I used to be entertaining. I mean, you’d come to this blog expecting a laugh or two. And I delivered. Well, *I* laughed at least.
Bam. Life got very unfunny and way too serious for my comfort zone. Not one single person in my personal circle has been acting the least bit humorous or blogpost worthy. It’s been absolutely horrendous. In fact, I’m seriously considering becoming an alcoholic or drug addict. Maybe both. I’m hoping that in a drunken or high state, I’ll have some interesting experiences to write about. NO, not really. But seriously? This blockage is getting toxic.
I want to thank all of you wonderous people for saying prayers for my Mom. She’s home from the hospital now. Although, I was much more comfortable with her being there under close observation. It was very reassuring to know that if, G-D forbid something happened in the middle of the night, she was in the right place…the hospital, where they could inject her with the right meds for whatever the problem might be. But now, with her being at home, it’s very possible that if she gets sick and cries out for help, the only response she’ll get is a snore and a fart. Kind of a worrisome situation. I guess I just to have faith in the fact that my Dad will be able to hear her through all that racket and be able to react in time.
I need a vacation. Desperately. Someplace warm, although from what I understand, the entire U.S…excluding Hawaii…has been cold and snowy due to the “Snowpacolypse” and I don’t have a passport so I may be stuck buying a sunlamp and locking myself in my bathroom. Assuming I’m not snowed in by another one of those passing storms. Sigh.
BUT. I bought my Blogher ’10 tickets. So that’s something! A little vacation to look forward to. Hanging with my friends, over there in the Big Apple. I’ve already begun thinking about what to wear. NO…not for real. Well, I might have had a passing thought about whether or not I can wear my super cool kimono shirt again. Hey, I’m allowed to have some simple and narcissistic thoughts, considering all the shit that’s going down around me in my world.
Anyway, this is a quick check-in so that my blog doesn’t feel all neglected and stuff. Because yes, my blog has feelings too.
Again, thank you so much for all your support on Twitter. Your prayers and thoughts mean so much to me.
XOXO
I actually have a lot going on but no time to write about it! I’m glad that your mom is doing better. And I can’t wait to meet you at Blogher10!!
I’m still here. Just wanted to tell you that. I’m glad your mom is back home now. And I’m glad you’re going to BlogHer. You deserve a getaway from everything. For just a little bit. Come to Oz.; )

I’m glad your mom is feeling better. Hey sometimes life is not amusing. Sometimes it sucks, but those of us who love you don’t care if you are entertaining every day or not. Sometimes, we just want to send you some cookies and a hug.
BTW: When is Blogher? I live three hours from NYC and could easily talk Hubman into my needing a getaway.

I still think you would have a great vacation down here on our sugar beaches. It’s starting to warm up nicely on the Gulf.

The role reversal thing with aging/ill parents is so strange. I was always kind of the fuck-up kid (the youngest) so being able to help my parents and have them need me now has felt really good, and also being able to reconnect with them. I They’re in Florida, a long way from me, so that has a lot to do with it. On the one hand, it’s been a relief not to be so directly responsible for them, but on the other hand, it was awful how much I worry and feel sad for them and wish they were closer. Good luck getting through it all. Wishing the best for all of you.
