<h1>&#8220;Veni,Vidi,Vici&#8221; means:</h1>

<h3>Виктор Пелевин «Числа»</h3>
<p>- &#8230;Не для себя стараюсь.  Ты хоть знаешь, сколько людей в цепочке,</p>
<p>Стёпа вспомнил, что недавно, совсем в другой вселенной, уже слышал эту фразу.</p>
<p>-         Знаю, &#8211; сказал он. – Вся страна.</p>
<p>-         Это раньше была вся страна.  А теперь всеь свободный мир, понял, нет?  И несвободный мир тоже.</p>
<p>-         Понял, понял.  Классная у тебя работа, Лебёдкин.  Пришёл, увидел, победил.</p>
<p>-         Это раньше было – пришёл, увидел, победил, &#8211; хохотнул Лебёдкин.  А теперь знаешь как?  Вы-бал, убил, закопал, раскопал и опять вы-бал.  Темп жизни совсем другой.</p>

<p>I love Pelevin’s style.  “Dialectics of transitional period from nowhere to nowhere”.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Coming back to my own insanity.  I just realized that today is the day 42.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>4<sup>th</sup> February, 2010 – 42 for those who remember that 42 is my number.  We’ll see if the number has any significance.  It is always “either…or”  Either it has significance or not.  I am not obsessed with it, but now it tends to jump out.  I guess my eye is trained now to pick 42 out of the crowd.</p>

<p>I like you too. I no longer hide behind my computer. Expect me to visit your club. Some facts about me:<br />
- Light brown hair<br />
- movie star-good looks<br />
- classically trained in theater, ballet, and engineering<br />
- currently working on a 14 volume encyclopedia set that explains everything about everything<br />
- rated with the second highest sperm count in North America. Fertility clinics routinely knock on my door.<br />
- trained as an astronaut with the Air Force but turned them down since half of my 14 cats are sick and its not a good time for me to leave the planet.</p>
<p>Ok, some of the above is not true. The cat thing is true though.</p></div>

<p>My ballet is Physical Metallurgy! I love to ask people to help me understand things that I already know. I pretend to be a moron (well, I kinda am). Did I get a good response to Physical Metallurgy? Oh, boy. And I have Masters in It. Be my guest. If only that. I have A Bachelor in IT. I am analytical. Hey, could be worse.</p>
<p>And kinda speak garbage. But I stopped teaching it (it is exhausting!) People ask for an explanation, I start, then they get tired (brain power failure) and they force me to leave. Well, good luck. I am up for any challenge. However, I no longer interested in Tauruses. The Bulls keep coming and I cannot handle it. Boy, was it a rough day! I crash land from my marriage as of now and I sit at Chapters writing creatively and who comes to my universe? But FIFTH Taurus! I do not want even want to go there. OUTCOME!!! Get that! I was born on Halloween. NO BS. I cannot handle Tauruses. So, stop, full stop, no EXPLANATIONS! I give him everything and what do I get back? Get the f&#8230; out of my life! I will. But it goes both ways. And it only took me five LOVES? Am I good or am I good?</p></div>

<p>A++++++++++++++++++++ for the sense of humour! If you want to take a number, take 2.</p>
<p>My fifth Taurus depleted me of all the energy and I come home and I read your post! Boy, was I laughing! You made my day, Wentai! Introverts have it harder, therefore, they are smarter!</p></div>

<p>The club goes extremely well. The Starbucks Manager wants to throw me out, but I kinda win anyway. I am Russian, boy, do I know how to fight or do I know how to fight? Outsmart your enemy. You do not have the wits? You do not have the guts? Then go get it! If you want. Motivation only comes from WITHIN.</p>
<p>I started my day quoting Chapters. Notes from my notebook: &#8220;Your children are precious to us&#8230; Do not leave them unattended&#8221;. (NO COMMENTS!) &#8220;F&#8221; for customer service. &#8220;F&#8211;&#8221; for writing. However, my IT guy has already signed to get the first diploma from my club. NO BS. So I need two fill to positions: The Diploma Issuer and The Number Tracker. So many people, so I cannot even remember the names of the guys that I have sex with. Not important anymore!</p>
<p>Here is my creative writing. It is all about ME!</p>
<p>Luchadora por la liberdad,</p>
<p>&#8220;tener plena liberdad para hacer algo&#8221;</p>
<p>And this is the BEAUTY I am an &#8220;independiente colaborador &#8221;</p>
<p>Why? Well, kinda, my former husband took my car keys, my cellphone and everything else, but hey, I am still alive. And, boy, does it feel good!!! Finally! Do not wait! Change your patterns. If you know what you want, what are you waiting for?!   <strong>GO GET IT</strong>.</p>
<p>Am I forgettable? Yes or no, simple question. If no, then please come to my funeral, because I may not make it through another day.</p></div>

<p>Sounds rough. And yes, introverts do have it harder, as we have to handle most of the rough patches alone.<br />
When I look back at my life, at the journey I&#8217;ve made over the years, I see two sets of footprints, but during the toughest times there was only one set of prints. I asked god why I was alone during the hardest times.<br />
&#8220;Because,&#8221; said god, &#8220;I was clinging to your back during the really rough patches.&#8221;</p></div>
