I think a fatwa has been issued against me, to insure a slow miserable demise. It is working.
The shrieking and screeching, fingernails on the blackboard sound is very intense. I am quite amazed at how much sleep I am able to get. I wake up and it feels like the world might come to an end soon. It is horrendous at times. Am starting to get more headaches, now. That does not bode well for the future.
Nothing like like feeling super crappy and all alone, everyone thinks that I am better because I went so many places this year. I am getting the payoff for doing stuff but I would never say it was not worth it. I loved being with people again, the few times I was.
I have no idea why I whine so much except that I am afraid, not afraid of dying - that will be the easy part. Getting to the dying is going to be the bitch.
With all these happy thoughts I shall leave and go find my hijab, my my, can't wait. All these stylish choices.

Dear Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteWhat a strange thing that you found this obscure posting, deep within a blog about which I have told no one. Do you search for ways to be offended?
I am sure you are a very nice person, so am I.
I think religion is wasted energy. All the garments Muslim women wear are an insult to women, especially the clothes that cover your entire body. You are subservient to the men who established the rules for what you wear; neither Allah nor women did that to you. Quit hiding behind some fifth century outfit. You should be insulted by that rather than at the rantings of a man blowing off steam because of how awful he feels.
I am not your enemy.
I think the garments some Christian women and men, and those that some Jewish men wear, to be pretty silly.
Just so you know, I am not a Christian, perhaps you should not assume so much, yourself. I suggest you read some of what Ayaan Hirsi Ali has to say. She is very insightful and intelligent.
And what a nice touch: give me hell and then say, "Oh, by the way, sorry for your pain," as if you really care.
Feel free to comment again.
I am not anonymous. My name is Peter, I am a real person.
I am an American citizen, too.
