GWDF D11a Ominous? 2 City Psychologists came and interviewed me today. UPDATED here - http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com/2012/08/update-gwdf-d11a-2-ominous-city.html
One I've been acquainted with for 3-4 years, the other not till today. They are nice folks. I think their interest is human, but I also think their interest is 'professional,' well, that's their 'job,' but do they understand their job as did Alfred Adler, or Nurse Ratched; as does every medical and psychological association's charter, or the APA' charter and core (they're the ones that at the highest level approved and developed the Bush/Cheney Torture Protocols); as did Morpheus, or Smith; as did Alice Paul, or the bulk of the women''s suffragists; as did Diane Nash/Core/Freedom Riders or MLK Jr and the rest of the civil rights movement of 1961 - entirely opposite?
I suspect they were sent by my beloved doc Cardile, which makes me a little sad, tho maybe by protocol she has little professional choice.
In our long conversation in which I was completely open, as I hope they were, one appropriately mentioned that some could view what I'm doing as crazy, and have me committed (she wasn't quite that blunt) to which I replied - 'I see the most likely end to what I'm doing as being lifelong committed to a torturous institutionalization, a hideous living death in St. Elizabeth's Mental Hospital, tho I'd infinitely rather be dead.' (Hmmm. That's how the USSR handled (handles?) things, thinking themselves right, and righteous, and 'sane.')
Interesting.
Not my business what others do. Just my business what I do.
I wonder who, if anyone, would come to the defense of my sanity? Uh, besides me, I mean, and Adler and Frankl, Biko, Jagerstadder, King, Gandhi, Paul, Nash, Corrie, Jesus...? Doubtful.
"We need to stop Talking, stop Thinking, and Start Loving." Within days of this occurring to me one cold, February morning in 2007 or so, as I deeply pondered how we could do NOTHING of promise to stop the Darfur Genocide, within days the first cross was on my forehead - 'Start Loving.' The Heart, Loving, Uses EVERY NEURON! But the Head and the Flesh in charge, the alternative, uses Talking and "Thinking" to defuse, to displace, the Creative Tension within ourselves that Dr. King saw as the sum and substance of all sufficient Motivation, quite rightly.
I expect from this moment forward to increase many fold my resolve to discuss, to talk about, to dialog about what I am doing no further, as was my stated resolve since the beginning of this Death Fast. For those today, or in the future, that wish to understand what I am doing and why, tho it is obvous to anyone and everyone's never visited Soul, I have done, and will continue to leave adequate logs. But for everyone else, that wants to 'talk' and 'think' about what I am doing, rather than 'Seeing it' for what it obviously is, I intend to quadruple my resolve to stop depriving you of that opportunity. I'm a Bangladeshi, a Maldivian... one of the last canaries in the Coal mine called earth in which you all live - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sxc2-Do7BU

GWDF2 D12a Docs agree to keep me pain free 8 more weeks
Saw my beloved doc Cardile this morning. Amazing. Wants me to get the colonoscopy and down the throat exam, but accepts that I won't. Understands I just want to be kept functional for the next 4-8 weeks. Is tripling down on the acid reducers - going to 2 doses of prilosec per day vs 1 and adding 2 daily doses of zantec. Wants me back in immediately if things flare badly again, or to see me in a week of they stabilize.
Slept WELL last night, and only mild pain today.

GWDF2 D11A ER Doc guesses ulcers. Meds proscribed.
Basically, they poked, prodded, IV'd and did more tests. Very impressive operation. If 'activists,' the so called 'progressives,' demonstrated .0001% the professionalism, commitment, seriousness of purpose, discipline as the young folks in the ER, everyone would have a future worth living.
The blood tests, and other tests, were inconclusive.
ER doc guesses ulcer, with pain referred to rest of abdomen. Wants me to get a colonoscopy and the other one, thru the mouth to see the stomach. Gave me ulcer meds 4 times per day.
I see my home doc, Cardile, tomorrow at 8:30.
I expect to decline the tests.
What I want is the least expensive way to manage pain for the next 4-6 weeks.
Finishing out the writing I'm doing and then the rest of the death fast is 99.99999% mental, and I just don't want to lose all this time, energy, and effectiveness to the hours per day of pain. Like, uh, NOW. DAMN!

GWDF D10B Stomach pain may force a temporary hold
It's borderline. The pain is pretty much always there, but not always debilitating. Yesterday was one of the days I've lost hours of work, just trying to manage the pain. Today, so far, I can pretty well work. I can't tell if the meds I'm taking are helping or causing. Next day of incapacitation I expect to go back in for a consultation. If tests could reveal some low cost treatment (that it is free to me is immaterial), or if there are low cost pain meds I could take, I'd like to know.

He's the only one of Romm, McKibben, Brown... in whom I find moral integrity - putting their bodies where their mouths are, to I think I'll still find useful words from the others, particularly before their mass surrender at Copenhagen. Except for Hansen, they don't STAND for anything. Auth-whores, nothing more? Just reporting a blow by blow of the rape from a comfortable distance? If there's more, I can't find it. Not anymore. Just pandering to the gawkers and bureaucrats.

Loving, here. Have you ever been taunted at one of your coffee shops? Sworn at? Viciously and cruelly discriminated against, repeatedly?
August 25, 2012
My dear friends at xxxx coffee shop, (their Identity protected, so far)
Have you ever been taunted at one of your stores? Sworn at? Viciously and cruelly discriminated
against, repeatedly? I have. Not by your
staff, who are genuinely nice and professional folks, but still, at your
store. Is that what you are about? It was clear discrimination. That’s illegal I suspect. It certainly is not what xxxx, or the
building owner wants to be associated with here in DC just blocks from
Judiciary Square. Is it?
The most recent cursing and discrimination against me at your store was
today. I arrived about 8:30, purchased a
large cup of decaf, and your store being quite empty that early, sat discretely
at a table back in a corner for an hour.
You see, I have facial tattoos, and as a courtesy to you, I sat in a
rear corner out of the way of folks.
Your staff is very nice. I try to
show my appreciation. Last evening for
example, at about 7:30pm, I spent at least 10 minutes, probably 15, cleaning up
and straightening up your patio. Your
staff would have done it but you must
have had a busy day, chairs were all over, and trash was all on the ground, all
around. By the time I was done, all the
chairs were in their place and the trash picked up.
Today, after drinking some of my coffee, not wanting to take
space in your store, customers were accumulating, I went to a remote part of
your patio to continue working for a while.
Within 10 minutes, as has happened to me at least twice before, the
power was cut to the outlet I was using for my laptop. Within 5 minutes after that, the man that did
it the first time, a dark skinned man, early 40’s I’ll guess, when I saw him I
said, ‘I purchased coffee here this morning.’
He said nothing. ‘I’m going to
speak to the manager about this,’ meaning your store manager, to which he
replied, “I’m the manager you son of a bitch.”
HUH? HUH??? Cursing at me?
The prior time I saw him directly was about 2 months
ago. Again, I had purchased a drink, and
was sitting in a remote part of your patio.
After about 10 minutes the power was cut. 5 minutes later, the man who today said he
was the manager, came out and taunted me.
WHAT? ‘Oh, did something happen
with the breaker? Oh, I don’t know
anything about it, but I guess it did.’ Lying
to me. What?!?!?!?
Is it because I have facial tattoos, that obviously don’t
have a lot of money, from my appearance, probably don’t have a home, or is it because
of those three things on top of which I am a highly educated, multiple degrees,
white guy? It is absolutely rank
discrimination, which as I’ve said, to
my knowledge, is against the law in America, in DC.
I expect that like every other of your customers, from here
on in the future, I will be treated exactly as are all of your other customers,
including, the power outside will be on, and left on when I use it. Period.
I know you will do with this letter what best serves this
end, so that I need not do so. It can be
used by you with your corporate management, DC Homeless Advocacy Law Center,
the building manager, other DC Legal advocacy… or whomever you need to
terminate this discriminatory, illegal, unprofessional behavior. I wish this nasty man nothing ill. I wish the discrimination to stop, by your
action, not mine.
NOW. I’ll know your response by how I’m treated in the
future. I know your staff will all vouch
for my civility as will dozens of Secret Service, and Park Police officers in
town who have watched my respectful advocacy for human rights these last 9
years or so.
Your brother, no matter what,

GWDF2 D10A Debilitated with Pain again today. Bk 3 -
Sleep, thank goodness, so far is relatively painless.
When I awake I have 2-300 of my daily 800 calories, partly, so I can take the Prilosec and Iron without too much pain. Uh, not today. For the last 3 hours it is all I can do to try and doze and deal with the stomach pain. :-( So much work time being lost.
If this continues, Monday I'll seek an appointment with the doctor for pain management.
Those hours that I can work I'm compiling, "Your next 200 billion kids are on planet Hell unless now.... The Words of James Hansen, Lester Brown, Joe Romm, Michael Mann, IEA, IPCC...."

GWDF2 D8B Severe stomach pain 2nd day
My concern is the distraction from work. Today, I'm managing to keep working, pretty well.
My dear doc Cardile had proscribed prilosec several weeks ago. I took it for about 4 days and stopped because it seemed to bring on the ache. It is supposed to de-inflame the stomach lining. Starting this morning I'm trying it again. It can take up to 4 days if it is going to work.
Late this week or early next I expect to see the doc again if this continues.

GWDF D8A Back on post. Debilitated by stomach pain. :-(
Uneventful return trip, except my stomach hurt so bad I couldn't work, only try to rest, and that has continued the several hours I've been back. Was it the rocking of the bus? Progression of whatever I've got? Too much exertion? I'll watch it tonight, tomorrow... if this continues I may reconsider the tests, cuz I can't work, I can't concentrate with this pain. Wimp!
Mercifully, all of the stuff I left under a bench was there undisturbed, except for some work by rats, the four legged kind.
That's all for now. Got to go back to resting and trying to deal with this stomach pain.
