BEGINNING MESSAGE
Wow, it's been a while since I did an update. A lot has happened, and, in the same token, life goes on as it always had.
First bit of good news....I JUST got my economic Stimulus check, while writing this. $300! Not much, but damn, it's $300 I didn't have ten minutes ago! I foresee most of it going into the bank, but I may just be taking Ver out to celebrate! *wink wink*
Speaking of Ver, she's been sicker then Michael Jackson on steroids lately (Oh yes, I went there). When she finally allowed herself to be talked into going to the Dr.'s, we discovered she is sick with severe bronchitis and the first stages of pneumonia. She's on some good shit for it, plus an albuterol inhaler, but she's still miserable. *hugs* Your thoughts and prayers are appreciated....thank you all that have kept her in mind, and I ask you pray for her wellbeing a bit longer.
On other news, I feel very sad. As many of you know I'm an avid reader of the online comic Ctrl-Alt-Del. It's a comic about games and gamers, focusing specifically around three roommates: Lucas, Ethan, and Liliah. Ethan and Liliah are engaged and recent humorous strips have centered around Liliah being pregnant and their struggle to plan a wedding, planning for a child, and playing every new video game released. Good stuff.
The latest comic today had no words, and was titled 'Loss'. I hesitated reading it, and once I did I wished I hadn't. Liliah miscarried.
I realize their fictional characters, and that's why I'm wondering why I feel so bad for them. I read it and almost cried....and the funny thing is, I don't exactly know why. I guess after an entire year of reading this comic, I've....grown attached to the characters, if that makes any sense.
*shrugs* Oh well. Real life is more pressing. Mom's slowly going down hill, again, and the stress is starting to affect me some. That, and I'm picking up on depression and sadness that is NOT my own....thing is, I can't place where I'm getting it from. I have a few ideas, but as of yet I've been unable to contact those people. It's quite frustrating, actually.
In other, happier news, I replayed and finally re-beat the original Kingdom Hearts, and I remember now why it's my favorite of the three (yes, I do own KH: Chain of Memories. Do I like it? No. But I have beaten it solely because it's Kingdom Hearts, damnit). I beat it on Expert, and for the first time found all the 99 Dalmatian puppies without cheating. ^_^
Not much else going on....taking care of mom, trying to help Ver feel better. In the mix I'll write a paragraph in my fanfic, which is coming along. I haven't attempted anything with Ashla Knights lately, though....just no time. I'm not complaining....just saying.
*bows* Okay, mom and I have a Food Stamps appointment we have to leave for in about twenty minutes. If anything out-of-the-ordinary occurs, I'll post another update ;p Until next time, this is Talon Sky: Your friendly neighborhood Samurai
