Just thought I’d throw this out there. I’m sure it’s a phase and will pass. Occasionally I get obsessed with random things and for a few days or weeks those things take up all my time and energy. My obsessions tend toward the strange: what the higher dimensions look like, how languages evolved, the function of the pineal gland, universes with different laws of physics, why time goes by faster as you age, remote places in the world like Antarctica, books I loved as a child, dragonflies…and the Illuminati. (Cue Twilight Zone theme).
Anyone else have weird obsessions they want to share?

For a while there I was obsessed with Edie Sedgwick.

I had a very weird obsession with British YouTubers a few months ago. It got a bit unhealthy too. 😉

British Youtubers? LOL! Well, I’ve had weirder obsessions than even that.

Until yesterday, I was obsessed with eBay. I’ve been an on eBay for a little over ten years. I have received over 600 transaction feedbacks, all positive, not a single neutral or negative. Plus I have left 702 feedbacks for other eBay sellers and buyers. Only 5 of the feedbacks I’ve left for others were negative, and only 7 of the feedback I left were neutral. 690 of the transaction feedbacks I have left in the past ten years — that’s over 98% — were positive.
Which I think is remarkable, especially considering that I went through menopause during these past ten years and was grouchy and was kind of hard to please for awhile due to that. Plus four of my precious family members died during this past decade, which also negatively affected my thinking and my emotions and at times, in hindsight, made me a bit unreasonable.
But now, after all these years and all of my mostly very positive transactions on eBay, I am ending my eBay account. I will shop and sell via Craigslist and Amazon from now on. This is because, since eBay’s recent split from PayPal, eBay apparently no longer cares when a seller lies and cheats a buyer. I spent over an hour on the phone with eBay customer service yesterday, finally ended up talking to an alleged supervisor, and I could not believe how uncaring, unreasonable, unethical, and downright NARCISSISTIC eBay has become!
It’s sad that so many companies stop caring about treating their customers fairly when they get too big. My eBay member ID is e-bay-sailing. Some people like to go yard sailing, I liked to go sailing on eBay.
But there will be no more e-bay-sailing for me. I can no longer trust them. 😦

What you describe is happening everywhere. Corruption is everywhere you turn.

Thanks, Lucky. I just read through the website on the link you provided. Then I asked the great Google oracle: Who is Dr. John Coleman? Here is a site I found interesting:
http://www.conspiracyarchive.com/2014/11/10/two-friendly-queries-for-dr-john-coleman/
The comments on that site are interesting, too.Some of the comments are pretty recent. Basically they are debunking Dr. Coleman. They say he doesn’t have a doctorate, either, at least not from the UK as he supposedly claims. But… how do we know the debunkers are telling the truth about anything, you know what I mean? It’s like the question of who is policing the police.
There are a lot of very scary conspiracy theories online. Back in May when I took all those photos of the mile long train loaded with military tanks heading into Texas from New Mexico, I started searching online for information and found all kinds of crazy conspiracy theories about Jade Helm “martial law,” which led me to sites with conspiracy theories about what really happened on 9-11, who was behind it, how they really destroyed the twin towers, and why they did it — plus I found a lot more scary conspiracy theories, on videos and on alternative news reports, some of which claimed that the people behind 9-11 also have been causing all the severe weather, earthquakes, etc., around the world, through something called “HARP,” as part of their diabolical plan to destroy society and then take over the world.
Many of the things I was finding were presented in such a way that they seemed credible and believable. I got so overcome with anxiety that I couldn’t get to sleep hardly at all for about two weeks.
Then… I finally got too exhausted to care anymore! I realized that worrying won’t change anything. So, instead of worrying, I decided that until and unless the world actually does end, I am just going to live in the here and now and enjoy my life as much as I possibly can. So far, my living in the now strategy is working pretty good. I wake up in the morning, I pray and turn everything over to God, then I have breakfast, I take the dog for a walk in the sunshine, I do some chores, I drink some decaf green tea while reading a good Michael Connelly book, I enjoy the sunset, enjoy spending time with people I care about. And life these days is pretty good in my little corner of the world. 🙂

That’s all you can do! Yes I remember when you were so anxious over that Jade Helm thing. Obsess too much over this stuff and it can really make you feel nuts. Just enjoy each day as much as you can, the way you are doing. ❤

I heard that when you watch a lot Youtube video’s on the illuminati, it triggers an alert and they put you on a list to be investigated. I’m just kidding. When I went through that phase I was paranoid. LOL 😉 I comprehended these lyrics of John Mayer’s song differently after seeing some “MeettheTruth.com” videos, “there’s no such thing as the real world, just a lie we have to rise above”. Some of the videos seem far fetched, but one or two seem right on the money. I love how your blog covers so many interesting topics. Being obsessed with something is fun, but wears off quickly with me. Enjoy it. I’m looking for something new to obsess over which is a drag.

I agree, some of the videos are eerily accurate and seem true, and others (like the reptilians and secret cloning lol) seem really out there.
I’m already getting burned out on this illuminati stuff but haven’t found another obsession yet to replace it!
I’m glad you’re enjoying the blog.
