Brief slowatus/hiatus, not sure which... >.> (let's call it a slowatus *optimist*)

It's been a very bad week...

Besides being pretty sick, my only grandparent passed away. I'm going to be taking a flight out tomorrow to Arizona to go to her funeral. Needless to say, although I will take a laptop with me (addict that I am), I won't be likely to be able to rp much if at all. It's a very short trip though so I'll be back in a few days. Wish me very safe smooth flights, I also have a crippling fear of flying.  ... making this a profoundly stressful weekend... *clings to poly*

Thank you. <3

I'm so sorry for you and your family--absolutely, I hope that the flights are utterly without turbulence and very short. You don't need more worries on top of worries. Please take care.

omgthankyousomuch. I need all the good airplane wishes I can get. *superstitious*

And will do. It's only a few days... just got to get thru it and things can go back to relative normality. Thank you <3

Hugs forever...I hope you'll be okay. And I'm sorry about your grandma--I can only imagine how hard that is.

Thankyou <3 I greatly appreciate it. It's a strange thing, going thru losing someone like this (never lost anyone before, really). I'm finding that my brain is having immense issues with not being able to focus. But things will get better given a bit of time. Thanks again <3

My condolences to you and yours. It sounds like an amazingly overwhelming set of events to come together like this. Wishing you the best, and please let us know if there's anything we can help you with.

I've been also stressing over getting ready to go back to school for a new degree that might actually be useful this time. And my cat who has been acting odd. The vet on a side note said "This lump on her back" (which had been because of saline put in there to rehydrate her when she was very sick) "it hasn't gone down yet. You know, we should do tests on it. It might develop into CANCER."

Gotta love the people that want to jump to worst case scenarios first thing. I had a vet tell me my indoor only cat should get a rabies vaccine because a bat might get into my house, and it might have rabies, and that cat's are curious things so she will get bitten trying to play with it. (In my entire life, I've never had a bat get into my house. I kind of feel I have as much chance of getting eaten by a Mountain Lion on my way from my car into work. (No, really. We do have those here and one MIGHT wander into town...)

Also lovely bit of info: both airports I'm flying from and to, have the new full naked body xray machines in security. With my recent luck....

Oh, also, I lost my voice. Part of my fun illness. /rant (You can tell I haven't had breakfast.)

Anyway, thank you very much for the show of support. I do greatly appreciate the comments. I'm sure everything will turn out okay. Just got to get thru the next few days. o7

I'm so sorry for your loss, hon. *hugs*

Thanks <333

I don't really know you, but I'd like to offer my condolences too. I lost my only real grandparent about a month ago. I was doing pretty well at hiding my grief until I flew back home after four months and my mom handed me her pillow.

It's hard. It's really hard, and it's hard to talk about it, but sometimes you feel better afterward. So when you're done being sick and me, too if you'd just like someone to talk at, I'm here.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you so much. I'm sorry about your grandparent too. (And your being sick.) Thank you for the offer to talk. I'll keep it in mind. <3

I'm so sorry to hear. I hope the flight goes okay <3333

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Sorry for the late reply. Been dealing with stuff. The funeral was very moving and sad but as touching as a funeral should or can be. They played a wonderful slideshow of her life, and I got her copy of it to take home with me. My brother might have given me a copy previously as he did that for all the relatives, but for the life of me I don't know where it could be if I did get one.

Now for the unnerving part of flying back home. Hopefully this well wish for a good flight will apply to this one.

And then in about 2 weeks I get to do the flying again, another 2 times... ugh.

WHEN... I get home. I'm going to climb into bed and SLEEP. So very very very past the point of exhaustion. Then when I wake up... I do believe I have some posts to make. >.>

/rambling

Anyway, thanks again. <3
