I went to bed early last night because I wasn't feeling well. Got up at 5 this morning to excrutiating kidney pain. I knew exactly what was happening. I had a kidney stone. If you've never had one before IT HURTS LIKE HELL!
By the time I got to the hospital the pain had eased. Which meant, of course, that it was passing. Yep, folks, I passed a kidney stone this morning. hehe.
They gave me some wonderful pain medicine. And now I'm all better.
One more thing. Some comments have been removed. I'm thinking Blogger must've done it inadvertantly. I know I was having problems with some other things regarding the publishing of comments, and I know they were scheduled for an outage so it may have been during that time.
I can only retrieve two comments, and I will do that and post them shortly.
Profile of the Sociopath
Glibness and Superficial Charm
Manipulative and Conning They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible.
They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.
Grandiose Sense of Self Feels entitled to certain things as "their right."
Pathological Lying Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.
Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.
Shallow Emotions When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.
Incapacity for Love
Need for Stimulation Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.
Callousness/Lack of Empathy Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others' feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.
Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.
Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet "gets by" by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.
Irresponsibility/Unreliability Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.
Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.
Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.
Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.

The Seven Deadly Sins
Lust: that pretty much speaks for itself
Gluttony: eating too much and too expensively
Greed: an excessive materialistic hoarding and manipulating authority to get more than you need
Sloth; unwillingness to care; laziness and indifference
Wrath/Envy: I put these two together because they intertwine with jealousy, hatred and anger towards the one who has more; in Keith's case it would be, "love of one's own good perverted to a desire to deprive other men of theirs"-Dante
Pride: thinks he's more important and attractive than others;
Dante- "love of self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbor"

This is from Keith's Ego.
I'm Keiths' Ego and I'm here to explain what I really meant in that interview:
I want all the press critics and whoever reads this to know how important I am. That's why I tote around this cool Clinton bag I got at Hill's last party to the TV Critics thing in L.A. I wanted them all to see who I know and how much they love me. Did I mention that the Clintons invited me to both their birthday parties and their Christmas parties? Yeah, that's how I roll: me, Bill, Hill, and Mick and the Boys.
The Clintons love me so much, everyone does. Hillary's mom is a regular viewer, so is Elizabeth Edwards. (Note to self: Insert more names of as many C-List celebs who watch me as often as I can in all interviews).
But I just couldn't go their Christmas party. I had to stay home and watch the girlfriend knit. (Wait--how long has it been since any mention was made in the tabloid press of my sleeping with my groupies and then dumping them? A year or so? Okay, scratch all references to the girlfriend. Don't need to mention her so much anymore. Maybe another hot fan will think I'm single and I can have another hot hotel hook-up. And I've mentioned her so much that everyone already knows I must be a stud because I'm pushing 50 and I've got a hot little 20-something at home).
Where was I? Oh yeah, pain. Such pain. I want my fans to feel my pain. I'm so torn, conflicted, agonized. (But come on, everyone knows that Obama is going to win and I want to have an in with the Obama administration. So I had to say what I did about Hill and Bill because I want to be one of the cool kids, you know, the kind who ignored me in high school, college, for most of my life.) Did I mention that the Clintons invited me to their parties? And so I'm deeply pained that I might never get another invite from them ever again after what I said about them which is why I'm pained because then how will everyone know how important I am if I can't mention going to their way cool parties in interviews? So it hurt me. It hurt me bad. So bad. And I want them to know that's why it wasn't personal to them, it was just personal to me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Because it's all about me. I loves me some me.
This is also from Keith's Ego.
