Well, I've survived my first weekend home since the school year started. The world hasn't ended in my absence, so I now feel better about leaving more often. The first couple of weeks back has just been completely overwhelming with Greg's faked depression/anxiety disorder, Jerry's depression and binge drinking. Greg's now "dating" a 15 year old girl from out of province, but I think Ben and I have him nearly talked out of it.
Home was... Not what I expected. I saw very little of my parents, who were building the new deck, and I ended up working all day yesterday (which was good because it gave me money!). I spent most of the afternoon Friday over with my grandmother. She's doing well at putting on a front that everything is okay, but I know she's really a mess. Tuesday will bring some closure. By then we'll know what the specialist plans to do, and know whether or not we should be concerned about cancer.
But, on a happier note, I'm back at X, getting settled, and loving my new monitor. Mmmmm... Lack of fuzzy goodness... And I also have my new digital camera to enjoy now that I can actually see my screen. Yay!! although I should probably go unpack and get those pictures uploaded. Then I can settle in, and go find Ben later.

My Gaia seems kinda screwed...I see posts made on the Writer's Guild but I don't seem to be able to read them. That kinda sucks...And it looks like I have lots of catching up to do now that I am back sweatdrop
Oh yeah, I dunno if you saw, but I made a post on the thread you made to promote the Writer's Guild. Thought I would try to add some incentive to join wink
Friend's with issues aren't fun....But new monitors rock all out.
