I wish I had money to throw at Gaia, because I would. I enjoy the torture of random items. I don't know why. >w<

..Thanks.
And it is comforting that everything was good for him up til his death.
But it sad that I'll never have the kinds of conversations I had with him again, especially with the bullshitting and wisecracks.

And not seeing him in the shop anymore is going to be a big change since I hangout there at least once a week.

But even though I'm comforted with the thought of how he went it's still bothering me. I'm having trouble sleeping by falling asleep and staying asleep.
I'm not able to focus entirely on my school work, I'm just off.

I mean he was pretty much family one way or another.
I went to school with his step-grandson up until middle school, and I've been friends with him and his daugther for 6 or 8 years.

I haven't really done any crying, but it feels like my heart is wrapped with a weighted chain thats being pulled down.

It's entirely different from how I coped with my Grandma back in 01 and how I coped with my Niece back in 05


It seems like you're a stronger person now. I don't mean to say that strong people don't cry, but you've had devastating experiences with grief that you managed to survive. Also, you were very close to your grandmother and your niece was your own flesh and blood, so it's completely understandable.

Death has a way of affecting us all - it's hard to be upbeat when a kid you never got the chance to meet at your school commits suicide, or you see something horrible on the news happen to a stranger. Let alone when it happens to someone you actually did know and love.

Take the time you need to rest and recover, buddy. I'm sure your teachers will understand.

And, a friend said to me when my grandmother died: "Just think, the dead can do whatever they want! Personally, I would eat a lot of junk food and spy on the living- maybe pull off some classic pranks. Just think of the possibilities!" When tears are dried up, there's nothing wrong with simply smiling for all the times you had. He knows you miss him. <3

Considering you're also a moderator, you're a masochist.

The 72 was ******** hard enough
But 432 would be absolutely amazing

Yeah, call me crazy, but I rather enjoy modding. rofl I've only been a mod for about 6 months now, though! So there's still plenty of time for me to become [more] jaded/bitter/cynical. :3

Christ on a cracker. The buttercream rose is 600k-ish? What the ******** is with random items being in the millions, now? Is inflation really THAT bad? Or is Gaia ******** with the percentages even more to see how much people are willing to throw at them? I'm sorry, but I have a hard time swallowing spending 100k on an item. I'm not going to shell out and shell out until I'm a millionaire. rolleyes

It's only been two days since they were released and all the items are falling pretty fast.

Maybe, donno if I'm a strong person. I think why I'm coping differently is because I had regrets with my grandma and niece.
But with my friend I don't really have any regrets because the last time I had seen him we left with good terms.
That's my theory anyways. confused

With my Grandmother the died in 01 I wasn't all that close because she didn't want us back there with her first fight with cancer.
In the later years of her life we were growing closer, but not as close as I am with my Granny.

Spring Break starts on the 6th for my college so I'll hold off for now.
School I think is the only thing keeping me sane right now, even though I don't have the motivation for homework.

I don't know why but that quote from your friend bothers me.
Which is strange because I normally don't let anything bother me.

I'm not sure I like that the guy I was obsessed with last year chooses to IM and text me when he's drunk and lonely.

...I also find it vaguely strange that we still fall so easily into conversation.


Meh. *shrug*

edit: yaaaay for a goodnight text from my boy. =) =) =)

I wonder how long it would take to learn the entire Mario Galaxy soundtrack? Hrm... I could try to earn a reputation as the "Mario Galaxy" girl...


@Tom - I'm sure at a glance it looks like he was taking death lightly and being disrespectful...

I don't see it that way, though. Personally, he made me smile, because I know he was trying to make me feel better by saying that my grandma was in a better place. He responds to a lot of my problems by joking, and I like that instead of pulling me up, he sits at the bottom with me, brings me a beer (figuratively), and waits with me until I find the strength to pull MYSELF up. Sometimes I need that.

Oh, I'm sorry for "accidentally" locking you out today when I left early for work. Guess you shouldn't have left your keys inside when you walked out the door, huh? Wait, no, I take that back. Guess you shouldn't have ******** been here in the first place since your girlfriend wasn't even home, huh?
Sorry you had to climb in through my window since you didn't have any other way back into the apartment after I left and didn't answer my phone. You can be sure, next time I won't leave my window open. C'mon, just think of it as a challenge - or an endurance test! ...though granted, you probably won't ever leave without your keys again, and I think there's a spare key stashed outside somewhere, now. Oh well, push me hard enough and maybe next time I'll hide that, too. ******** do not pay rent here. Your name is not on the lease. You're not the one that gets a post-it note with a total of how much they owe for bills stuck on their door each month. You don't get left with the dog every weekend that she's gone. You're just a close-minded, immature jackass who can't even be civil to his girlfriend's best friend when she comes for a visit, but unfortunately one who just happened to be conveniently nearby when said girlfriend dumped her fiance this past summer. I want nothing to do with you and I cannot wait until the day where you don't live in the same city.

They're falling, yeah. But prices in general seem to be getting higher. The genie dolls got as low as 1k for some. I think the lowest price for Famestar dolls was 30k-ish. And the damned Adriana doll was 300k even after they'd been out for weeks. Argh.

Have any of you guys ever had someone you don't know holding a huge piece of meat-on-bone come over to where you sit at lunch, stare at you, rip a chunk of meat off with their teeth, and just WALK AWAY?

That was the most hilarious and oddest thing I have ever witnessed IN MY LIFE.
