How are you feeling right now?

Looking at an extreme-ad site and weeping with laughter.

QFT. 

You want this shit? You bet your white ass you do!

[Phlexor]

odd.

she texted me. my very first fear, and the first one to be dismissed, was true: she had found some other guy.

Sorry to hear that dude. My first GF found another guy too, 6 months before she broke up with me.

It sounded like it could well be this but suggesting it sounded a little conspiracy theorist and pessimist in the extreme. In the event that I was wrong I did not want to have been the one suggesting it was likely. That sucks balls mate and I am so sorry.

That sucks.

How long ago did she find him?

['andersom']

heavy head, heading for a headache, and a bit nauseous, because of enforced lack of sleep.

[earthboundmisfit]

Worried about the girl.

How long ago did she find him?

dunno. i find it strange that she seemed so interested in me untill 2 days before we stopped talking alltogether tho. chicks suck at hiding a lack of interest so i find it hard to believe she "had" him allready then... so it musta happened rather quick. which also "gets" me, cus it means she dumped me just for hornyness.
which again is completely possible, hornyness is an emotion, and emotions are very strong...

this sucks tho. long distance relationships suck, and "real" ones are simply not feasible cus chicks MAY want me untill i open my mouth and talk. when i do, i become their "weird gay friend"

sir les: i told her, that her (rather flimsy and vague) explanation made absolutely NO sense, unless she found a new guy, and that i would even prefer her to just tell me, cus at least then i KNOW its not something i did wrong. i was simply too far away to be of any use. i knew it, cus its the only thing that woulda made sense. but i also trust peoples word... too much.

^ I'm sorry to hear that Zegh. 

I'm sort of all over the place. Things with the ex keep causing me to get lost inside my head out of self preservation and now I'm back in my hometown because Gram's hip is broken again. The pin popped out when the nurses were moving her and it's not looking good. She's on 10mg of Morphine every 3 hours and it's still not taking her pain level down. She's been in immense pain, sitting there with a shattered hip for a week now and still has no surgery date booked. So I'm back in a hotel for a week to do hospital duty. My Aunt said she's been asking for me. She wants me to sing to her and I seem to be the only one who can calm her these days. Poor thing can't use a phone by herself, has been in bed for 2 weeks and we're trying to get the hospital to supply a special type of air mattress to prevent bed sores. I hate this for her.

Poor Gram of yours, and poor you.

She must be such a strong woman, being in immense pain for so long, and still not giving in.

Wishing both of you lots of strength, and the chance to calm and rest.

Other people call her strong, I call her stubborn. I feel awful for her though. She's always been so active. Never sat for long so this is so far from the norm for her and no way to live out the last years of your life.

But she is quite spiritual and religious so you may all feel free to giggle at the thought of CG sitting in the hospital for hours reading from the bible and singing her hymns. Hey, if that's what brings her a little peace, I'll do whatever I can. She's done more for me over the years than I could possibly count.

*will sing her Kumbaya just for Hyke*

['andersom']

One of my grandmothers just refused to die, and postponed death for 30 years.

Some very fond memories of her include listening to religious hymns. I find myself singing them to myself sometimes, when I need to calm down, or need to break the silence and make a place mine.

I'll hum a few for the two of you, from a distance.

One of my grandmothers held out till she got to see my second son it was all she talked about while sick

Wouldn't even think of it. During my grandmother's last days, earlier this year, I happened to be in the room when the priest came to perform The Prayer for the Sick for her. While I'm not the biggest fan of Roman Catholicism, it was a special and extraordinarily powerful moment, and I felt privileged to be there to share it.

I hope that she feels better soon and that her pain can be relieved.  Maybe they could do some sort of peripheral nerve pain block and maybe put the pin back in.

I hate this for her, too.

After my grandmother broke her hip, she had an artificial hip put in but she kept popping it back out of the socket again and again, so the doctors wound up just removing it.  She lived for several more years after this, but her mobility was pretty severely impaired.  I hope your Gram's hip stays fixed the next time.

Feeling a bit depressed. Spending a week totally alone sucks.
