We few...we band of buggered
Apr. 23rd, 2004 01:21 amI'm speaking of the five people on my friends list who didn't think Ats 5.18 was the cat's pajamas and were just a little disturbed by the message at the end. I think it's five, may be less. Not sure.
Sigh. Bad day. Very bad day. Getting worse. It's past one and I should sleep, instead I keep writing and deleting posts.
Got some bad news tonight about my sister-in-law who just had the baby. She's in dreadful pain. Slipped disc and severe back contusion from her labor, which have made it impossible for her to care for her new baby. I'm terribly worried about her.
She's such a sweet person and so does not deserve this. And there's nothing I can do to help. My brother is keeping everyone but close friends away at this point - due to her fragile emotional state. (Her mother is not helping her, they had to throw her out). The whole situation makes me cry.
All my other problems, of which there are many, seem silly in comparison. There is nothing worse than wanting to help and being unable to.

Date: 2004-04-26 02:48 pm (UTC)They start with:
"FRESNE: This was an instance of an episode I may enjoy a bit better in the analysis than in the moment.
For all that I enjoyed the new happy Connor, I couldn't help but feel that it was a happiness purchased with everyone else’s fractured dissolution.
And, as I analyze it, it comes to greater focus, that my issue is that I personally have issues with anything to do with the theft of mind. Of anything, my knowledge and experiences and how they have shaped me are uniquely mine. So, an episode resolution that tacitly says that Angel made the right choice, cuz look see, it made life bearable and it’s okay to do anything for family makes me feel…well, I didn’t sigh with the happy pleasure that seems to be gusting about."
And end with my last message/post. Not sure what to title the whole thing as? Any ideas? (I'm blanking on titles at the moment.)
Let me know. I won't post it until I hear back from you.
