One crisis is over, another is just beginning (language and long)

This thread is so worthy.

so with you
this tread alone could be a soap opera

*sigh* Nothing to report on the WTF-a-thon. The Dane has been eating small amounts of solid food regularly. He did have a minor seizure yesterday, but thankfully there were other people in the house at the time (Mom, Lee, and Jess), so he's alright.

I did see one of the SILs yesterday, but she wisely decided to stay away.

My life is a soap opera right now. The only way it could be any more of a soap opera would be if I was pregnant.

As the WTF-athon Turns.



Glad you're keeping a positive look here. Humor is a good tool.

Good luck with that...he's lucky and you are too that you have people that come over and help and show support. It sucks when you end up in a hospital and no one comes to see you

[tropicsgoddess]

Becks, IDaR and Slice, I completely agree how worthy this thread is, pass me some popcorn too! GoldenAries, I'm happy the Dane is getting better with his radiation and that you were able to "relax" him before his appointment. "Relaxing" sure does wonders for the body and soul. I've taught SO a few words in my native language Dutch and one in particular my dad taught him too that SO likes. A few years ago SO went and setup the wireless network in my parents' house and when he was done, my dad asked him what the bill was for the work and told SO that the Dutch word bil (say: bill) means butt. SO says "you mean this bil?" and smacks my butt right in front of my dad, but it was in humor and we all had a good laugh about it (both of us and my dad).

And now, a rant:

While the Dane and I were looking at new apartments today(due to Fuckwit Stalker), I got to thinking.

When I was back in Alabama living with Mom and I only got to see the Dane on weekends when he drove up from uni, the SILs all lived in different states: I believe the oldest lived in California, the youngest lived in New Mexico, and the other two lived in Montana. In other words, all of them lived at least a thousand miles away.

After The Dane and I moved to New York, within 6 months, all of them had moved to New York, as well. In the very same city where we lived.

What. The. FUCK?! Now, I understand wanting to be near family. All my brothers as well as my mother have expressed the idea of moving to New York at one time or another, but have decided against it. Something about not wanting to turn into sissy Northerners. No offense to Northerners.

The more I thought about this, the more it irritated me. What is wrong with them?! Why is it, when we were only dating, I was a saint(mostly), and even when we were just living together, I was tolerable. But now that we're married, I am Satan and must be stopped?!

One of the SILs actually told The Dane (shortly before he cut off contact) that she hoped he never had children with me, because "she's not our kind." If we do have children (we were discussing it before all this shit happened, and we have started tentatively discussing it again in terms of a year or so from now), it's none of their business. God, I hate these people!

On the positive side, we think we have found the perfect apartment: wheelchair accessible, a short drive to the hospital, and two bedrooms, one of which can serve as a guest bedroom(or, you know, a child's room should we decide to). It's about twice as big as the one where we live now.

School is finally over, so The Dane has taken to sleeping for a good deal of the day. He's eating somewhat normally now. He says he's bored with not a lot to do, so he's taken to browsing CS(Hubsy, if you're reading this: get your own account before you thoughtlessly post as me. Love you!).

*sigh* The wedding is almost all set, it's just those damn bridesmaids. I found one dress I liked, but it seems that I have a distinct lack of female friends. However, a quick email to all the listserves for the school organizations I'm a member of has helped to unearth some willing souls. One of my best friends from back in Alabama is willing to be my maid of honor, even though we lost touch after graduation (her words in the email she sent: "Damn it, girly! You remember what I said: If you ever get hitched to that Nordic idiot, I have first dibs for the maid of honor position!" ).

Ah, chaos... I have not missed you. Please go away.

Dress wise, have you checked out simplydresses.com?

They seem a bit more expensive, but they have some really nice-looking dresses.

"she's not our kind."

"No, she's not a raging, vindictive bitch. Definitely not your kind."
