I love my new phone. I'm less enamored with it's spell check feature that keeps appearing.
Life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

"But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

RIP
I have never been across the way
Seen the desert and the birds
You cut your hair short
Like a shush to an insult
The world had been yelling
Since the day you were born
Revolting with anger
While it smiled like it was cute
That everything was shit.

Regular contractions, we're waiting and antsy. Any time now we'll be heading to the hospital.
We are what we are. Nothing more, nothing less. There is good and evil among every kind of people. It's the evil among us who rule now. -Anne Bishop, Daughter of the Blood
I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

BABY!!!! YAY!!!
We are all camping out at the hospital tonight to keep the Hubby/Daddyman company. He's on night 4, in what will be a minimum 5 night, more realistically 7-9 night stay (ouch$) for a ruptured appendix requiring the removal of about 18 inches of small intestine and some pretty intense cleaning out of the abdominal cavity.

That really sucks. We just got back home after being told it's latent labor at this point. She's 1 cm, but it's not enough to be worth them keeping us there. She's been having regular contractions for about 8 hrs now. Ugh.

My mental health has been utterly miserable lately, and it was what catalyzed my spiritual awakening. I just felt desperate for a way to express myself and give myself hope, and following a religion seemed to be a good idea.
I had built shrines just last week, and my mother found them. At first, she said that she thought I was crazy. It made me feel horrible. But I got the courage to confront her about it tonight, and it turns out it was a misunderstanding! She spent an hour just telling me about the Chinese deities and their stories, and even showed me a prayer. She was completely supportive and encouraging.
It just goes to show how often I jump to incorrect conclusions. I really need to stop doing that.

Whoa! That's a serious thing!
Is everything going according to plan?
Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.
The "light" contractions continue... I'm at work for the day, but have a back up if needed. I'm so tired. We got home around 1 ish and I had to get up at 7 for my 12 hour shift. If she actually had the baby I would have taken my leave early, but that didn't happen, so here I am. UGH

If I remembered that the bleeping payment would process in fifteen minutes then I'd have waited till tomorrow to see if I could use the card that I wanted to put it on instead of the card that I ended up using.

I feel exhausted. Found out a dear friend passed away a few days ago. He was about the same age as my parents, which isn't even old. There's been too much death close to home, this year. Stop it. universe!
