A Spurt of Sparrow

So, I use to think that the alters would come out at certain times, usually when triggered, but now I am wondering if they don't pop in and out periodically during the day.

A lady I watch "multiplicity" on Youtube, who also has DID, she allows time for her alters...blocks off time during the week.  For example, "Tuesday night, 4-9:00 pm is so and so's time"...wednesday morning 7-noon, is so and so's time, etc....She runs her alters and her life like a fine tuned machine.  Or at least it appears so on her program.  I am undecided about her routine.  I mean, what if say on "wednesday during so and so's time, I (host) want to do something else", how do I negotiate with an alter???  I want to understand how she does this, Multiplicity.  

My alters do not adhere to time, days, rules etc...it appears they only come out when triggered by an event, music or whatever..I believe mine flit in and out randomly throughout the day.   I have blocks of time that I can't account for...I may be driving then all the sudden I am at my destination and don't recall driving to get there.  I know that Sammy, Lilly and Tessa drive too.

It's like Sparrow lives her life and days in spurts...A spurt of Sparrow, a spurt of Ally, Lilly, Tessa, Sophee , Sammy and Kaos.  All through the day...no wonder I live in a constant state of confusion, frustration and "what the fuck?"  I have learned to brush off things and time I cannot account for....if nothing detrimental happened in that time, I blow it off...I have too...because focusing on "what the fuck" will drive me fucking insane...

I am also starting to think Boomer, my dog, recognizes when an alter is out.  He is so sensitive to me, I do believe he knows when I am Ally or one of the others...I can't prove this, however.

Tessa likes "lists", so I make lists of chores, errands etc that I need to do.  I will start the list, then before I know it, it is finished and I don't recall doing half the things I had listed...this is Tessa spurting in to do the chores, then spurting out and letting me back in....

fuck my life is so weird....
