished Seraphine to the
Sixth Level of Hell for Heresy – to the wretched City of Dis!
Here is how Sera matched up against all the levels of Sin:

Level Score
Purgatory (Repenting Believers) Very Low
Level 1 – Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers) Low
Level 2 (Lustful) Very High
Level 3 (Gluttonous) High
Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious) Moderate
Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy) Low
Level 6 – The City of Dis (Heretics) Extreme
Level 7 (Violent) Very High
Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers) High
Level 9 – Cocytus (Treacherous) High

Take the Dante’s Inferno Hell Test <== It's what you deserve...

“O God,
let there be some surprise in heaven for him,
for no one but you could devise
anything suitable
for him,
so beautiful.”
Poem by Hilda Doolittle, The Master
