Bah Cocks
I'm sure that title will pull some nice yahoo searches, but sadly it has nothing to do with the anatomy of the male species. Rather it has to do with the USC Gamecocks, who lost 13-9 last night to Clemson. This is our big instate rivalry. Bah Cocks. I have been a fan for many years, even when they were 0-11..... so here's to hoping for next year. And they have a bowl game coming up so that will be sweet. :)
This week has been a real doozie. I must say though that my best friend's Mom's funeral was very nice. Short, sweet and she would have loved how everything was handled. She was a very sweet lady and she'll be missed. I'm funny about death though; perhaps that's why some people think I'm 'cold-hearted'. In truth it's not that at all; I just don't view death as a big end of all ends. I don't think of the people as 'leaving', only changing form. They're still here, and so I can still talk to them and feel their presence. And if you listen closely you will hear their answer inside. So it's not too big of a deal to me. I do feel for the family and friends that this person who has died has left behind, and sure... there are moments where I feel sadness at not being able to hear their laugh or see their smile again. But then I search my heart and I know that they are still here and so the sadness moves away quickly.
Still there aren't many people out there who think this way and so I am there for them, to comfort them and help out however I can. This is the first time I've been online in a week, (shocker I know!). But I've wanted to be where I felt like I needed to be. I think my sis needed me and I needed her to know that I was there for her. That's what friends are for, and as I told her a few days ago... blood isn't always what makes a family. And they are my family so they can't get rid of me. Bwahahaa...!!
I have a touch of a cold too, so I haven't been sleeping too well. But it's not that bad and it seems to be moving along quickly. Yay!! Oh also before I forget, thanks Sarah and TJwolf for the emails. No, I haven't received my dvd's yet *still hoping but DAMN how long does it take for someone to get back to you??!!* I appreciate the suggestions. I honestly don't think that I would take things so far as to file a suit or get a warrant or anything. The d00d does have kids and as I said, I always thought of him to be a nice guy; an honest guy. I'd hate to cause that kind of trouble in his life for something so stupid as this, even though you're right... it is his own doing. I just don't know why he's refusing to give us our shit back. BAH!!! (I take it as a refusal that he said he would drop them off at the house and has never done so. Also, still have not received any callback from the last two voicemail I've left.) I'm not sure at this point what I'll do. I know where he works and although I REALLY dislike the thought of having to go there to talk to him I suppose that's always an option. I guess I'll try a few more times and see where it gets me. I will keep the thought in mind though, and I'll let you know if I change my mind. :) Once again my fingers are still crossed that he'll end up doing the right thing and will prove that I was right all along and that he IS a stand-up guy, even if a LOT late. LOL my fingers have been crossed so long they're cutting off circulation. EEK! - posted by Loki's Concubine @ 11:08 AM
