You didn't hear from me for a pretty long time and I wanted to give you the reasons why. As a part of self therapy stuff.
First things first: The last two weeks were Hell for me. My "girl" broke up with me after 6 years. It came out of the nothing.
At first I thought she was banging another guy, cuz she was hanging around with him very often. I never liked him... Okay, I fucking hate this guy because he is a poser and a pseudo-intellectual, feeling like a kind of god because he works with children.
After she broke up and went away with him I grabbed a half bottle of strong liquor, some disgusting stuff which smelled like old people but I got pretty messed up. While I was drunk she came back with him and the snitch called the police on me. While I was vomiting into the bin suddenly two officers where standing in front of me and tried to "calm me down". The fact is: I was just sitting there and vomiting and never got aggressive or violent against nobody. They were gone pretty fast and they didn't arrest me.
My Ex told me that her personal stooge was worried that I could do harm to myself and called the police but I'm pretty sure he wanted to get rid of me so he could take on her. I mean If I'm worried about somebody, I'd call the medical services, explain the situation and these guys (professional people) decide if police backup is needed. That's the procedure here in Germany. Especially calling only the police on drunk people is pretty risky cuz they can panic and do stupid things.
Anyways. Two days ago I learned the real reason why she broke up:
She NEVER cheated on me, didn't even think about it for a second. The reason is: She's pretty unhappy in her body as a woman and wants to become a guy, I gotta be honest: She always had a "masculine" touch but still she was a real woman for me. A woman with abs is still a woman. At least biologically. She now gets professional help to achieve her wish.
Honest talk: Although I don't wanna see her face at the moment, I'm still ready to support her during the transformation process. I'm not a asshole.
I moved to my sister and even got my own room here, a lot of good food and a lot of booze. And it has a tactical reason: The train station I'm stationed at the moment is just 2 bus stops away.
Another reason why I went dark for a longer time: My job. I had the opportunity to travel through most parts of Germany and surrounding countries. Freight always need to be on the move. East, West, North, South - Anywhere. Sometimes I felt like I'm on the run. But cigarettes, cheap kebab from a downturned station in the sticks, coffee and cold drinks make you feel at home in the loco.
I kinda love this nomad-style life. Always on the move, roaming free through the countryside. I mean, the old turks from back in the steppe were mostly nomads. Maybe there's a connection. I don't know. When I'm at home it just feels like a golden cage. But on the tracks I feel "complete". Guess I'm a modern day Goktürk riding a heavy metal machine instead of a horse.
But there is also good news:
I talked with my sister and decided to spool up our little musical project again.
also got a guy for the drums, my sister on the lead guitar and her spouse on the bass. I am the guy playing the rhythm guitar and do the disturbing screaming. Nothing came up yet but we will start with making music soon. We also got an opportunity to actually record an small EP in a professional studio. We probably will play "Thrash 'n' Roll" - a pretty unknown genre. Having the melody of classical heavy bands like Maiden, Priest with vocals like Sodom or Kreator, combined with clear, melodic parts. When we record stuff, I'll share it

What about my Maps?
I will start working on Project Caucasus some time. Can't give you a date but I'm not "dead" yet. Maybe I'll can manage do work after my drives for an hour or two. We will see.
That was all for now.
Stay frosty, guys!
