Damn, that's a blow below the belt :/

Did she say that outright, or is it just that your probably depressed friend thinks that atm?

[iceball3]

I'm not sure... Considering that I am an entire district over and spend pretty much no time outside of this house... To be truthful, we haven't physically seen each other in years, though she is still the best friend I got.
Damn, I feel horrible for not trying to convince my mom not to move.

Bah... Lost 2 hours of work...

Crash?

Three vials is pretty much the norm. There are plenty of tests to run.

Yeah, still, I'm a female vegetarian and it's a lot of blood for me to lose =/

Thanks, anyway.

I'm the opposite =/  When people started bullying, I just made myself more and more noticeable and obvious, until at this point people I've never met will say they know me on first meeting--or some folks will have their friends asking about whether they really know "that girl."

Oh boy, I sure as heck had that everywhere I went up to university.

...At uni, it was one of my friends who had it.  Mostly because he wore fox ears, a tail, and a cape everywhere...  ._.

I wore a cape through one winter.  I think it was my second year in college.  That was fun

I'm sad because Newgrounds may be corrupt. Is it true that people can get banned there for stating their opinion or is it crap spread by permabanned people who are too stupid to follow the rules?

Grandpa had another stroke, this one pretty bad. He's at the hospital, and I have no idea how well he's doing. The family organised a trip out to the hospital, and didn't tell me about it, the stroke, or anything. I wouldn't have heard about it at all unless I had caught my brother on his computer, and specifically asked asked what he was doing at my folk's house.

Going to the hospital now, and hoping for the best.

Between myself, one of my best friends, and another two friends, it seems to be a bad season for heart attacks among grandfathers. Hope you and him both get through this all right, Solifuge.

Just got back from the hospital with my Grandpa.

I don't have the complete story, but he was home alone, unconscious and covered in blood, when my uncle found him with exceptionally high blood pressure and a nosebleed. He was awake and aware when I saw him, but unable to make more than a few sounds; his speech center was apparently damaged during the stroke. He seems to be able to understand others and be aware enough of what's going on to try to respond, and has enough muscle control to nod or shake his head. His memory was as good as it has been, and he's obviously still in there... but I could see how frustrated he was at not being able to speak, or move parts of his body.

He's a brilliant, kind, and amazing man, and largely made me who I am today. The man was the rock that held me in place though a rough childhood, and has been more of a role model and father to me than anyone else in my life. He raised me when my mom was out dating and partying, and attended my events and concerts (even stayed out at 2am to catch my debut at a sleazy bar in Detroit). He taught me about computers, music, history, science, and airplanes... as well as the value of reason and compassion. He brought me to church, and though a religious man himself, he has never given me trouble for leaving it.

It was funny... while I was driving back, a big shooting star fell over the road. All I could think of was how badly I want him to get better.

Brotip: It isn't a best friend if you haven't met them in a year+.

I just can't feel sympathetic when you claim this, especially since TMoM probably has just as much of a claim to that spot as your "Best friend" does. Yet you don't post a third person perspective every time she posts here.

[Tellemurius]

Maybe because he hasn't experienced most of the stuff here. I wouldn't give advice for something i never past by before.

[Solifuge]

P.S. Windows 7 decided to crap out on me for the second time now. Registry got borked by some Microsoft Stupidity, and won't let me tweak it, so I have to boot in Linux to do anything about it. I'm DLing a Windows Emulator and a Registry Editor to fix it now.

[Tellemurius]

Huh, that is strange, even Windows have rare registry errors.

It can happen, if he has enough life in him.  Keep his spirits up.  The worst that can happen to him is losing interest in recovery.  I've seen multiple strokes in my family, and only one never recovered because she just didn't want to.  I had a great grandfather who suffered multiple strokes and made a full recovery every time, living well into his 90's.
