Oh askye, I'm so sorry. My thoughts are with you and your family right now.
As a kid and through college, home was where my family lived. Even in grad school, my apt was "my place" and home was where my parents lived. Now it's where I live, but in my case that's a bit overdetermined.
Funny thing is there are plenty of places I like better than LA, that I'd like to live in more than LA. My mom used to say "Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in."
I had the fat, old, and poor down pat before the movie started, so there wasn't much further to go on those roads. I just felt very alone.
But yes, K-Bug and I both snorfled at the, er, hair.
Absolutely separately....

Oh, askye, I'm so very sorry.
So much ~ma to your whole family, askye, and lots of punctuation, as well.
Erin, that's crappy that you are still having girly troubles.
Ginger, you have my sympathy on the itching.
As for the home thing, I was just remembering, when I went away to college, I felt more at home in the dorm than I ever did in the house I grew up in. My parents bought the house before I was born, and had it long after I left, yet I never really felt like I belonged there. I used to try to convince my dad to sell it and move to the country.
I am so sorry, Askye. Take care of yourself and your family.
(((askye)))
Thinking of you and his family, sweetheart, and sending thoughts for strength and courage for the next little while, and good memories to you all.
so sorry askye, love to you and your family.
(And a couple of bits struck me as racist, and kinda pissed me off.)
really? which ones?
Jesus H Christ, askye.
I'm so sorry for your loss.

I just came back from SatC. I was never a big watcher, so I mosly went just to go with my friend, and it kinda just made me want to slap everyone. (And a couple of bits struck me as racist, and kinda pissed me off.)
Ah, crap. My friend's mad into SatC, and she's planning a whole big party thing - we're all dressing up and everything. Not so much my cup of tea, but I love here and I approve of the dressing up notion, so...but it's sounding distinctly wince-inducing.
