Illness
Three people in our extended have recently discovered they have serious illness. Globally, our extended family is kind of a wreck about this. It is no good when someone you know is healthy and then suddenly, they are not.
One person has cancer and is not expected to live through this calendar year. The type of cancer he has is mostly found in smokers and in drinkers. Guess what? He smokes and he drinks.
And there is no time to be pissed at him or work this out, because all the time left is about loving him.

So after that post a week ago where I was all Wahhh! Cannot talk! And such, a few things have happened.
1. I have stress eaten. I realized just how bad it was when I heard myself have this internal conversation: "Anne, you know if you go walk for twenty minutes, you will not be hungry."
And I answered myself with,
"shut up and eat this Ben & Jerry's. I don't pay you to think, up there".

More for LOLS than actual WTF.
Celebrities get caught in a lot of ugly situations. Half naked on the beach. Wasted at an all-night rave. Dazed and confused during a police mug shot. Puffy and discolored after a botched plastic surgery.
Nothing, however, compares to the horror and humiliation of appearing in a videogame. Beauty is destroyed in a vomit of sprites and mutated textures. Talent is lost in the wasteland of two dimensions or the soulless, robotic modeling of three. Everything fans love and recognize is warped, stretched, melted, bloated... and then paraded on the screen for dozens of hours at a time.
