Trudy, I would try your suggestion except (1) I don't know who of my friends I would need to talk to to get some, and (2) Pete would be SO very not thrilled at the notion.
Heh, Jilli, Tom is the same way in general, but one night I was just in so much crampy stomach horrible pain he was all, don't you have a
leeeetle
bit around? And I did, and I partook, and it was good. It doesn't take much, and the effects are pretty quick, and it gets me to sleep, at least. The issue of #1, though, is logistically stickier.
Hec- God. I am so, so, sorry that you are all having to go through this.
Damn, Hec, I hope this is the worst it gets. It's good that EM has you and other good friends to help out in this situation.
I hate to even ask, but you said pyscho ex's son's mother is dead...there's no chance that's linked to psycho ex, is there?
Thanks for the concern, Kristin, but she died of breast cancer. It would make a singularly depressing novel showing how that family unraveled after she died. She was so strong and such a great mom and held everything together. I cut him a lot of slack because obviously losing your wife and raising your kids on your own is extremely difficult. But basically he collapsed into a neurotic pile of selfishness. Some people rise to that kind of challenge, some manage to do no harm. He was weak and his kids have suffered for it. The daughter sensed it and started withdrawing from the family in her early teens and has successfully escaped to college this year. No such luck for the son.
Alas it appears to have been the victim of a paperwork error.
Grrr. It was good AND fun to say
Oh Hec. Wow, that makes it even more tragic. I am relieved to hear that there's no chance PE (psycho ex) was involved, though.
Oh Hec, I am so sorry and I wish all the peace~ma and safe~ma and restraning order being made permanent~ma to you guys. You and EM and JZ are wonderful in your protection of Emmett and EM. Should all women being terrorized have protectors and a support system like that.

Yeah, that's the thing, it's just a liiiiiitle bit.
It's funny, I'm so much more of an advocate than I am a partaker. I see no rational reason for it to be illegal and so many good things about it.
Kristin! Do you have the link to your New Orleans pictures handy? I need to embarss myself.
Shallow fashion question!!
The Shower is this Sunday. I am wearing black gauchos [insert cringe] with knee high black Victorian-esque boots.
Should I wear: This blouse [link]
or this sweater: [link] [I have it in teal] with a black camisole underneath??
