As for the son, it isn't getting better, and I'm not sure it will anytime soon. I think that we'll be taking him back to at least one of his former facilities and probably before February. That is, if we don't just cut him loose outright, which was once unthinkable but is now an option.

I'm so sorry Thomas. Hope it works out for the best.

JFC. That is awful and must be heart-wrenching. I am so sorry.

I took the day off from work so I could finally finish something that's been weighing me down for months, and I didn't finish it.

Life could be graat, instead it's mediocre.

So sorry to hear about both of these, T, the son in particular. I'm sure there's no way it can be easy, but I hope you can find some peace, regardless of what happens.

That sucks, dude. Here's hoping you land on your feet.

You can come be my personal chef. The pay sucks, but there are tons of college girls in town, and the accommodations are free.

Seems that I caught the flu - had a 102 temp all of Tuesday and haven't gotten out of bed much the past 2 days. Feels like I've got an elephant sitting on me.


Ugh. Weak. I hope you kick it quickly. If it's anything like the strain going around up here, it's a bad one.

You know something: they have, but that's just how things work sometimes. No one has a hassle-free life, sometimes the yoke of stress comes onto our shoulders and makes us work twice as hard just to get through the day. Eventually, this too will pass. Guys, thanks for the kind words, and thanks especially for reaching out and offering support. We all continue the fight for another day, and if we prevail then it was worth it. If we don't prevail, we try again tomorrow. After all, it certainly wasn't over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

Forgot my water bottle at home again. I'm forced to drink water out of a thermal mug, which holds less liquid and requires more trips for refills.

I ate pizza for lunch. I dont know what it is about humans that makes them know that something is wrong for them, yet still do it.

Between the cheeze and the redsauce I am in for some pain this afternoon. and I had been doing so good, and maybe even losing a few lbs.....my BH pain was almost gone, but last night I was up with acid, and then pizza today. I might have well just smoked crack, it would have been better for me.

There are apparently a few different ones going around down here. Doctor prescribed me TamiFlu. Even with my insurance, which is pretty decent considering, its $100. Looks like I'll have to wait it out.

A boy I vaguely know posted a video on facebook of him singing and dancing along to a Justin Bieber song and dedicated it to his girl friend, whose name is charmander. Its about the most pathetic thing I've seen I think.
