my answer : Doubled & Going For Triple ( aka Stage III )
It may sound weird or odd to some - or just cause a few to question wth I mean... which I'm ok with, of course *smirks*
I've posted about it before a few times - and I'm not one to hold things back, it's just not my way
Honesty Is The Key ... though I do suppose it takes the "mystery" out of me at times - as if there's ANYthing mysterious about me :)
so - on to the 'behind the answer' portion of this posting *grins*
as I've mentioned & posted before, I was born with heart issues - aeortic stenosis from a biscuspid aeortic valve... as the doctors put it when it was 'discovered,' the aeortic valve essentially doesn't function so I have a 3-valve heart...
this is the reason I wasn't able to run even a block before nearly passing out, do anything unusually strenuous, and is why I have constant chest pain & always will
...even though it was 'discovered' when I was 15 ( due to my doctor dying & the new doctor doing deeper digging into my health ), I've had it my entire life
at this point they put me on medication that made me feel as if I was a zombie... so I rarely took it...
and told me I'd be lucky to live to 18 - maybe a year/year-and-a-half later I was told I wouldn't live to be 21
HENCE, I have Doubled My Lifespan & Am Going For Triple - or can consider it the Stage III of my Lifespan :)
post-graduation, I haven't been to a doctor since - excepting ER & UC visits ( such as when my head was cracked open in a car accident, when I was attacked & robbed, and other unusual instances in my life )
one of the last things I was told is that I'd likely need surgery in the near-future, though I've long surpassed whatever range that "near-future" was
( so that means, no, I don't know what my health condition is - no idea *shrugs* )
I refused some of the medications they suggested - though I was forced to take the zombie-shiite :( *sighs*
because of how the meds made me feel - like a walking, slowed-down, barely-living zombie - I barely took them...
and post-graduation they were tossed out the window of a moving car somewhere north of GF :) ( probably not what I was supposed to do, but whatever, I couldn't stand taking the shit anymore )
So, yeh - there's the story behind the subject/title... feel free & ask anything else you like, I'll do my best to answer
BUT... that's all I've got for this posting, my Lovelies & Gentlefolk !
Keep Living & Enjoying Life, we'll catch you next posting...
twittage::
2/20 : argument outside:
plow driver : "you can't park here"
idiot : "I can park where I fucking want!"
pd : "go ahead, but I also work for the tow company and your car'll be gone in 10"
idiot : "I live here!"
pd : "then use the lot like a resident, now move or I make the call"
2/21 : sometimes it's for the smiles alone on the rare occasions where I eat out or order in and they see what I've tipped them :) - sometimes followed by a "are you sure?" *laughs* - you treat me well, I treat you well... that's how eating out/ordering in should be - always tip well !
2/24 : they interviewed a 'financial advisor' on the news this AM, who said "everyone needs to be saving at least 300$ a month, no matter their age" - WHO in the 7 hells has 300$ left over after bills are paid ?! - let alone more ??!!?? seriously, wtf are they taking home a month ??
2/26 : 18yrs ago was packing, letting people know I was leaving f/m - more than a few awkward goodbyes & a big outing to see Hannibal ( wow, time has flown ! )
2/26 II : if you're offended by a pronoun someone used, then - by gods! - don't be offended when someone asks what pronoun you prefer... if you want to be called by a certain one, say so - that's akin to expecting someone to know you're a "Dr," "Sir," "Lord," "Godling," etc by look alone!
2/28 : "do you ever think sometimes that people are talking about you behind your back?"
dude, I'm the one they hold entire meetings about me behind my back !
3/4 : to self: "heyy, why did I put these jeans on the 'retired' stack, they fit PERFECTLY and... oh, yeh, the big-ass hole in the crotch... yehhh, back onto the 'retired' stack you go"
moments later: "heyy, why did I put these jeans... er, wait, oh yeah. crotchhole. demn it." >:(

unusualist - I have yet to find a religion and/or spirituality that fits my own personal beliefs... other than, of course, the fact I am a (fallen) god.
( y'just now figured out that I'm basically a non-practicing hedonist? "if it feels good, do it, if it feels bad, you're doing it wrong" )
( "I believe in the proven power of willpower and the truth we are the gods we created. No one being created this universe and its wonders." )
( "the words of wisdom I follow will be the words I've written myself based on the life and experiences that I have Lived, Enjoyed, & Survived" )
( "may the platelets of justice travel the bloodstream of villainy, clog its arteries with honourable vengeance, and induce a coronary of truth" )
( "we are all inmates in the same asylum, some of us are just better at bribing the guards" )
( "In a previous life I was the engine block to a '56 chevy, I lost my heart to a Volkswagen Bus... er, wait - or was that a '57?" )
( "Godfuck Me, Jesus!" )
"Lately, we've been playing music by this chap named Bieber, gosh, you should hear the screams"
"Just fear me, love me, do as I say, and I will be your slave..."
"Oh, man. I'm sensing something very canadian about this place..."
"It's all true, god's an astronaut, Oz is over the rainbow, and Midian is where the monsters live..."
Jax : "yay for you, do you want a cookie or a bozo button?"
