Until your breathing stops forever

I'm home in Atlanta. Thank fuck. Lord willing and the crick don' rise, I will never have to back to Florida(please please please G-d). The funeral was...I gave the eulogy. When I wasnt giving the eulogy, I was livetweeting the funeral. I wish I was kidding but I'm not. If you're curious, search for #livefromthefuneral because oh my god it was just

There's so much here that I wish I could help you with, and I can't. So I'll make the one suggestion I can: dry shampoo. Seriously, discovering that shit made depression about 5 times easier to bear. I shake a can and spray my bangs and wherever else feels dirty, brush it out, and all of a sudden I look presentable. Time elapsed: 30 seconds. It's incredible how much better I feel just because my hair no longer feels greasy, it's like adding "looking like hell" just makes "feeling like hell" even more unbearable

It sounds good but honestly, I need to suffer through it because thats part of how I process - no shortcuts. You have to work your shit out. LOL it hurts and its uglier but it works. I'll get that for "You have to go be presentable" days but in general I have to work on the actual issue you know?

[hugs] I totally get it, and everyone's process is going to be different. Good luck, bb.

By the way, my brand recommendation if you do go looking is Batiste.

Your story and thoughts about your gran's fandom made me smile. There's something... hopeful and wonderful, about love like that crossing years and generations. I hope the movies will be a way to keep that love alive.

Words feel so inadequate to write...just wish to tell you I'm sorry for you loss...

I feel the same way about South Florida. My mom died there and if I never set foot there again it will be too soon.

So you missed the hurricane? I was worried for you, that on top of all the family drama, you'd be triggered by that. Glad you're home.
