Maeve: It’s 2 pm on the Saturday after Thanksgiving and we are just back from our post-lovemaking sail. Hell, we may have made love on the boat too. That is for us to know. Whatever happens on The Catalina stays on The Catalina. And you are such a snoop for researching and blasting out our brand of boat. So, it’s 2 pm and you are making yourself a drink. It’s a beautiful day. You should be exercising, like me. Don’t knock yourself out and CrossFit but get off your couch, at least. I would hate for you to break a sweat and see any results or anything. Be forewarned!
Val: You are implying here that sex is the glue holding their marriage together? You may have honed in one iota of truth there. It is so much more than that though. They adore each other. They respect each other. They have been in a fun and loving relationship for years with many shared experiences, shared friends, and good times. They took that leap of faith many years ago to spend the rest of their lives together. What part of commitment to marital vows and respect for marriage are you not getting? Trey is not getting out of his marriage and he is going nowhere with you! Be forewarned.
So, Thanksgiving is tomorrow. What are your plans for Thanksgiving? The usual thing for me to do is gather around the table with my family and try our best to keep it light and get along. Best of luck to you in all that! Thinking of you! As Pink Floyd said, “Wish you were here”
Maeve: In a far corner of your mind, you are wondering what our plans are for Thanksgiving! We might make love, go surfing, make love again, go for a sail, all before an epic feast/party amongst our closest family and friends. You are not invited. Don’t compare your lousy Thanksgiving to ours, for you are sure to be disappointed. Be forewarned!
Maeve: My husband, Dr. Trey Sanders, wants you to know, that his decision to pose for and post a million romantic photos of he and I on Facebook was 100% malicious and intentional. He desired for you to eat your heart out from jealousy! Be forewarned! Our marriage is none of your business but if you want to keep torturing yourself by peeping our online pictures, that is entirely up to you. Enjoy your Thanksgiving holiday, without my husband! Be forewarned!
Maeve: When you first moved to Carlsbad, you had no friends. You had a hard time making female friends, so you gave up on that. You became focused on meeting men to date and possibly marry. You found that difficult as well. You applied for jobs and worked a bit, with little success. When you met Stephen you focused on your successful boyfriend who reminded you of Keith. Stephen was a chemistry major, while in college, like Keith. But he was really nothing like Keith, now that you think about it. He pales in comparison, to be honest. But you dated Stephen until you got the marriage bug. The marriage bug eventually grew into the child-rearing bug and then it was really too late. Now you are, as they say, “baby trapped.” Don’t look back. Don’t look around too much and compare your life/partner to others, for you will only grow bitter. You are better off focusing on your life in the present…and keep my husband out of your thoughts or we will be coming for you. Be forewarned!
Val: Yes, you are pathetically unlucky in love, unemployed, and you only made friends late in life by mere happenstance. (Not that you know what the word happenstance means) Be forewarned!
Well she seems pretty insightful so here it goes. You know how everyone has that one person they can’t get over? I am going to make a list of everything negative about my person.
1. He is married
2. He lives too far away from me
3. He is a tease
4. He was too shy
5. His timing is terrible
6. He can’t think for himself
7. He is outgoing and I am an introvert
9. He is out of my league in looks and career
10 He is a Leo! Nuff said.

The holidays are upon us and I am dreading it, in a way. So now I would like to vent a bit about some of my family food traditions that I have endured and would love to end permanently.
The first tradition is partaking in a side dish, which my mother loved and used to try to pass off as a healthy salad. I was a child of the 1980’s/90’s in California. I occasionally felt like my parents were trying to raise me in the 1950’s deep South which I instinctively rejected. My mother used to present Ambrosia as a healthy salad. I just want to say that first of all, I knew all along that Ambrosia was not a healthy salad. It has the health equivalent of gummy bears lodged in chilled whipped cream/jello. Weird!
Also I would like to take the time to ruthlessly slander fruit cake. Fruit cake tastes disgusting and also is not healthy. It is the old school equivalent to gummy bears baked into sugar bread. Ick, so bad and bad for you. I really don’t want to gain 20 pounds this Christmas if I can possibly help it. Some American holiday food traditions need to be put to rest for good. No thank you to Ambrosia and Fruit cake this year, every year.
Matt: You thought that I was not going to comment on this. You were wrong. I must say that this is a stupid blog entry but no more stupid than the rest. So, we do not eat crap like this in Venezuela. We do not consume loads of hydrogenated corn syrup on the daily. That is one reason we remain so physically fit while you are so chubby. Your overall health is inferior because your waist circumference rivals that of a beached whale. You heard me. “Thar she blows.” I might have received a little inspiration from your most feared stalker Tony Meister on that dig. Be forewarned!
Val: Matt is right. We don’t eat fattening fruit cake or nasty Ambrosia here in Venezuela. Our holiday food is divine. Not that you will ever get a taste. Have a holiday with your stale fruitcake and soggy Ambosia, while we live our best beach life. Eat your heart out that you remain on the outside looking in. Be forewarned!
I would never let the money change me! Who me? I bought 5 California Powerball lottery tickets today and waiting for the drawing at 7:59 pm. Woo hoo! I’m the big winner! I only wasted $5 today!
The draw has been delayed. I am going to bed and will dream of winning. I will manifest the win in my dreams. Good night!
Everyone watching Tiger King believing/claiming that Carole Baskin killed her ex-husband were dead wrong! I stood alone defending her. I was right!!

So today I received an email from a stranger named Matthew Wolfe. He is an esteemed writer and sociological researcher at NYU. Had I been more well-read, I might have known that already. He actually read my published article at OC87 Recovery Diaries in which I mentioned that I was considered a missing person at one point in my life. Basically my Dad called the police and reported me missing once, when I was off my meds, and disappeared for a few days. Matthew wanted to ask me a few questions and left his contact information. So I obliged and helped him with his research today. I don’t know how much help I was though. My missing persons case was closed when I got the psychiatric help that I needed. He mentions in one of his articles about “white women syndrome” and how missing white women get prompt attention and publicity. I am very glad that I came home from my excursions within a few days and my case was closed quickly. I am glad that I won’t be haunted by Missing Persons posters and news stories for the rest of my life. I wonder if anyone would have made such a public fuss about little old me? So anyway, now I am following the research of Matthew Wolfe and hopefully I helped him in some way. If he publishes any articles where he uses the material we discussed, I asked him to let me know and I will share it here. Finding missing persons and learning more about the process of finding missing persons is a very interesting and important topic!
