It's funny, because Mavis is alot like me... when we get in that certain mood. Which doesn't happen too often... for me once a month or so... for Mavis, its more like every week or so...
But when she gets in one of her hissy moods! Watch Out!
lmao
She's a hell of a cat, eh? Even Captn. Kirk can't calm her down. Lmao. π

Isn't it funny? How when you feel as though you're running from something, the faster you run, the more it seems like someone is chasing you?
It's odd,... but that is how I had been feeling of late. . . .
It seems this past week has been a bit of darkness... a bit of evil... and a bit of misery catching up with me. π
I fear. . . for ...
They've sent me letters... they're no longer going to give me food stamps! π§ Even though, I mentioned to them, that I had been laid off!! This has never happened to me before!!! Has it? O_o
So now I've got to rush down to their office, on Monday or Tuesday... because Monday I have a lot of phone calls to make... just to argue with them in person. {-_-'}
To top that, housing sent a nice little letter today. π’ They're going to kick me off of housing, just because I can't get the freakin transaction history from my card for November, December, and January... >_<
I swear, if I lose my home over all of this..., . . . .. .. I think I'll just kill myself........................
I feel like my world around me is beginning to crumble slowly, like a wet cake left out in the rain....
And despite the fact, that I do recall this happening with my food stamps in the past..., I cannot help but worry my brains out about not having any food.
My bills are returning as well to their high state.
And with no food,...
. . .
This is the reason... I haven't been sleeping at night.
And probably also the reason, my stomach keeps hurting from all of the stress and worry.
This week, I feature, and have been fascinated by the engaging tale of "King Charles III" on Masterpiece!
This has so far been a very gripping play. On the true story of King Charle's Reign. Nothing like a royal family feud to keep you entertained...
Though, in some ways I can relate to the aging prince/king... He loved his mother dearly. And when she died everything around him, seemed to fall apart!
It's understandable, why he desired to stand his ground on that issue. For centuries, the royal family has always had a say in the ruling of the country. In the laws of the land! And now, they were being pushed aside for the first time(well ok, it wasn't the first time this happened. But it clearly seemed the last.)... in favor of democracy.
It wasn't just the principle of the matter... it was the honor of the throne, he defended. The right that set their nation aside from all of the others. By having a monarch, a royal family... which held an important, though small place, in the politics of their nation. Setting them apart from all of the other nations. And giving them a culture as rich and historical as the cultures of the east...
Though, now that they no longer held a measure of power over the land,. . . people often wonder. What is the reason for having a royal family in the first place?
And though, some may speculate on that. Saying that it simply gives them a measure of prestige, honor, or something to idolize, and a famed sort of dignity, that can only come from a... Royal source!
Charle's knew! He knew that by diminishing that right... the right for the King or Queen to aid in the politics of the land,... that it would leave the Royal Family with no power. And ultimately,... no substance.
It's rather sad, I think.
That they've been reduced to just being like celebrities among the common British Citizens. They have no say in it anymore. So. . . they've become just a rich celebrity family, that live in the castles their ancestors built.
In my opinion, They can call them Royal. They can call them King. But,... when Charles signed that document... and advocated the throne,. . . when he gave up the right to aid in the decisions of his country,... He also gave up. . . being King.
