I have to admit that I fucking love starbucks. I'm not certain what it it, but there's something comforting about the fact that you can go anywhere in the country, and what you want will taste the same as anywhere else. i like that...

So I'm messing around on iTunes today, and I end up on Nirvana. In Utero is a great, great, great fucking album. I guess I had kind of forgotten about it. Just wanted to mention that. Go back and revisit it if you haven;t listened to it in a while.

By the way, I just finished reading "Origins" by Neil DeGrasse Tyson (a person hero of mine). 2 words...fan. tastic. It's essentially the story of how the universe began and became what we have here today. If you're into that sort of thing, I'd definitely pick it up. It's not as difficult to read as something like "A Brief History of Time," which I had...

Feeling pretty good. Getting back to work has helped immensely to return to normalcy. It's still tough to fill that void, but we do the best we can, right?

My daughter's hamster died today. She is unaware that the first hamster (Rhino), died a few months ago. Rhino was replaced (with Rhino 2.0), and Emery had no idea. It was kind of funny since although...

Mom is gone.

It's a relief, really. I'm tired of everyone telling me how I should feel. I'm not a crier, and everyone is worried because I'm not breaking down. Part of it is that I believe that when you have a child, you lose the right to lose it. I loved my mom more than I can express. I'm getting a little over-sympathied...if that...

I"m sorry frown

There really isn't anything I can say that can do your mom justice. Just know that she is always there with your in your memories with her. Everything she taught you, every little bit she put into making you the person you are today is her. And I'm sure she's proud of you.

I hope all goes well with the will. Take care of yourself.

So in the midst of all that's going on with mom (she's still holding on, which isn't a good thing, really), I tried the drug K2 the other day. It's supposed to be a legal, non testable marijuana substitute. The whole reason I don;t smoke pot is that I'm subject to drug tests, and if I weren't, I'd be high right now. So this stuff...

Sorry to hear about your mom. This whole parent mortality thing really sucks.

I hope that whatever time she has left is as rich and joyful as possible and that you guys get to say all the things you need to to eachother.

Good luck with everything.
theconservative:
well, that would be great, but she's ina deep coma, with feeding and iv out...so she's not saying a whole lot. i think the last thing i said to her was "how's that orange sherbet?"

Mom is in hospice care now. What it turned out to be was massive strokes caused by diabetes related blood sugar issues. She's essentially brain-dead, with about 5% brain function. We took her off the ventilator last Friday morning and she's still somehow hanging on.

The fucked up thing is how some people who don't believe that my siblings and I made the right decision...

People have no right to judge you and your family for taking her off the ventilator. I can't believe how rude people can be sometimesfrown I am sorry for everything you are going through right now. and I'm sure it's not worth much coming from someone you don't know, but I agree with your decision. It's a hard one, but imo the right one. You seem to be a very brave and strong person, sounds like your mother did a great job raising you. ♥

Thanks guys. At least it's a relief (in my opinion) that she went in a quick thing, rather than a long and wasting way.
killary:
I just caught up with your string of blogs about your Mom. I can't imagine how tough it is to deal with something like this. So I won't pretend to relate to your pain. But the fact that you can see the good in going quickly rather than wasting away shows you have a great handle on death, IMO.

I hope you're doing okay.

Mom has made huge improvement. She is going to be ok. I'm so relieved. I'm not ashamed to say that I'm quite close to my mom (as every guys should be). I have insisted that she stay with me during her recovery, rather than her douchebag boyfriend. She's agreed, so I'm happy. Thanks for all the well wishing.

By the way, as much as we...
