what i wrote in my last post remains true. but i found a letter my brother wrote me 10 years ago and there was something he said that has stuck with me, like the meat and potatoes to the ribs of my coping with this:
"we must be uncommonly strong to be uncommon people."- jjr.
i cry nightly. this wound is still so, so fresh...

my brother died.
he was like a stranger i was really really close to because he was in and out of my life a lot. he was an adult when i was born. but he was my brother and i love him and now he's gone.

and i went to see a neurologist this morning, hungover. i've been having numbness that comes and goes that the doc thinks is due to migranes that dont come at the same time at the numbness. we're putting a request in with my insurance for an mri to rule out other things.
also, my grandmother died around 5am.

I'm so sorry. My grandma died last fall, and I was closer to her than to anyone else in my family.

thanks for letting us know!
pixieprincessa:
you're welcome.
due to unprecedented levels of douchebaggery, my cousin's friend's sister has my blackberry.
bigpoppa99:
how did you manage that?
pixieprincessa:
i didnt manage shit. he took it from my bag (or right next to my bag, not positive) when we were at a bar last wednesday. i called my cousin when i got home and realized i didnt have it and he said oh yeah, my friend said he found a blackberry. and i said his friend should work on getting it the fuck back to me. my cousin told him who it belongs to and the friend sold it to his sister. so he has to buy it back from her and give it to my cousin who'll get it back to me.
problem is, despite selling a blackberry pearl, he still doesnt have minutes on his phone so my cousin's having issues tracking him down.
i'm gonna get the serial number for the bb from at&t and my detective friend (an actual nypd detecive) will try to track it (and him) down.
