I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I just need a damn teleporter. I drove over 500 miles Saturday (well, three hours of it was technically Sunday morning) and today will clock over 150.

I'm sorry - you need 30 qualifying trips and 50,000 miles inprder to use the teleporter once.

What is even happening?

Aimee, I'm so sorry for your loss. Peace to your cousin and baby. Did you know she was ill?

If he is going willingly, this is really the best possible scenario. Diabetic and alcoholic is really a bad combination health-wise.

It is. I think there's also almost a weird extra physical component to both the addiction itself, and of course there is to how the alcohol is metabolized. I wish him health and recovery, Cass, and strength to your sister.

Nope. Parents thought they had told me. They just saw him and the baby at the family reunion last weekend.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Vibes to all hurting Bitches. This Monday hit people hard, it seems.

{{{Aimee}}} Strength for your cousin. How tragic.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Sorry to hear about your cousin, Aimee.

Mostly lurking...

Oh, Aimee, that's just tragic.

Cass, I'm glad to hear that the BIL is going willingly to treatment. You're a good sister. Good luck.

Some days I hate doctors and pharmacies and health insurance companies. This is just bull shit. 10 FREAKING DAYS AGO, I tried to refill my meds. Two of them came back that they needed prior authorization. The pharmacy has called the necessary doctors' offices twice, and it's still coming back as prior authorization necessary. So, either BOTH doctors haven't done their jobs or the health insurance company is fucking up. But, at any rate, I need my meds. I've been off them for four days, and one of them is my anti-d. The pharmacy wasn't going to give me any more to hold me over, but I begged and cried. They gave me three days worth. Hopefully I can get some samples from my doctor when I call him tomorrow to yell at him.

Oh, man. You got a double gut punch, then. Oh honey, I think Taco drownage sounds right.

Recovery~ma to Laura's MiL. Glad to hear the procedure went well.

{{Teppy}} Heart~ma to the dad.

{{Aimee}} Very sad making. I hope the tacos do whatever you hope they will do. I don't know if you can drown in tacos, but clearly we could bury you as if you were in sand with just your head sticking out. Then we could let Em feed you the tacos. Wonder how that would turn out?
