i should have stayed in bed today

This day turned out to be crappy right from the start. As soon as I woke up and stepped foot outside my bedroom door mom was there to tell me that my pop got a call this morning and he had to go down to the hospital to see my great uncle who was in there and not doing to well. No one knew what was wrong until my great aunt called a couple of hours ago to tell us that my uncle has a tumour in his lung and he’s on a respirator now barely able to breath. They won’t be putting him on life support and there’s nothing they can do for him since he’s 71. It hasn’t really hit me yet so I’m not sure how to feel about it all I know is that I’ve been told it doesn’t look too great for him. But I guess on the bright side for a man who’s had diabetes most of his life and has been taking heart attacks since he was 40 I guess he’s lucky to have made it this far.

So I try to take my mind off this and go out on the patio to read Ivanhoe for that test I have on Tuesday and I’m forced to watch Britney so dad can brace the sub floor and mom can mow the grass out back. As if all the noise they’re making and Britney sooking isn’t bad enough then mom goes and invites a few of her little kiddie friends over to make even more noise. So I can see that I’m not going to get any work done today.

This week is going to be hell. But I think I managed to find a dress on ebay that I might get for my cousins wedding. I asked a few people who were willing to loan me dresses they had used for prom but I’d rather not borrow one if I didn’t have to for fear of me getting drunk and spilling something over it. So thank you people if this ebay thing doesn’t work out I will be bugging you again.
