man...
Broke ass.. My internet is gone for at least the next 2 months. It was 'pay the cable bill' or 'buy my son presents'. Guess who comes first. It's certainly NOT the cable company. Then they came off with this 'tude at me like I was some kind of deadbeat for not paying my bills. Well I'm SOOOO SORRY that I place my son ahead of paying your lame non-essential ass. Go to hell..
So, in other glorious news, both my granparents are still in the hospital. Through Christmas. There will be no 'holiday party' for this family. There will be no holly jolly christmas. No Yule log. No family gathered 'round the christmas tree. There will be my mom and mike. And me. And hopefully Gabe. Now some of you may ask "What more do you need?". Need? Nothing I guess. But given that most of my family is alive, it disappoints me that they can't just come together. I keep getting told of all the hardships set upon this family in the last year.. of how much stress there is, and how the holiday will just add to that, and how people need a break. From what? Themselves? Isn't that when you are SUPPOSED to WANT to get together with your family? When you need that support? When things are stressful? You gather 'round with those you love, and share the successes, the health, the happiness that IS still there? At least that's my ideal of christmas.
In better news, things are probably not really as bad as they look in print. I DO want a sympathetic ear about all this, but I'm not dying, and the sun will rise tomorrow.
