The boy will be fine. Bad concussion but he will be okay. He is in full rotten teen mode. Pissed about not having his phone. Very unhappy about the cath. At least they took the breathing tube out so he is now able to complain vocally.
Willow: Yes. Hi. You must be Angel's handsome, yet androgynous, son. Connor: It's Connor. Willow: And the sneer's genetic. Who knew?

[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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Sounds like he got lucky.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Laura, I'm glad to hear that.
And, once his parents get over the relief, they might want to have the breathing tube reinserted ... just so they don't have to listen to him complain.

Indeed. I should xpost to Natter too.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Laura, I'm relieved to hear he is doing well.

The first Christmas alone thing is starting to bite hard. He was diagnosed at this time last year. And we thought "OK, this is bad, but we've gotten through Bad before."
He loved Christmas lights, and the neighborhood has even more than last year. I figure once most of the lights are out and the Christmas music assault is over, that I'll be doing better. At least I was smart enough to go to the liquor store tonight to get my bottle of Kahlua (no bottles of wine that I like that were small enough I was willing to buy), because all the liquor stores are closing at 6 tomorrow. Because Utah.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Laura, very glad the boy will be okay and is alive to complain.
Connie, I'm sorry this season is so hard. Hell, that all of it is so hard.
My last-minute shopping is done. I made an appointment with my doctor for tomorrow morning, and thankful for a doctor who's seeing patients on Christmas Eve. He's going to have to change this BP medication, or something; even with the diuretic, my feet are so swollen I can barely get my shoes on. Walking around all those stores was such a misery. By the time I got home, I was limping. For the first time in my life, I feel old. This is unacceptable.

Thrive to spite them
Connie I'm sorry this is hard. Take care of yourself.
I snapped at Will over our Christmas Eve plans. I didn't mean to but it was right when I was off work and I was stresed.
I decorated a little bit and cleaned some. And grocery shopped.
I found pumpkin bread, but not quick bread, a yeast pumpkin bread, it was pretty good.
I still have to wrap presents and do more cleaning. I took pictures of my decorations. It's not much but I like it. I was going to add a few more touches but I ran out of room.

Laura, I am relieved and happy to hear about your nephew.
I'm sorry, Connie.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
It sucks, Connie. I'd like to say "It'll be ok," but after losing someone you love so much, "ok" might as well be on a different planet sometimes.
