Wow, so much of the gang is still here! I was rescuing a box of books from the garage when I found Will the Vampire People Please Leave the Lobby? (And I still have a Buffistas.org Cafe Press mug.) Allow me to say thank you to you all for your friendship in what was a very fragile and strange time in my life. Buffy fandom and you people changed my life and I think also saved it in many key ways. I am grateful to your wonderful, funny, wise and so so shiny selves. Love, ~jengod
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
People, there is no shame in backing away from the things going on the world. I don't want you leaving puddles on the floor.

Oh jengod, it's nice to see you.
I am vaguely reassured that other people are also in a fragile states, given my own broken/fragile/no-good headspace. I'm glad to know it's not just me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm glad to know it's not just me.
I have never been so broken, and am staring down what could potentially be a year of hell starting next week. No matter what shakes down, it's going to be a BIG strain on my relationship getting through it.

{{HUGS}} to all. Good night.

Steph, I should clarify. I'm not happy that anyone is feeling sucked into the rabbit-hole of despair. But I have been drowning this week and have felt pretty isolated and alone and overwhelmed. I keep feeling like it is just me.

Steph, I should clarify.
Oh, I wasn't saying that as a rebuke (as in, "How DARE you say you're glad it isn't just you?!?"); I was just elaborating, as is my wont. I'm also glad to not be alone in this unbelievable, stress, although I wish SO MUCH that none of us had such overwhelming stresses. And it is definitely not just you.

(this is how bad things are. I couldn't remember how to spell despair and had to google it. Then I mistyped week. Twice.)
In other news, my sis and her family evacuated from Ewa Beach to Waipahu but if FB can be believed, all is fine enough.
