I went to visit my grandma in the hospital today. things are a little more serious than we had thought. her stomach is actually twisted and raised, and the ulcer (or hernia?) is much larger than originally thought. she is very cute, though. I was with her for about an hour, she she probably told me she was having fun about ten times.

I got my 85-year-old grandmother drunk for Thanksgiving '04. I say go ahead & show up with the dye. We grandkids are duty-bound to spoil our grandparents. 
I guess it's over.

Ya gotta love the power of Foo. 
let me first say that this is a very personal post. I have my own reasons for not putting it under a filter. I'm not going to ask you to filter your comments; I'm just alerting you.

Well, good luck with all that. Just remind him that Pete and & I are always here for him.

That is alot to handle. Bleh. I am sorry you have to go through this. I have been there. I think that you should very much do exactally what you say & set up boundries of your own, like you are. I think addiction ruins a relationship & I have had many relationships with users. I now have a rule that I won't date anyone who uses at all. It is just too hard.
And, what did you miss? My last post was the only thing I posted about the neighbors, if that is what you meant. It is just that the boyfriend is always saying that illnesses are just excuses for not dealing with life & that I am fine. I have dealt with assholes like that before with being sick. Have you? I was hoping I wasn't the only one to come across such ignorant shitheads.
I am Buddhist too! Yay!!! It really is a peaceful way for me.

when we blog, who is it we write for? what do we expect in return?
despite the fact that I have always admired the strong, silent type, I've also been both a prolific writer and verbally voracious. but just who is my audience as I create these near-daily announcements to the world?

I very VERY often have to remind myself that my journal (aka "blog" -- what an icky word) is really for me and no one else, despite the fact that it often invites comments from my dear Readers and friends. I've kept private, handwritten journals since I was 8 but the online blogging has been both liberating and, well, scary. At what point does anonymity really begin and end when you start meeting your cyber readers and developing live, "in person" relationships with them. Are they good enough friends at that point that you can share with them as openly in person as you could on line? I dunno......just more shit to ponder, I guess.
(BTW, I also recommend going to the health food store and getting acidopholus capsules to supplement the yogurt. It really does speed up the recuperative process.)

i find the concept of writing a public, online journal (i agree with the above statement..."blog" is an icky word...) somewhat contradictory. i mean, a journal it technically an acount of your daily life...a summary of the day's events and your corresponding feelings, if you will. however, the public aspect of an online blog can completely change the intrinsic nature of a journal. i mean, how many people will actively censor what they write in their journal as an active measure to ensure that certain people don't see certain things? or on the contrary, how many people out there will fantasise events and overexaggerate various details with a view to trying to impress the ubiquitous intended/expected audience? very few people can write 100% candidly in an online journal (your good self being about the closest I've ever seen to achieving that level of litarary intimacy), which kind of suggests that a "blog" and a journal are two completely different things.
this was intended to come across as being far more meaningful than it actually is. sorry...

marry is indeed a funny word. maybe because it's so much like 'merry'?
marry merry cherry cheery ...all foreign concepts . except for cherry. cherries are delicious.
maybe 'marriage'. but marriage = contractual agreement = until death = death. ahh!

Yeah, I mean, like, I am sitting here typing this & feeling on edge like any minute I am either going to get sick or something else bad is going to happen. This is how I am all the time since I first got sick. I am constantely in fear like that & I need to be ok with things being ok too. How to do it though, I just don't know.
so much progress went down this weekend.
so much. on everyone's part.
I typed this two page letter to my parents that was basically about they fit into my struggle with regaining independence. my mom and my beau sat down and had a good talk about their dysfunction, and while they were talking my mom was already more respectful of me.

I am happy that your heart is healthy. Doctor's offices can be scary. Good thing you had your knitting.

I just really want to look in someone's ears with that ear thingy, but I am usually alone at doc appts. One time I was with my son & he was too scared to get caught playin' with the stuff... I mean, what are they really going to do anyway if we did get caught? LOL!
And YAY for your heart!!!
