One Year, One Day

In fairy tales, that's how long things take. A year and a day. It's a magical interval with the power to sever or reunite, to curse or to forgive. And the real world just doesn't work like that. Not even a little

I've posted some clumsy, frustrated things this morning to a highly filtered group. Some of the time I was actually trying to talk about this. Thank you for saying it better than I. I might try again later.

Hi, I just added you. I really like your posts, especially your recent one on being PC.

{internet hugs} seem so lame - but they are all I have to give. :(

If I were there in person though, I would offer you some chocolate cookies then a nice walk in some comfortably warm weather. We would walk at your pace - letting you rant or rave as you see fit. The bright blue sky would help melt your sorrows and worries for a little while.

I have to admit, I was never a great fan of Heath Ledger's.

But, several times in my life, I have been in pain, depressed, and totally unable to sleep. I have done scary things with medications in order to get that sleep. So I understand how he was feeling, and how the tragic accident that led to his death happened.

There are people in this world who don't understand, who've never had the pain/depression/insomnia combo, and think he got what he deserved. I envy the cause of their ignorance, and then I want to smash in their faces.

Yeah, that's about the size of it.

It's still unpleasantly near, yes. I mean, I know my sense of time is bad, very bad, but . . . it feels like a few months. Not a year.
