Waking up and immediately throwing up. Bleh. And no, I've not even been near alcohol for the past few weeks.

I know how that feels. One of the flats downstairs is being renovated. 7:30 each morning for the past couple of weeks. Annoying, but at least it won't last.

Yeah, that's my thinking. I'm just glad that when I get in from work it's about 7am and I'm tired enough to sleep through it.

Thanks, my friends. I'm hoping any positive thoughts will bring my kitty home. Today I'm flyering the neighborhood. Not a good week.

The band KYLESA had to cancel the Vancouver concert last night...major family emergency for Laura Pleasants.
Best vibs and wishes to her and her family....huge disappointment as I've been geeking out over the chance to see them awhile now!This last year definitely has my ear turned to this incredible band no ones much heard of yet. Laura Pleasants is the best metal goddess out there right now.....

my mom is having one of freakouts, picked up right where she left off last night. screaming, slamming things around, throwing shit, delusions, disowning me... she can't be reasoned with. everything i say to her is an attack and a lie. no matter how clear and calm i try to stay, i get sucked into it and that's just more fuel for her.

i guess it's just a reminder that i was always right when i refused to take any psych meds. instead of getting permafried by every SSRI under the sun, i learned how to actually control myself. i guess i'm also lucky that she wasn't like this when i was a little kid because it's scary to me NOW as an adult.

she's going back into the hospital today. i'd like think it will help her, but i know it won't because she wants to stay sick and continue being catered to. at least we'll have some peace around the house for a while.
it makes me feel like an insensitive prick to talk shit about her because we have many of the same problems, but i also feel like it gives me MORE license to talk shit because i'm not blaming everyone else and taking it out on them in catastrophic rages. i've almost had to call the cops a number of times in the past, i was about to do it today, but she chilled out at the last minute. there are few situations that can't be made worse by involving the police....

I'm really not in the position to give you any advice in this but just try not ad fuel to the flames adn keep your cool. Two people both raging at each other solves nothing.

wants to stay sick and continue being catered to

This has always fascinated me. Years ago when I got hit by a car and somehow didn't even get hurt (?), half of my had scratches on it and it was all red. I noticed that if I kept one eye closed it looked a hundred times worse. So my 14 year old needy brains thought it'd be fun to keep the eye closed one whole day at school and see what happens. Why do people do things like this? To get attention yes, but to take it even further?

fact. it's so hard to not get caught up in the bullshit but it happens.... it's good to get away and be with friends though, which is what i did tonight.


i got hit by a car on my bike earlier this year. a hit-and-run. scary shit, man. smashed my bike to pieces, but i was ok save for a couple bumps and bruises, and it sounds like you came out alright too... right?
