All the way back to Nebraska

[maypirate]

And so my odd vacation came and went.

I successfully read two books, rode in a lot of different cars, sunburned my face, tragically lost both Al representations on my bag (including the special button from cryogenia ;_;) and got three somewhat Nebraska/cowgirl themed upper body wearables. And some coyote faces. Also I saw my cousins. I like seeing my cousins. I like that very much. They want me to live in California with them. I would like that too. Someday, maybe. Although I missed Otakon, it was a good trip.

Sadly, my mom came down with some sort of horrific leg pain starting Thursday and it only got worse. She was in so much pain she was having trouble walking, so my parents canceled their trip to New Mexico and headed back on Sunday (I stayed and flew back Tuesday). They both feel it was the right decision but were very disappointed and I'm sad for them because New Mexico is their special happy place and they had a lot of things planned.

But at least my mom was at the interment service for my grandfather's ashes, which was most important. And now both my grandparents are home.

I've started my "new" position of being third in command at work and uhhh...day two of working in back and I've already run out of things to do. I guess it's back to spot cleaning the floor? It's like I never left!

And the girl I talked to last...uhhh...week was it? I can't remember, anyway, the girl I met regarding being roommates found some other place to live that has covered parking. Or so she says. It could also be that that's a nice way of saying "GOOD LORD I DON'T WANT TO LIVE WITH YOU." Oh so alone. Soooo aloooone.

If someone could please send decken money so she could live with me, that would be great. Thanks.

So... how much would rent be? Depending on how much I'm getting paid at work and stuff, it might work out. Possibly. Maybe.

[maypirate.livejournal.com]

It might be around $400 a month? Ish? I'd be paying slightly more cuz of the garage...

Hm. Well, I will find out tomorrow how much I make and how much our crappy government wants to take from me, so we will see. And uh I'd want to see the place. 'Cause I was kinda hoping for more in the $350 range, but if it were really cool I could possibly be convinced. And it would solve my winter commute worries, assuming it's downtown somewhere. And it would be nice to not live with my parents.

Did they ever find out just what it was causing your mom's leg pain?

[herongale]

I hope your mom gets the leg pain checked out. That could be a blood clot! I will worry until you reassure me that she saw some kind of medical person.

[maypirate.livejournal.com]

Yes! Er...but I can't remember. It has something to do with a muscle in her lower back?

[maypirate.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, she got it checked! Once in Nebraska, and once they got home, and now they've given her vicodin. She's almost becoming House. O.o

She was worried about it being a blood clot, but one of my aunts is a nurse and told her it wasn't that before she'd even seen the other two people.

She's seeing a physical therapist person, fear not!

Why was I not informed that your parents were going to be in NM? I COULD HAVE STALKED THEM REPEATEDLY.

[maypirate.livejournal.com]

They were even going to be in Albaskwerkee too! They may try to go again in the winter, I'll give you a heads up?

[bluejaysfan4eva.livejournal.com]

Yes!

Hope your mom feels better! And hopefully you will find the roommate you need :(

I would live in your fridge. If I were in America, that is. :(
