Mrs. Smith

[roxy]

Yesterday was a bad day. I got news that my friend's mom passed away, and it was upsetting to say the least. I felt horrible because I just lost it completely, instead of being strong for my friend.
I'm going to miss her so much. Mrs. Smith (my friend's mom) always used to say that Mr. R was her handsome boyfriend, kidding around of course. I'm pretty sure anyway. :) She had this outrageous accent, cute really (she was Japanese) so...because my whole family is demonspawn, my mom and I would occasionally poke a little fun at it. Well, specifically, the phrase, "it's time to hit the load." I took to using it whenever I left Mom's house 'cause I thought it was so cute--except for the one time Mrs. Smith just happened to be visiting, and just happened to catch me...you see, my friends? There is no lesson learned so well and so deeply as a lesson handed to you covered in a thick coating of excruciating embarrassment and stuffed with "you're such an asshole" filling. Thankfully, she forgave me. ;)

I'm going to miss her so much.

Roxy, I'm so sorry about your friend. It's hard, isn't it? You have my sincerest condolences. There's been times when I should have been strong for a friend when they suffered a lost, but sometimes it just hurts so much.

My best friend is 68, and anytime I try calling her and she doesn't answer the phone, I start freaking out!

I know what a lovely loving woman you are, so Mrs. Smith knew, too. That was sweet of you to share her with Mr. Roxy. I have a boyfriend like that! There's an older French couple I used to work with, and he became my *secret* boyfriend, and we would tease about our *secret* romance within hearing distance of his amused wife. They came to work a couple of weeks ago to visit, and his wife cracked up on us running to each other and hugging and proclaiming how much we had missed one another. Hee.

I'm so sorry, hon. I don't think you should beat yourself up about your reaction, though. Sometimes knowing that other people are grieving as deeply as you are is comforting, too. (((Hugs)))

I'm so sorry for your loss. She sounds like an awesome, fun lady and the flirting with Mr. Roxy is so sweet! Bet she got a real kick out of that.

The world needs more fun people. We can't afford to lose any.
