Re: DRAMATIC POLL

This is not really dramz, but a confession.
A good family friend of ours died yesterday. It wasn't unexpected, she had been very ill for a while, but she really wanted to hold on until Christmas. We are going to her viewing tomorrow night and I'm not looking forward to it. Not because I can't handle her death, but because I'm not sure I can deal with seeing her daughter. The lady was only 41 and their daughter is only 13. I can't imagine being her age and losing my mom. And she's handled it all so well. Fuuck.

Im so sorry. I'll admit that death is pretty much impossible for me to handle, so kudos to you for being able to handle that part. I couldn't imagine seeing a 13 year old cope with losing a parent. It would break my heart. Seeing my friend when her mom died a month ago was so hard. I hate not knowing what to say. It was so hard when she asked if I had said goodbye (open casket) and I had to tell her I couldn't. I felt like a horrible person, but literally just being the room with the casket freaked me out. T&P's to you and her family.
I'm sorry about your friend, mara. *KW toe taps*
1. Biggest fight you've gotten in with a family member? friend? what was it about? I'll try not to make this a book. One of my college roommates and I got into a huge fight. She said that I was treating her unfairly and not "giving her the benefit of the doubt" (for what, I'm still not sure) and that I shouldn't keep asking her things like "When are you going to give me your half of rent/utilities for this month, oh and also last month?" and "Hey, how are you today?" She basically let it all out there in an e-mail and told me all of the things she'd evidently been thinking but not saying. (she didn't practice "don't e-mail when angry") We were best friends, she called me the worst things I've ever been called. I've not been spoken to like that before or since. I replied back with "I'm sorry you feel that way, let me know when your things will be out of the apartment." Then she called me in tears and I wouldn't answer. There's more but you get the idea. We haven't spoken since. It's been 4+ years.
2. Lamest argument you've had with the FI/H/SO/ex/whatever? Who started it? (Be honest.) We fight over the stupidest stuff. Like laundry in the living room. I probably start it.
3. Best work gossip/stories? I don't have any good stories that aren't confidential. Sorry.
4. Any secrets you're just DYING to tell someone, but you can't IRL? Not really. We're not TTC. I don't have any good Christmas gifts that I'm keeping my mouth shut about. I don't really have many secrets.
Me too! I've learned I have to explain my train of thought to H now. Otherwise he'll be like "how the fvck did you just go from talking about hanging up the Christmas lights to talking about switching the dogs to a raw diet?!" (That actually happened last week. ha)

I'm this way too. I can't help the associations my brain makes. they don't always make sense and sometimes I end up asking either really stupid or really nonsensical questions, but it gets the thoughts out of my head. H says sometimes I really need to think before I speak or people will confuse me with Jessica Simpson.
I am so glad I am not the only person who randomly switches topics in a matter of seconds. People always hassle me for it, but I just think it's because I am so smart that my brain moves faster than others. :P (Or insert other fun smiley that for some reason TN won't let me do.)
This is more of a brain fart thing than randomly switching topics, but I found this saying on Pinterest and it makes me laugh. "My train of thought derailed, there were no survivors."
Sesh, that is schaudenfreude at its finest!
Mara, I'm sorry.
I do think that there are people who ignore me totally. It's kind of amusing. I don't know if I'm being self centered, but there is one person who I think has never once responded to my posts. I don't particularly giveashit.
I
you Steph. Seriously.

You can't say it's me anymore!

Me either!
YEAH. DRAMA.
I think I'm at 221 now too. I kind of want to just take a year off from everything and see how many books I can actually read in a year =P

Nope! Not you either.
Any is a reading freak of nature.
That, and she was unemployed for 2/3rds of the year. SHE CHEATED. damn immigrants.
* Disclaimer: I am totally kidding. But not about the cheating part. it's an unfair advantage.

I think I would have read a lot of more books if I had found good ones. There's only so much money I can spend on books.
AND I have like, 40 PDFS sitting in my email, because I can't get a computer to hook my Kindle up to.
You wanted the drama so spill it!
I'm trying to read more but honestly, I'd rather write books than read them. that sounds awful, but it's how I feel.
I am reading the HG again and H lost Catching Fire. Noooo. It's around somewhere, but I'm sad it's currently not in it's proper place--my hands.
So I'm watching Neverland, and now I really want to write my Peter Pan story. At least then I can finally stop daydreaming about it.
