Shit's all sorts of different now.

Sigh.

My grandfather was hospitalized last night for complications stemming from a blood transfusion. My mother was supposed to call me this morning to give me an update. She was supposed to call my sister, too.

She didn’t.

Now, I can’t get a hold of anyone. No cell phones, no home phones. Parents, grandmother, uncle. I’m terrified to call the hospital.

My family is weird about this stuff. Everything could be fine and they don’t want to bother me at work. My grandfather could be dead, and they don’t want to bother me at work. They wouldn’t tell my sister knowing she’d tell me.

Dammit.

I've since called the hospital - my uncle said that my mom was there and listening. He said grandpa was "busy" and he would remind my mom about calling me.

Doesn't make me feel better.

It's NEVER too late for anger and righteous indignation!

Aimee, I'm so sorry to hear about the stress with your grandfather. Also, if you are still up for dinner plans with J and P, could you give my cell a call? I don't want to bug you at work when you're busy.

{{{Aimee}}} I hope you hear good news about your grandfather soon.

Joins the righteous indignation corner too.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Aimee, I am righteously indignant on your behalf.

Silence means security silence means approval

Today's work-related neologism:

FRUSTACULAR.

Since the DOCUMENT FROM HELL was completed, work has actually gotten WORSE.

ION, someone I know from MSFT pretty much demanded that I submit my resume because they'd "snap me up in a heartbeat." I don't really want to work for The Evil Empire, but I'm considering it.

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

I hope your grandfather is okay, and that your family gets a clue about letting you know things, Aimee.

Herding cats for fun

That happens all the time in my family. I'll hear "blah blah blah BIG NEWS YOU DIDN'T KNOW blah blah blah blah..."

And I say, "what!" and get back "Didn't anybody tell you?"

Apparently I'm supposed to be a mind reader at home as well as at work.
