Thanks to those of you that sent well-wishes for my mom's surgery the other day. Everything went fine, I visited her tonight and she seems to be doing as well as she can be stuck in a hospital bed on a clear liquid diet (Yeah, kinda makes you go "ulgh" just thinking about it, right?). They should be letting her out on Friday. Dad joked that they better, because if they try to release her on Saturday he's not coming for her, because he'd miss a big football game. My parents, ladies and gentlemen.
I don't know if it was the worrying and trying not to worry or what, but I didn't get a lot of sleep last night. Then I didn't get off of work until almost five, at which point we went to the hospital to visit Mom. Now looking at the computer screen is kind of making me feel physically ill, and I'm pretty exhausted, so I'm probably just going to go to bed right after SGU.
Which means I'm not going to get to pimping the Drabblethon until tomorrow, which makes me upset since that removes another day for getting the word out, but well. In the mindset I'm in right now I'd probably bork my HTML or something. (Also, I just spelled "upset" wrong.) I'd rather make sure I do it right than not at all.
In the meantime, if you guys could keep doing what you can to help spread the word though, I'd continue to appreciate it. Even if you're not planning on participating, if you mention it in your journals maybe someone else on your flist would?
