Sometimes life is surreal
Aug. 27th, 2012 09:54 amThe last few days have been a tad emotional for me. On Friday, I was supposed to go over to my neighbors' house for my friend's party. I was half dreading this and half-excited by the prospect of seeing my friend, who is in all honesty, nearly a sister to me. I've known her and her family for my entire life, so I have always felt extremely close to her. She's the one person on Earth who knows everything about me, and yet somehow manages not to make me feel like less of a person because of that. I can tell her anything and not feel like I'm about to be judged to within an inch of my sanity, which is a priceless thing in my eyes.
Anyhow, long story short, I was not allowed to go to her party for safety reasons. Her younger brother threatened to kill anyone who came to the party. So, that was that. At this point, I'm thinking it's like something out of a movie.
As if that was not enough drama for the evening, we found out a short time later that my uncle got into a horseback riding accident and hurt himself badly. He is still in a severe amount of pain, and as of the last update was doing somewhat better, though he still can't get up to use the toilet without passing out from the pain.Yikes. I'm concerned for him, but trying to be positive about this.
I had had had plans to do something with my aunt this weekend to get out of the house, but my uncle's accident rendered that out of the question. I had also made plans to go see a movie with my sister again this weekend, but we both figured it was more important that she be available for my aunt and uncle.
My weekend was spent alternating between worry for my uncle, concern for my friend and her family, and the type of mind -numbing boredom that seems unberable, especially when it occurs on the weekenda. Too much empty time and no decent way to fill it. There's only so much hanging out on IMVU one can do before you are ready to grind teeth.
I read some slash, which usually always manages to take me out of myself for awhile. Again, though, there is a limit to these things. There goes a peek into my life for the past few days. I realize it's not very entaing to read, and for that, i do apologize. How is it that life can be boring and yet so full of drama all at once?
