(((Nora))) So sorry for your loss.
Belated get-well-no-pain-ma to GC.
I have partied. I have bumped and grinded, more than I actually wanted to. I have seen ridiculous clothing. It's been fun. I went looking for boyz and one latched onto me. Kinda rude to my friend so it won't go anywhere most likely, but I achieved my goal for the evening. I was given non-alcoholic apple cider instead of promised champagne, which is totally bogus, but I have champagne now so all is well in the world.
I wish nothing but the best of and in life for each and every one of us.
Happy new year everyone. may it be better than last, even if last year was a great year for you.
(((Nora))) I hadn't realized you didn't have Tom there with you; I'm so sorry for your loss, and sorry that you have to get through this immediate grief without his good self beside you. Vibing all possible peace to your family, and blessings on your uncle's passing and his memory, and a safe and peaceful return to home and partner and comfort for you when this is done.
(((Glamcookie))) I'm glad you're home with of champagne and a shower and a doting wife and cats.
All sorts of pain-treatment~ma to Glam and sj and Hil and all the other Bitches trying to cope with physical miseries.
Lastly... mmmmmm, Vicodin. I've never hallucinated with any prescription drug, ever, but morphine made me queasy and half-crazed with itching. Vicodin, OTOH, oh so perfect.

Yeah, the new job thing made him joining me difficult at best. When I thought I was going back on Wednesday it seemed much more doable.
Off to the funeral home today and to pray I don't need to change my flight AGAIN. I really want to get home! (currently I am scheduled to leave Saturday at 12:30).
Man, I am wiped.
{{{Nora}}} Please don't hesitate to ask for anything. So much love to you and yours.

I had to skip again. Life being busy and crazy and stuff. I have a feeling this is the new me. It feels good except for missing my Bitches. Happy New Year to you all!
(((((Nora))))) I'm so sorry you are there by yourself. If there is anything at all I can do when you get home, please let me know.
Thank you, JZ. That is such a sweet wish. If the only positive changed I make in 09 is to find a way to deal with pain, it would be more than enough. The last couple days have been hell.
Oh, {Nora}! I also didn't realize you were down there without Tom. My thoughts are with you.
Nora, I've been thinking about you. I hope you can get back home to Tom on Saturday.
{{Nora}} I'm so sorry for your loss.
GC, glad the doc gave you what you needed. Would that more doctors actually listened to their patients (ita's doctor, I'm looking at you.)
Happy New Year, Bitches! I had a magnificent evening. My dad and brother came over. I made teryaki-glazed salmon, acorn squash roasted in a balsamic-honey vinaigrette, steamed broccoli and topped it off with (frozen, the rest was enough prep for me) cherry pie for desert. We toasted the New Year with Kir Royales (champagne and creme de Cassis), while watching classsic Doctor Who. I couldn't have asked for a better day. I'm hoping it's a predicter of things to come in the new year.
