Real Life Update
Hey gang,
Sorry I haven't posted new fic but...
My mom was hospitalized a couple of weeks ago because she was having heart issues. (She's had mitral valve surgery, so ocassionally her ticker acts up and scares the shit out of us). Anyway, I've been trying to renovate the apartment upstairs so we can rent it out again and my man has been crazy busy too. Anyway, I had to run down the turnpike and take care of her because my idiot brother who lives 20 mins away was too "busy".
*sigh*
During that time, I did more writing in my notebook (the one that's spiral bound with real paper not my mac). Because my mom commandeered my laptop when we found out she had wifi in the cardiac unit (?!) so that she could watch the rest of "Winter Sonata". (My mom is addicted to KDramas like I'm addicted to Kpop. At least I come by it honestly right?)
So after 4 days of doc visits, tests, grocery shopping, cleaning my parents house, washing their laundry and cooking (my dad was existing on hard-boiled eggs and grits, smh), I finally called my other brother and announced that I was tapping out and that he was up next. (I also missed SM Town NY).
He arrived just in time to drive mommy home, and eat all the food I cooked.
*sigh*
Sometimes being the only girl really sucks.
I drove back to NY just in time to throw the pile of clothes my man just washed, (but refused to fold), back into the hamper and pass out on my bed.
I woke up at about 2am and realized it was my birthday.
and then...
...since I forgot to renew my license, I spent the first few hours of my birthday at the DMV waiting in line to renew it.
My man bought me flowers, but no cake, so I wandered off that evening when he was at work and bought a slice of cake, and a bottle of wine. (That made me happy). When I asked the clerk if he needed to see my ID, he waved me off like I was obviously someone's grandmother or something. (That did not make me happy).
Then that night my laptop died.
The next morning I ran out to get a rental, (because I had actual work to do) before I caught a plane to LA to hang out with my best friend. (Her birthday is 3 days before mine and I almost cancelled the trip but I was determined to go).
Somewhere over Ohio, I was in the middle of reading Death Note, when I decided to get more writing done.
That's when it hit me.
That notebook I was telling you about? That I was writing all of my fic in?
It was home. On the bed. Apparently under the cat. (I wish he could write the next chapter).
*sigh*
So I promise when I get home tomorrow (and after I've had a drink) I will keep writing, and I will post more fic for you.
Thanks for being patient!
P.S. - I did end up relaxing and having a good time after my bday. In fact, I sang karaoke, rode a mechanical bull and even rode a ferris wheel for the very first time. (When the wheel reached the stop and got stuck there, my friend screamed like Key for about 5 mins. funniest.thing.ever.).
