I'm sorry. That combination of location and timing really sucks.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

It's an anniversary worth honoring, ND. I'm creeping up on the tenth anniversary of my Mom's death in two years, so I feel you.

My folks are still alive, but if there's anything I know about grief is that it's anything but simple, easy, or linear. It takes its space and time, often uninvited.
~ma to you, and to your memories of them.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I"m sorry, ND. It's tough, especially with other stresses in your life.

Sending loving thoughts your way, Drew. My dad is gone 37 years and my mom 3 now. Grief comes in waves, and when the adulting is overwhelming it naturally brings parents to mind too. I'm glad you are here with us and I hope being able to share gives you some comfort.

I have royal fucked up. Payment was due yesterday for mac's tuition and I mis-read that. They drop the student from classes if payment is not made on a due date. So now mac is not registered for classes and he has changed his password so I cannot do it for him and he is not answering his phone.
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK

Can you call the school?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The good news is that if Mac's community college is anything like my community college, they are desperate for enrollment. They will probably be thrilled to take his tuition, even if it is a little late.

In your defense, you've got a lot on your plate right now.

I have called the school. They will not take the payment. They will not re-enroll him in the classes via me over the phone.
