ah lion, you didn't piss me off, i've been in and out of the hospitals, and seen it done, sometimes to me. We went almost 19 years without knowing what was exactly wrong with me, and they did this little simple, but expensive, test that confirmed their original ideas. Why did any of my doctors not come forward and present this idea earlier, i don't know. Honestly in a way, it was better not knowing.
I'm just lucky that I have double insurance through my mom and dad, otherwise we would be in major debt. eh, i complain about them, but i love them for being there. I sometimes want to move out, but I know that I wouldn't be able to afford it right now.

I know, Lion; some days I wonder how I get anything done, too.
Now, you know I don't agree with some of the things in your post, but I don't understand how any democratic republic can allow such a low standard of living for any of their citizens.

Didn't see Haley today, will give her the post tomorrow.

Art eh? I love art, art would be my life if I could do it consistently. Speaking of which, I had to help out in the basement cleaning of my old house, and by helping I mean me down there alone throwing out heaps of garbage.
So anyway, I'd forgotten I used to do a lot of sketching and whatnot, and found this massive plastic box full of all my old artwork from high school and holy crap is it good. I wonder what happened? I can still draw okay, I think when I get time I'll gather them all together and put them up on Deviantart.com, that's the best website, even better than Gaia to waste time on.
Anywho, kinda ticked off, half my D&D group can't make it tonight, and the other half didn't reply to my correspondence. I hate that, DOES NO ONE CHECK THEIR EMAILS?! Only one of my friends did. Ah well, maybe if my buddy Gerry is feeing up to it him and I will gather around the tube and kick each other's asses in Brawl.
Hey Muse, post your email address again I can't find it in the back pages!

Well, I woke up today with my throat sore on the right side and my right ear hurting as well. Since I'm sick I may have time for more art. Which will be awesome. Don't ask for avi requests cause then you won't get one. biggrin

Sorry I vanished again. I got into a funk where I didn't really want to be online much. I might not be online for a little while longer, I'm going to be completely rearranging my room, which means moving my computer, which means until I get things set back up, I'll have no computer for a few days.
The reason I am rearranging my room is so that I can get rid of a lot of crap, and so I can convert my old toy chest into a sort of miniature garden... And have a place to put it. Plus, I need to move my rabbit cage, she's not in a good place right now.
But yeah, the faster I can get this done, the faster I can get my internet back, and set up my miniature garden. Which also means the faster I can get back to my writing. Which I've also been in a funk about. I plan on writing more of Maroque when I'm done with my room.
Oh, and Drew, love the avatar! What do you think of my goth Mad Hatter? My orphans are his Tea-Team, haha. Too bad I can't wear them all, I have 13.

Man, I love this months items! They went through a lot of crap items but waiting sure paid off ^_^.
I woke up this morning, went to the bathroom, came back to sit at my workshop and suddenly I got this striking pain in my back right beneath my ribs. It was pretty bad, not so much now thank goodness. It was madness, not spartan, christ it hurt. Ah well, nothing like a little/lot of pain to wake to in the morning to confirm you're really awake, haha.
So I went to see my crippled and useless grandfather yesterday. That was a test of wills... Makes me really appreciate my unyielding hatred towards healthcare workers. My grandfather, for those who don't know, is 87 years old in the past 9 years has suffered 3 strokes and 4 heart attacks, and yes, he's still alive... not that I want him to be.
I had to go see him yesterday because my idiot mother got a call from Beth, some retard nurse who thought he was having breathing problems. So I had to go and check it out because she's too f*cking lazy to do it herself. Now, let me lay down right now that I don't hate my grandfather in anyway. He literally was my father, since mine died when I was 5. He was my idol, he could literally do anything, it amazed the hell out of me. Now he's just a barely awake lump of rotting flesh, he has no dexterity in his good hand, the right hand, he can't speak more than a word and every time someone, ANYONE, enters his room they ask him how he's feeling like he's going to sit up and engage them in comfortable conversation.
I snapped on one of the helper women yesterday, it was like the 4th time she'd asked him and I couldn't take it anymore. It just kills me to see him in there because every time he looks at me we're both thinking the same thing, why isn't he dead yet? I know he wants to die, he can't even sit up in bed and everyone and their mothers seem to think he's going to get better. Well I don't know anyone whose lived passed TWO strokes! If you could see him you'd cry, I do every time I get home after seeing him.
My retard of a mother seems to think that sending him to the hospital is going to make a world of difference. She has power of attorney which means he'll stay alive along as she wants or until the doctors can't fit anymore machines to his decaying, sagging, near lifeless body. I wish someone would have the decency to let the poor b*****d die. If I could I'd do it in a heart ******** I hate stupid people.
the Lion

Some people's grief is the most selfish thing in the world, because they don't want to let go, and they can't imagine going through the pain of losing someone... Its not a kind thing to the person who is going through the dieing, especially if the grieving are keeping them alive when all they want is to die already... Its a sad thing, and its unfair, but some people are too selfish to look at it through the eyes of someone going through it and make the right choice... Or, they think what they are doing is the right choice, in their own way they think what they are doing is kind and helpful... And in their own way, they don't see any wrong being committed except that the person is dieing in the first place.
I know its a terrible thing, they did the same to my great grandmother, who was 92, senile, and in so much pain by the time she finally kicked it... Because my grandmother, her daughter, couldn't let go, and wouldn't let her die. Because she had the power to keep her alive, though why I don't understand fully, because letting her die would have been the kindest thing she'd have been able to do in the first place. Life on a machine is no life at all, and there's no coming back from it when you're that old. And when she finally died, after all the pain she'd been through, all the thinking I was my mother because her mind had reversed time, all the not recognizing anyone... I was glad when she died, I was so happy she was finally at peace, that she finally was free of the pain and suffering that my selfish grandmother put her through because she wasn't ready to lose her...
But I don't blame my grandmother, I understand grief and the unwillingness to let someone go. I may not be as selfish, but I can see things from her perspective, it was her mother, and by her own reasoning, she was doing what she felt to be the right thing. That's all anyone can do, what they think is the right thing, by whatever reasoning. So while you may not agree with your "retarded mother's" course of action, she really is trying to do what her own conscience believes to be right. And you really can't blame her for that, can you? Because while it is selfish, that's not the only layer to it, when you boil it down.
