So my mother is on oxygen now. I had initially planned to come to Ecuador for Christmas and spend it with her, but now I'll be going next week.

I'm going to see my mother for what will likely be the last time of my life.

I remember the look in my mother's eyes when I showed her the green card in person. She was so happy. She said to me "We can have Christmases together again." We thought we had time.

There won't be any more Christmases.

My aunt died last month. In one sweep, this year has taken the two people who were basically mothers to me.

Fuck 2016.

I'm so sorry.

It's a shitty week for this stuff. I'm just hours (hopefully) from release from the hospital and I got notification that my grandmother was being rushed in (...on the opposite side of the country...) due to a heart attack.

2016 can go die in a fire, for real.

That hate in my world still sits with Witchcraft and Wizardry (seriously why require people set whether or not they would allow their char to be rostered if you're just gonna ignore it anyway?!).

I was so fucking weirded out when I saw an old character of mine being played by someone else there. Not cool.

Yuuuuup. When I asked about it (as my 'last will' thing had been set to have the char fade out / be used as an NPC), I was told how 'Well, I decided it'd be better if she continued to be played.'

So, really. Until someone tops that BS, I'm cool with whatever. Even re-opening an old game for private play.

As someone who played on Fifth World until the end...

I'm sorta put out, I guess, if it's being revived in a private sense? But that'll only go beyond "oh... meh" if I find out any of my chars are being utilized. Which, I'd hope people don't do. That hate in my world still sits with Witchcraft and Wizardry (seriously why require people set whether or not they would allow their char to be rostered if you're just gonna ignore it anyway?!).

But you're playing Dumbledore on what is clearly a Gandalf thread.

GAWD.

WRONG WIZARDS, @Ghost

Provided my doc hasn't changed his mind... I'm being released today! Yay!

Now... do I crawl into my own damn bed or the shower first when I get home?

@tek said in RL Anger:

A friend of mine died over a year ago. Her parents (?) still log in as her occasionally and "like" things on Facebook. This needs to fucking stop.

That is hella fucked up.

I can see not wanting to block the page, as suggested, but it may be needed.

I have too much shit to do. Work. School. Planning for that trip. Just generally being awesome.

I do not have the time (nor want, obvs) to be in the hospital for 2-3 days for a fucking bowel obstruction.

Now I just pray that it is only 2-3 days and I don't need surgery.

@ThugHeaven said in Good TV:

Luke Cage is pretty damned good. Three episodes in and I'm really enjoying it.

I'm 4 episodes in and it might be my favorite of the Marvel shows now.

Last night I tried on my first pair of Lularoe leggings. They had previously been described by numerous people and advertising as "buttery soft". I was skeptical.

Oh my god, these things were like a comfy hug for my legs.

EXACTLY.
I was skeptical too. Now I'm like 'LEGGINGS NEED ALL OF THEM OH GOD THE COMFORT'

I'll be totally honest.

... I expected https://vimeo.com/3554226. And I had a moment of '...how is that pop? or chill?!'

Likewise. Though I was thinking this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PwpcUawjK0

That is up there with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aGTNS13SDU for my favorite 'fan videos.' (Totally NSFW btw)

I keep Pub off, too.

Grayson chan has been nothing but Awesome.

@WTFE

This reminds me that I have a full 'deck' of near-pristine (only 1 has a bit of bend to it) PBR caps.

And no, I did not drink that much PBR. I just had a few bartender friends who were willing to set any/all caps aside for me.

Can't +1 that, Insomnia. Just having to note... yeah. Facebook ghosts.

I tell myself it'd be easier if I removed them from my friend list, but I just can't bring myself to do it.

My father does not have anything other than a manly voice, but he once had a telemarketer ask 'Can I speak to your father?'

So he answered, 'Sorry, my father isn't here.' and hung up. Had a good laugh over it.

More a mope, but...

Didn't make it to the next stage of the interview process.
Had really high hopes for that job, too.

I've been avoiding The Strain because I really liked the initial book and I've feared what a show would be like.

This Is Us has been on my list since I saw the trailer months ago. Mind, I don't have any live TV, so I gotta wait.

I'll probably watch The Good Place. Or at least try. I Bell.

Srsly. Watch it.

I just wanna say that there are 14 characters currently on the roster.

I'd really, really love to see Alex (older char, law enforcement, lieutenant), Sublett (younger char, law enforcement), Carlotta (corp elite, fashion designer, PC husband and daughter actively played), and Jenna (corp elite, VP, super awesome) played.

The game is active, plenty going on. I'm having a ball.
