it's over (thank God :P)

I'm back. Feeling strangely exhausted, I might add - even though I slept longer last night than I care to admit. Apparently being in the same house with my mother for more than a few hours at a time, as well as NOT being able to go online for more than a few hours at a time, puts me in a really ugly mental space - frustrated, anxious and irritable barely covers the overall effect. Or maybe I'm just PMS-ing. Anyway... there was some major overeating going on, as usual (out of boredom, if for no other reason), but no severe indigestion - so I guess this year's Easter can still be considered a success.:P And it was nice to see my sister + brother-in-law again (we rarely bump into each other these days).

As for dad, he does have a weird neurological problem after all. ( Read more... )

Conclusion? Hopefully that ends the list of dad's health problems for now - but it sucks to be old and sick, however you look at it. Wonder how much of the same is lurking in my own uncertain future (I have been dealt a hefty portion of dad's genes - to the obvious disappointment of everyone involved).

I will work through the backlog of comment replies at some point - but I foresee a pretty early bedtime tonight. There's a thunderstorm outside - maybe that's also contributing to my weird mood. The weather's been changing rapidly back and forth over the past few days, and the crazy stream-of-consciousness going through my brain right now is far too complex to even attempt trying to dissect it. Or maybe it's just the unhealthy amounts of sugar and mayonnaise in my digestive system that are slowing me down.:P
