It was late. I had decided to retire to my inner sanctum to examine Kerri's art werk. One particular piece caught my eye. It was several hours before I was able to snatch it back because I kept seeing faces in the work. Unmistakable faces. I burst into Patti's room for independent verification. "Can you see this hippo?" She replied calmly, "You're hallucinating again, Dave." But it's there....it's there....I cried. "Dave, remember why we had to paint over the knotty pine ceiling? You kept seeing Annette Funicello in various states of undress...is it coming back to you?" "That was different. This hippo is really there, I tell you!" Alas, when I asked Kerri she said she couldn't remember what she sent me. Clearly Patti had gotten to her. So, now I must take my case to the world at large. To help you "see" I have sketched in some contextual backgrounds. Am I mad? (Please take your time answering.)  (I should point out there's money riding on the outcome.) (Really big money). (As in tens of dollars). Thank you, Kerri.

HEy! Where is the Spumoni????

Comment by David Stafford on July 12, 2012 at 5:13am

hmmmm, there is much to chew on here, grasshoppers and I'm too altered (naturally) to absorb it all. Tomorrow we resume maladaptation but tonight we knit up the raveled sleeve of care and assign demons to their closets for 8 hours plus.

It isn't clear that David has ever sent me any medication, KDJ, but in the winter I might be willing to try a bit of his as an experiment. There are no enablers here in winter. Oh, you meant med talk and so on. Never mind.

Today in "Happy Class" I learned that I shouldn't shout out "ha ha aha haaaaa haaaa heeeee heeee" in the middle of class while others are talking.

Comment by Kerri Pullo on July 12, 2012 at 3:54am

You got it right! A circle of enablers who promote the belief that one's natural cognitive altered experiences are to be viewed as maladaptive, psychopathic, and an overall danger to one's self and society. It's so fun to play with enablers.

Comment by David Stafford on July 12, 2012 at 3:44am

I like the sound of that "Happy Class." Is that a circle of enablers you belong to? If so, I want one too.

Comment by Kerri Pullo on July 12, 2012 at 3:39am

KDJ I'm not sure my "Happy Class" group would approve. But I'm all in :)

Comment by Kerri Pullo on July 12, 2012 at 3:30am

ahhhhh....yes, now I remember. I sent this to you for the distinct purpose of insanitating you. You may ask, what is insanitating? Well, simply put, it is the act of attempting to diminish one's soundness of mind. I may or may not have succeeded in accomplishing this. However, if I did so, it's lovely to be in good company.

Oh dear, that could be bad. Noel Harrison is kind of passe, isn't he? But hey, who cares? 

Beavers, koalas, humans--Kerri's work will need further study tomorrow morning, thanks for the tips. I'm honored that you'll put my ideas into practice, Dave, and please don't worry about the objections of people too frightened to have their work milled through your mine/mind. They would be cowards, don't tell anyone I said so, and probably happier for the experience in the big picture (really big)! 

Sleep tight.
