(no subject)
So I get off work today to be greated with a voicemail that my father has had a heart attack. He's doing ok (ish) now, but will have to stay for several days. I'm still feeling a little knocked over. I suck at grown-up crisis situations. I just don't know how to behave around anyone over the age of twelve in the event of something terrible, even and probably especially when it's my own family (we're sort of the Southern Methodist version of wasps...we don't talk about things). I lack the proper social plugin.
Just gonna sit here and listen to the new Emmylou until I chill out a little.
Edited: I've been to see him now, and it seems like he's doing okay, though uncomfortable and seriously discouraged about the state of his health.
And hospitals still unnerve me. I don't care how new, shiny and state of the art they are.
