Well things are okay, though I still want to drop out of school. Not drop out exactly...just take a break. Going home this weekend was really hard. Leaving was ten times worse. I know I can't be a kid forever, but life seems to be happening far too fast. Everyone's asking what I plan to do after I graduate and I still feel like I have so much time left. Of course, realistically I know I don't. But it just doesn't seem real right now.
Then again, that's part of the reason I got a cat. I know I can't go home with her, my brother being allergic and all. So I knew when I got her that she was sort of...a reminder that I've got to get my own life.
My dad is doing well. His procedure took less time than everyone thought and he's recovering well. He's able to move around with less pain than before. My mom's hoping that he'll be able to come home tomorrow. He'll still have the catheter in for another 3-6 weeks, but at least he'll be home. He was awake and alert both times I went to visit and was very happy to get my Red Lobster leftovers. Note to self: hospital food = death.
Despite the good news, though, it's still scary. No one is sure whether or not he'll really be that mobile again. Even though he's walking easier, he's still in a lot of pain. I don't know. I guess we'll find out in a few weeks.

Great to hear that your dad is getting better, and I hope it keeps getting better. By the way what is a rivetheads?? I really have know idea of what you mean. And remember that this is October, and its the bloodly best time of year ever. Bands of the month are: Misfits, King Diamond(those two are total fucking horror show!) and Twisted Mother Fucking Sister!!!
