This fucking day--this is a five-hug day.

This day. I read terrible news here tonight about a passing of one of my favorite writers. I really liked reading Vamphile's stories. I was shocked and very sad and I'm still reeling a bit, thinking about life and how rough it can be.

I was already an emotional whack-a-loon and then that kind of tipped me over. Menopause is a long, ugly transition to not using birth control. That's what it's all about right? There's got to be a bright side to it.

And also this.

A man came to my store this morning and tried to haggle with me about the price of a shirt. Like, we were in the marketplace kind of haggle. Um, Mister? No, just hell no. And get out of my store.

A woman, a grown woman, peed in my fitting room. A grown-ass woman. What the fucking fuck was that? Binitch, you pee on the carpet in your home? This is your decision-making on drugs.

I broke down in tears trying to explain a sweet cartoon to my kid.

I'm going to bed. There will be no writing, there will be no reading, just me crouching under the covers and waiting for tomorrow.

Also, I'm really grumpy because I think ya'll have me writing some kind of werewolf J2 thing--god!!

I'm so sorry you had such a bad day {{{{{HUGS}}}}} <--- (five hugs)

imo, menopause is awesome. I didn't really have too many flashes, mood swings, whatever, just a blessed absence of globs of stuff coming out of my uterus. Seriously, it was like I was passing a liver every month.

I now have Vamphile bookmarked in my fic folder. I'm looking forward to checking out her stories. It was interesting to go to her lj and see that it has been placed "in memorial status." I thought that was very sweet, and I've never seen it before.

Tomorrow will be better!

I hope you enjoy reading her stories. I liked them a lot.

A few other journal's have been placed in memorial status, [livejournal.com profile] thamiris comes to mind. It's a nice thing to do.

Thanks a million for the hugs! I feel much better today! ♥
