Hello non-existent followers. At least I can pretend someone is reading this.
Let's call you B. Good solid letter.
Hi B;
This was supposed to be an introductory type post where I tell you about myself (how very narcissistic of me). However, today I found out a very close friend of mine's father was in a motorcycle accident this past weekend. He's on life support, with little to no brain function. :( He's such a nice, sweet, decent man. And hilarious. He doesn't deserve this. No one deserves this. Okay, well, some people. But basically no one.
I said to Mike today, wow, I can't even imagine what he's going through. Mike looked at me funny, and I thought, oh wait, yes I can. And you know what? It's hell. I don't wish that on anyone, to have to sit there and look at that person you love and wonder, are they ever going to look at me again? Will they ever know who I am again?
And you know what else? Nothing anyone says can make a damn difference.
I'm a coper (cope-er?); I deal with things well, I make decisions, I stick to them, I follow through. I'm stubborn and tenacious, which I guess makes me an ideal girlfriend for Mike in the situation he went through in March being incoherent for nine days. (Again with the narcissism!! I'm normally not self-centered.. At least not too much).
I coped, I dealt, I told people off who were being over emotional or hard to deal with, I organized insurance and who was taking care of our house and our animals; and I waited for my boyfriend to come back to me. Because he was going coming back to me. Or I'd go wherever he was and drag him back.
.. Hmm.. Kind of went off on a tangent.
Point being I guess, I hope my friend stays strong, uses the support he has around him and most of all, I hope his Dad will be alright.
If you believe in prayer, please pray for J's Dad, if you don't, please just hope for him.
Today, not feeling the sunshine and lollipops.
Alex
