You're not alone, Debbie Brown

Gnar
Ffffffffffttt. Ffffffftttttt. That is the sound a fanged tapeworm makes. This is the disguise of the tapeworm who comes to bite and deplete your gut. Fffffffftttt. Ffffffffftttttt. It is yellow inside. Going crazy, harming things. Tomorrow I come home. Tonight we had a party at my parents'. I guess it was ok. Lots of food. Only 2 Republicans. Could have been way worse. The food was good. Nothing canned. It is lucky. But. Still. I ache to come home. See you soon.
-Mountain Man

I loved this so much I had to cold steal it right off of Artistic Thoughts.
Now I have to go apologise to Mountain Man for the thievery...but the universality of this metaphor cannot be denied, it is my truth, your truth, reflected back to us so beautifully. Now we are real.




Elsewhere in today's news: Team Shredder is winding down it's Parasite Purge. It's really more of a Parasite Shred, if you will, though that is neither here nor there.

"I feel cold and alone."

The important thing is that we only have a few more days to go of this business before we move on to other pursuits, such as the Team Kidney Cleanse, followed by the biggie, the Team Liver Cleanse. Whew, that one's really gonna hit home, I think. But before all that can happen, I feel we'll each need to maximize our digestive/elimination efficiency by first doing the master colon cleanser. The Capt'n here has been trying to get her mind around this one for some time now. It's a bit effortful, and who wants to deal with anything hard? But I know I need it, and I know the Team needs it. We got lots of special needs and problems up in here.

Hey! I just finished reading a whole bunch of your blog. You made me laugh out loud many times. Thanks for being you and for being in the same hell as me, maybe? At least a similar one. I don't want to make grandiose claims. Thanks for liking my tapeworm post. I am in the darkest of days and it really perked me up. Not only was I with 2 families all week but my family has actually followed me back to NY and have hijacked my NY's eve. I am tempted to go to Goth Club to meet strange cabbie (see latest post). Anyway. Nice to make your ether acquaintance.

Likewise, MM. Imagine my delight when I saw your tapeworm and plus post. Such serendipity! Plus it gave me the sense of belonging to a larger worm community, and that cannot be beat. I have really enjoyed your blog for some time now, I must say. Because it is excellent. Please keep on keepin on. btw I'm sorry about your dark days...I've had a bunch of low-grade greyish ones this month, too. I say, early drinks with the fam, then run off to the goth club & cabbie. Why not have it all? For Team Shredder & friends I think it will be tatoos and then burning stuff on the beach.

best to you-
TC
