You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

Aimée, it's always so sad to hear about friends drifting apart. But there are a couple of reasons to wait before you make any decisions. First, you're really tired right now. Second, weddings and any crisis around a wedding are not real life. Get through all of this as well as you can, and then give her a chance to be your friend again when her world extends beyond her wedding.

Because books.

Oh, Aimee, that's sad. But also, Sparky is very wise.

{{{Em}}} Poor little thing.

Yeah! This. Man, I'm glad you people are around to do my thinking for me.

Thrive to spite them

I'm so glad Toto doesn't have Cushings, hopefully the vet will find out what's going on with him Friday and it will be something very treatable.

Poor Aimee and wee Em, I hope you get some sleep and she starts to feel better.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Health~ma for Em, sleep~ma for Aimee.

Thrive to spite them

My post got eaten!

I saw Wedding Crashers last night with the guy, we were both running late and then he had to leave right after so we didn't talk much, just went in and went out.

He was nice looking, kinda cute. From his voice I thought he'd be bigger, but he's not only short but has a very slight build. I'm wondering if my apperance will be an issue for him, if he'll call back. I'm not really worried, just curious.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Is this the BF that lives in LA and is also your landlord? (I'm just trying to place her in my mind)

Yes. We moved out here together.

I've been feeling the drifting for awhile, but it's mostly wedding related, so no decisions for me yet. Ijust hate feeling angry at her.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

poor Aimee poor Em - everyone sleeps and things get better.

It sounds interesting askye. I am very curious too. Did you laugh or not laught in the same places?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Toto!!

{{Anne}} I'm so sorry about your grandmother.

I think differently than she does and other things are more important to me than they are to her and I just want to cry because I feel like I don't want to be her friend anymore.

Aimee, I feel for you. I'm going through something like this with a friend of mine. Don't quite know how to handle it.

NOT CUSHINGS!!!!!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!

Yay, Toto! I'm so relieved. Now start getting better so vw can stop worrying.

{{{Aimee}}} {{{Em}}} I hope Em feels better soon.

{{{Hil}}} I agree with Sparky, you should get yourself some medical treatment soon.

Am so tired. However, I have found a new doctor. I swear she's not over 22, but she's smart and nice and she's willing to give me my pap next time so I don't have to find another doctor, and she's going to treat the psoriasis so I don't have to find a third doctor, and she gave me enough flexeril to take it twice a day instead of 15-20 times a month. I love her just for that.

Yay for good doctor! I hope she continues to be this helpful.

Aimee, you're right to say no to the extra money for the shower. As far as the friendship is concerned, if you can put those feelings aside til after the wedding, it might be easier to deal with the friendship then. Weddings are very very stressful imho, and maybe you can get back to being closer once all the craziness is over. Or, as I continue to read the thread, what Sparky said.

Askye, did you like Wedding Crashers? Also, good luck with the guy.
