I quit
I am not reading any more e-mails today. I first check Facebook and find that a friend's mother passed away*. So I get off Facebook, shed some tears, and log on to check my regular mail. To find a friend was just diagnosed with breast cancer**. I'm not reading any more emails today.
* For those who remember, it was Horatio Merriweather's mother, and it's a blessing that she's no longer in pain.
** No name to be provided from me.
My reaction - go pull weeds. Scott kept an eye on me through the living room window, but he was a bit scared to come outside. The weeds are suitably cowed as I took most of my anger at life on them. I wallowed in the stage of questioning the gods and their choices - but I stopped before I started challenging them and their decisions. I'm not stupid, just pissed off.
