[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I hope so. Poor punkin has been through so much in the last 6 months with the separation, move, sis going to college, leaving his friends, starting a new school, learning a new town, and having to make new friends.
He has been such a help and so patient through all of this. Week one of school has gone well and none of teacher were "Oh, you are CJ's mom..." at Back to School night.
I think it is a good idea ,too.
Talked to my sister on the phone a few hours ago. Mom is going through a reverse plasma transfusion at the moment to reverse the effects of the cumaden she takes before the surgery. It's scheduled for tomorrow at 10 AM back in California. The plan is a plate and screws in the ankle, it's a pretty big fracture from what my sister tells me. There's a reasonably high risk of hearth failure or stroke during or after the surgery, and then a long recovery. The hospital wants to put her into at least 6 weeks of nursing assisted care after the surgery. I get back to LA sometime Sunday night and my current plan is to pick up my car and drive directly to San Diego.
Yeah, I'd like it if the universe would let up just a bit.
OK, off to sit in on the 1st run through of TOMMY!AIFG! HoMG! My first show here. The band ROCKS. The actors are real good! And that's in the rehearsal hall. We (sound dept) have a lot of work to do, but I am excited!
Although, I missed a great race in the pool tonight. Dang it. Cést la vie.
Drew, continued ~ma for your mom. And safe travels all around, on boat, plane, and car.
So much ~ma for Drew's mother.
So much Yay! for CJ!
Shit, Drew. I'm so sorry. Successful surgery~ma and wishes for a speedy recovery to your mom.
Also, glad TCG is unharmed, sj.
Fuck, Drew, the universe needs to let the fuck up already.
I'm sorry, Drew. It's more scary shit and stress when I'm sure you don't have a lot left to deal with it. I hope it goes smoothly.
Oh Drew, I'm sorry all this keeps piling on you. I hope the surgery goes well tomorrow.
Okay, I'm headed to bed for a bit.
I just want best possible outcome. Mom never expected to outlive my Dad, his death was sudden and she's been the one in bad health for years. She's heartbroken. They had been married for 49 years. I don't want her in constant pain. She's said repeatedly that she just wants to go. I'm actually very calm about that, and okay with it. But this? This is not the way it should go down. I'm sure she's in a lot of pain right now, and in the midst of grieving, and frightened about all of it. What's going to happen is going to happen, I just hope that if it's a bad outcome I get to give her at least one last kiss and tell her I love her.
Thank you everyone for all of your very kind words.
