The last couple of days have been difficult for me depression-wise. It’s been a bit crippling. Reading a bunch of crap on the internet that has bugged the crap out of me didn’t help in the least either.
For a while, I was back thinking, fuck this, I am going to delete my account, delete everything, that’ll teach them. Who exactly will it hurt? Me.
A co-worker’s 16 year old nephew died of cancer. Just an innocent boy with hopes and dreams that will never ever have a chance of coming true.
My little tantrum over internet assholes seems pretty insignificant in the face of that.
I wonder, though, why some boy who has a 4.0 grade point average and likes to play video games, doesn’t get to make it past 16 but monsters like Charles Manson linger forever.
I saw Beauty and the Beast this week and quite liked it.
I don’t know what we will see next week but I am sure it will be something.
I finished my Big Bang T’hy’la story yesterday and sent it off to a BETA reader. I don’t really use BETA readers anymore (I used to) but this was a requirement of the challenge so I did. I really like what I wrote and when it finally gets posted in June, I hope you will too.
I don’t know what to post next. I think next on my spreadsheet is Me When I was Young but I am kind of wanting to write the next chapter of You are the Light. It may not get done or posted until Monday though. We will see.
Edited to add: I posted the chapter of Me When I was Young. Just one more to go on this story. I’m ready to conclude it.
In the latest fiasco that is my game playing, for an online game I play on my computer, last Friday, I went to buy diamonds and egg shards (don’t ask, it’s for their spring quest). I decided to buy the most expensive package they were offering that day because I had just gotten paid. Then as I was paying through PAYPAL, it didn’t look like it went through, so I hit it again. You guessed it. I got charged twice, because indeed it did go through. I did get twice the stuff for it but since I had chosen the most expensive package you can imagine I was not pleased. I felt like a complete and utter fool.
I confessed my error last night to the SO. It went okay, considering. But there was some talk of blocking my game. Humph.
My friend, Soup, sent me a picture comparing Chris’ latest bald look (makes face) to Charlie Brown. Hilarious.
I will have a Flash Fic up tomorrow. It’s a little sinister.

I love the stream of consciousness thing.
It’s terribly sad news. My thoughts go out to the family.
Heh. That pic cracks me up.
I adore the big band story and I can’t wait to see it out in the world!!

Sorry to hear the last several days have not been kind to you my friend. If I could do something to help I would. (((hug))) My thoughts on your co-workers son touch my heart, one of my close friends lost his son two years ago to Cancer.. his son was only five years old. Life does not seem fair at times …
Good to hear you have finished your Big Bang T’hy’la. I have never used a BETA reader, mainly because I don’t like the idea of handing my work to someone to touch. The closest thing I have come to a reader is hashing out ideas with Lee over one of my characters in my Marvel fic. He leaves my Spirk alone… smart man.
I use PayPal mainly for my teacher shops and online shopping, I had a similar occurrence as the one you mentioned when I was upgrading my membership at the teacher site.
Soup had the right idea alright, I was thinking the same thing like night when I was on Tumblr. I did a photo edit of Chris wearing a Charlie Brown t-shirt and emailed it to you. Hope it brings a smile to your face today.

I’m sorry you were feeling like that ☹ big hugs!
And yeah, it sucks so much when you see kids that should have long lives ahead of them diagnosed with cancers. I just saw a news article a few days ago about a little boy who’d grown his hair out in order to donate it to people with cancer and ended up with a cancer diagnosis himself sadly. I’m sorry about your co-worker’s nephew
Cannot wait for big bang story! I have to wait until June though ☹
Sorry about your double charge with the game. Hopefully SO won’t block it.
Oh Chris and his hair. ‘shakes head’ At least he doesn’t have that horrid beard too
