the stone age chiseled out: Glad you had such a nice and anxiety free trip… It’s been that way for about a year now. We’re out to restaraunts and social functions and shopping (lots of shopping and….

Didn’t know that you were out and about so much, Elliott! Glad to hear that you are doing so well! And….. no more Klonopin or Xanax?? Wow! The art museum sounds very nice. I love visiting them… MikeH

Response:

are you saying that David won’t let you post anymore???

melody, i just spoke with David. He has created an account to post here and was looking forward to introducing himself. you’ve pre-empted His introduction. He won’t be posting here now with the same clean slate as He had wished, He’s now guilty by association. thank you for making this decision for him…. MOM ! ( <—-those are MY words, he would never be so crass, as He has couth. i have selective couth. i DO hope He will post, in lieu of your lack of consideration.) David wanted the opportunity to make His own choices, as well as the inherent respect involved in such. Tell david we really miss him

Dave said "take better aim next time, below the belt is tanya’s territory." and have been wondering who his best friends were you had dinner with…

do you wanna make sure they cleaned their plates before dessert, also, mommy? you, melody, KNOW Dave is quite reserved and requires a comfort zone and most of all, a very private man. yes, you introduced us, and for that brief moment of consideration of Dave’s happiness, Dave thanks you, i thank you. "brief" is the operative word. it was closely followed by airing of very personal knowledge you had of Dave (your BEST friend) to me, (a total stranger), as well as your issuance of a "warning" regarding meeting me (again, a total stranger) to Dave (who is perfectly capable of making His own decisions.) your behavior is chock full’ah confirmation. i’m relating my own, as well as Dave’s feelings at his request. (are you surmising i wouldn’t LET Dave speak for himself. habits ARE hard to break, aren’t they, melody.) i can assure you that i submit to his every whim, if even by proxy. The same david who doesnt want me calling him at home anymore.

or at work, yes… one in tha same. the same david I named my son after,

that’d be Him ! the same david you claim I mother…

David can even burp himself now ! <gasp Did you ever think …. (well, that’s rhetorical in itself… nebbermind <smile) ~tanya

It may be commendable on some level, Young Master Elliott, but I predict that you won’t make a convert to rational living out of Stevie. P. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text –

Hey, that’s what I’m taking right now "Apo-Pen VK" (generic penicillin)… I I’m not in good shape right now, sinusitis & pharyngitis & otitis in left ear… I also take Ciprodex, Benzydamine and of course Tylenol… Add the Imipramine & Klonopin and I’m a walking drugstore… But, even if I am as sick as a dog, I don’t feel any increase anxiety… This, in itself, is a miracle!!!

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – We just got back a trip to the Indianapolis Museum of Art. They’ve just reworked the whole place, and I hadn’t been in there in over 20 years. No anxiety about having panic at all. I walked freely through the building. Renoir’s great grandson was giving a talk, which was part of the grand re-opening (along with new art exhibits – mainly modern art, which is somewhat ironic, I suppose). The museum is on the property (actual house/home) of Eli Lily, who donated the entire land (house and all) for the purpose of the museum back in the 60s. The Lily family has been a major benefactor to the ‘arts’ in this city for a very long time. I took no drugs other than that penicillin to kill of some nasty shit I picked up this afternoon from a ‘Nicole’.
