Sometimes I Climb the Walls and Lie on the Ceiling
[Please note: This is a repost of a post published in November 2013. Wow, what a cool dream! And since before I reread this post, I'd reread several of the other posts I'd written in November 2013, this dream is particularly meaningful, showing how my blogging was affecting my psyche, helping me to shift out...

[Please note: This is a repost of a post published in October 2013. Often after having written a post, no matter how intensely I was feeling during the writing of it, or how important I felt it was to write it and then press 'publish', share my thoughts (and then worry about having done that)......

[Please note: This is a repost of a post published in September 2013. It's been fun re-reading old posts thus far. It's also been insightful to observe a past-me through what I wrote a few years ago, through what I felt back then, what was bothering me, what was getting my attention and causing me... Continue Reading →
[Please note: This is a repost of a post published in August 2013. I'm not exactly sure what inspired 2013-me to write this post. It may have been one of those posts in which I was arguing with myself (there are many of those) or arguing with some imaginary person (this happened quite a bit... Continue Reading →
[Please note: This is a repost of a post published in July 2013. Recently I've become addicted to watching k-drama (South Korean TV series). Thus far I've seen Strong Girl Bong-Soon, and Oh My Ghost(ess), and now I'm two-thirds of the way through Black. The latter is very different from the former, more convoluted, with...

[Please note: This is a repost of a post published in June 2013. In the archives of my blog there are two subjects which I regularly write about - narcissists and astrology. Occasionally I've tried to blend the two together with varying degrees of failure. One of the things I like about astrology is that... Continue Reading →
[Please note: This is a repost of a post published on this blog in May 2013. I have added an image of the 'purpose of emotions' chart which I mentioned in the post and linked to the article which contains the chart (it's a different article from the one in which I originally found the...

[Please note: This is a repost of a post I published on this blog in April 2013. If you're wondering why I'm doing reposts... the story begins the other day when I noticed that a couple of the blogs which I like to follow were reposting old posts. At first I was annoyed at them... Continue Reading →
[Please note that this is a repost of a post published in March of 2013. The only change made to it is the addition of an image from a TV series I'm watching at the moment - Oh My Ghost(ess) - which is excellent, and which has a character in it whose intense shyness reminded... Continue Reading →
Last night I watched an old film - Repeat Performance (1947) - which triggered an old wound, releasing some new insights into myself and my story for me personally. . . The synopsis of the film on IMDb is as follows: "On New Year's Eve 1946, Sheila Page kills her husband Barney. She wishes that... Continue Reading →
I was recently asked a question in a comment: "You mentioned in one of the steps about making sure they aren’t acting narcissistic versus being a narcissist. I searched on google, “what’s the difference between acting narcissistic versus being a narcissist or NPD.” No site made a separation between essentially stating you can’t act narcissistic...

The other day I said - Ask Me Anything... Sometimes I say things and later regret saying them. There's one particular thing I say fairly regularly which I invariably end up regretting (this can be a good thing - for more on that just ask me about it). It took me awhile to notice that... Continue Reading →
The other day in a post I said - Ask Me Anything - and fantasticomundodecarol - very thoughtfully asked me: How are you? It's a fairly common question which people ask each other. A simple question which should be easy to answer, and yet this is the kind of question which tends to surprise me... Continue Reading →
The other day in a post I said - Ask me anything - and edifyingthespiritblog was the first to ask me something. Have I seen any new films? Yes, I have. Last night I watched a 'peplum' film - Ursus, Terror of the Kirghiz (also known as Hercules, Prisoner of Evil). A 'peplum' film is... Continue Reading →
I'm on a bit of a blogging hiatus at the moment. This wasn't planned, it just happened. And I've learned the hard way (which is how I tend to learn things... although whether I've actually 'learned' anything is a moot point) that it is better to go with things as they happen (and pretend you... Continue Reading →
There's a blog which I enjoy visiting - Love Your Design by Kim Gould - which does astrology in a slightly different manner than usual. When I first came across that blog I thought that the system they were using was created by the blogger, Kim Gould. It was intriguing, appealed to my quirky mind... Continue Reading →
This bit is from anupturnedsoul intro-ing the reblog: This is a great post about one person's journey through life thus far... and it's one incredibly inspiring story! I've always been intrigued about the personal story behind the person because there's so much more to people that meets the eye, and often in our meetings we... Continue Reading →
Every now and then I surprise myself. Sometimes it's a nice surprise, and I realise I'm not quite who I thought I was. Some incident, usually a small one, reveals to me that I'm less of a mess than I see myself as being. Or I realise that being such a mess is an advantage... Continue Reading →
This bit is from anupturnedsoul: I haven't yet figured out how to reblog properly using the new (which is now old) WP format. So this is a part of my learning curve (which I'm being slow about learning). The post I'm reblogging made me stop and read it (but I didn't comment because I'm me,... Continue Reading →
There are two kinds of people: 1 - Narcie 2 - everyone else Narcie is very relieved that she's a Narcie and not an everyone else because she's a bit special and therefore could never be an everyone else. People like Narcie often have BIG problems (and those BIG problems are always caused by everyone... Continue Reading →
With a narcissist things can escalate quicker than you can say the word - escalate. One minute they're blissfully happy, then you blink your eyes (you didn't mean to, you knew you shouldn't have done it, but it happened almost as though such a thing as blinking can't be controlled) and all shitstorminahellteacup has broken...

Have you ever had a question about yourself which you decided to pop into the Google search box and see if the internet has the answer for you? And did the internet solve your personal puzzle or make the puzzle even more puzzlier? Usually when I pop a question about myself into Google... 1 -... Continue Reading →
In spite of the fact that my software keeps crashing and my computer keeps whirring like it's on its last breath, heating up until I could possibly fry an egg on it (if I wanted to do something like that). In spite of my not having enough RAM to deal with Narcie The Narcissist and... Continue Reading →
Influences today are oblique, coming at us sideways, so to speak, and echoing instinctive knowledge, what we know but haven’t recognized (info carried in the ‘blind spot’), or the past and what it has taught us (Neptune semi-sq Pallas, Mercury qnx Sedna and paralled by the Sun). How successfully do we handle this? It may […]... Continue Reading →
Today is my birthday, and I'm saturning 49. I don't have too many thoughts about being 49 specifically, and being in my 50th year on planet Earth. (I have enjoyed being in my 40's, it's the best decade yet! But I have no idea if I'm doing my 40's as the 40's are supposed to... Continue Reading →
Yes, it's another Narcie post, and Narcie is really sorry she's monopolising my blog but Narcie really needs this... You see she's having a bad start to the New Year. Everything was supposed to magically and miraculously change for her on New Year's Day, and when it didn't she was terribly upset. But she got... Continue Reading →
I was going to do a not-a-Narcie post today, but... as you can see I did a Narcie post. Like a typical Narcissist, Narcie is taking over my blog... while protesting that she is not doing any such thing. I must be mistaken. She doesn't mean to be invasive, that's just her way... you wouldn't... Continue Reading →
January 1st is always a bit of a strange day. The first week of a new year can feel surreal. If you've ever lived with a narcissist, every day of every year can feel strange and surreal. Narcissists are big egos with big dreams of a big life... and the typical narcissist expects those big... Continue Reading →
Have a Happy New Year everyone! These days I quite like this time of year. I don't do very much, just chill at home doing sweet FA. When I was younger, and forced to spend X-mas and New Year with my parents, or later on just with my mother because the royal We was not... Continue Reading →
I don't always do everything I say that I'm going to do, however sometimes I do... and this is one of those sometimes I do times. In a recent post (this one: Are We Nearly There Yet? ) I mentioned that I had an idea for a drawing series and that I would reveal more... Continue Reading →
