Totally not looking forward to tomorrow at all

[Naylzie]

Tomorrow?  It won't be Monday quite yet, what's tomorrow? 

[luna]

Tomorrow is a gathering that we are having for my grandpa that died in march. My mother who I haven't had contact with in almost 15 years is insisting on going despite being asked not to.

My brother, his wife and my nephew are going to find the entire situation particularly awkward since she has never met either members of his family and they don't consider her to be "grandma"

*sigh*

[Naylzie]

Oi vey, I don't envy you that @.@  *hugs*  Here's hoping it's as uneventful as it can be, all things considered!

[luna]

Thanks

Updates/ranting to follow...

[TPD]

sigh to the mother fucking eye-cools.
prolly should do something about this.
ah well...

[kristin]

Thanks! I'll keep you guys updated.

Rant: I'm pissed about the weather up here. Very cold. Brrr.

[TPD]

same here! and rainy! wtf it's may...

if this was van i wouldn't complain... because it'd be fucking van.

I just hope we don't have a cold, wet summer like we did in 2009. Right after the school year ended that year I went down to Aruba with some friends and I came back on the 4th of july and it was LITERALLY only 55 degrees.

[videodrone]

I would be ok with that, only because last summer was brutal. Me + anything above 70 degrees = no. I remember locking myself in the only room of my apartment that had an AC, stripping down to nothing and still being sweaty and miserable. Bring on a cold summer.

I'm dreading work Monday. Only because if what I heard was true, there's going to be 13 layoffs. I really hope that I'm not one of them. But it is what it is.

Ugh, god, yeah, I do not need a repeat of last summer either.  There's a reason I won't ever live somewhere like Florida; my body and those temperatures just aren't compatible.  I ended up massively dehydrated/mildly heat stroked more than once last summer, and not even from my own stupidity.  I drank water (though clearly not enough for the temperatures), wore sunscreen, and stayed in the shade, or in my apartment, as much as possible, but between being on the third floor, only having one air conditioner to cool the entire apartment, and just how fucking HOT it was, I just couldn't handle it.

Good luck with Monday, Drone!  Not that there's much you can do, but still.

actually it's not raining.....oh wait, nevermind:(

[kristin]

good luck with the family gathering, luna

[Aaron]

Luna, that sucks, Hope it goes well.

K. I would love a cold summer. I'm right with Drone, I can't stand the heat... So much so I may just buy my own little ac for my room and turn that thing to 11. I don't care about the power bill.

Also I hope your knee gets better soon.

[kristin]

Thanks!

And yes, last summer was ungodly hot and humid. I'd rather not have a repeat of that, either- but I can't deal with the thought of a gray, cloudy, cold summer. that's what fall is for.
