Yes, same lenny. Adventures in Limbo is what you are talking about and I posted the first five chapters of the book it is to become, I believe. I have six completed and it's funny you bring it up because just now, about three weeks ago, I have resumed writing chapter 7 after my muse ran away with her kayak instructor. Never mind. It's an inside joke, or poke, in my own ribs. ls. If anyone is interested I can post any or all of the chapters wherever you post that type of thing around here. Let me know. It's on disk so I just have to push a few buttons now to post it.
Take care, and thank you, judih! smile.

Ohhh... I'm soooo sorry!
I'm proving in this thread over and over how incompetent I truly am! lol... I had no idea you posted on litkicks, Lenny! I thought we met you after Litkicks closed up. My bad. Now all of a sudden I remember that you came to a show we did in Bethesda with the LK gang before that.
Would love to read your stories!

I don't think we see ourselves as we are. We see ourselves as we think we are.
Looking at us people decide who and what we are, discern our capabilities, draw their conclusions from outward personna, ability to communicate, work and play ethic, and all of it based on sensory data, visual, auditory, perhaps a bit of gut instinct, that results in a perception of who we are. Basically what you see and hear is what you get. People, employers and friends and such take us at face value. If we feel like puddles of incompetence inside, if we feel less than we appear to be, if we think we are big losers pulling off a sham of the greatest proportions and yet no one on earth is any the wiser of it, then which are we?
Am I the miserable waste of skin that I think I am or am I that fabulous, together, go-get-em, hotsy totsy whirlwind that others believe I am. (I'm not speaking about me here, just writing...lest anyone think that I have ever been perceived as a hotsy totsy whirlwind
)
What am I on about you may well be asking yourself here?
Well, clearly Doreen and others, including myself, feel we are incompetent, perhaps even underachievers, rather a bit of a let down in the performance and ability field, but if others see us in a different light, in fact see us as rather fabulous then which are we?
I believe myself to be an incompetent boob! What do you believe me to be? And what the hell am I actually!?!? And the wheel goes round and round.

You should celebrate, because apparently you were considered worthy! Revel in it because damn it you deserve it! You have pulled the wool over everyone's eyes to the extent that they believe in you and nothing remains now but to pull the wool over your own eyes and just be what you are perceived to be because apparently that's what you are!I have risen to my level of incompetence.
What should a person do when this happens?

I used to walk with my head in the clouds but I kept getting struck by lightning!

You can't pull the fur over my eyes mouse, I saw that picture of yourself you posted for awhile. And I know a hotsy totsy when I see one.hotsy totsy whirlwind
I used to have the feeling that I got away with something everytime I made it back home from a run out to those mountains out west.
I am such a coward. The only thing that keeps me going is my shame of my fears. I finally got my motorcycle up to 60 today. Oh what feeling
