Hey all. *Waves and sighs* As usual I haven't been showing my face around here as much as I should...or being late with pretty much everything, not talking to people as much as I'd like. *Smile* I will get better I promise its just that right now- as per usual- I've got some stuff on my plate that occasionally means that I physically cannot use my computer. I wasn't going to say anything because I don't want any pity and this post isn't looking for any kind of sympathy, I've simply got to the point where I feel guilty because I'm neglecting people who I consider to be my friends and want to let them know I am still here and care. So I shall simply explain the basics and move on, you are more than welcome to skip. I don't mind.

My Mother is pretty ill at the moment and has been admitted to hospital, I don't have the closest relationship with my Mother. To be truthful we often cannot stand one another but still shes my mum and I do love her and wouldn't wish this extra illness on her for anything. She'll be fine they've got everything under control but my Dad has been pretty swamped trying to deal with everything.

I myself am cracked up. *Laugh* Well, if I am going to get sicker I am at least going to attempt to be cheerful about it. A couple of folks know whats going on and I know I owe at least one person a bit of information about what happened when I went for my last consulation *shakes head* it was almost a week ago now, like I said I am so behind on things these days. Very, very basically I'm being sent for an operation (which means that about the start of September I'm going to be out of commission again...sorry) and I am terrified witless. About what they are going to find, what they won't find. I just want some kind of resolution to the whole thing but...not the possible resolution that has been suggested. I wasn't happy. Also the pills I am on are doing really freaky things to my mind, the longer I take them the more they effect me but I guess that makes sense. But I'm losing my memory...my short term memory has gone to pot. This morning I found myself sitting infront of the TV eating breakfast with no recollection at all of waking up, getting dressed, cooking...anything! Things like that keep happening and its starting to freak me out, I go out and do that and its simply not safe ya know?! But if I don't take the blasted things I'm curled up on my bed screaming and crying in agony? *Facepalm* I have to choose the lesser of the two evils.

Okay now I've got that out of my system, I shall apologise for being a depressing sod and move on.

Comment to this post and I'll assign you a letter. Then you post this in your own journal with 10 things you enjoy that start with that letter, and give other people letters if they request them! Thus, the cycle continues. How exciting!

I was given the letter 'A' by exploding_candy because 'vowels need love too'. Lol, anyway at first I was stuck trying to think of ten things startiing with 'A' that I enjoy but I just let my mind go and this was the result.

1. Angels: Why? This should be obvious from my previous post but I can explain more. I understand angels, they bring me peace and comfort. I know my angel and they are a big part of my life.
2. Animals: In the animal kingdom I have ones that place above others in my affections but in general I love animals. Heck we are animals so how can I help but love them?
3. Analysis: Most people who know me know that I adore to analyse texts. I love to try and understand what the writer means, the hidden clues to deeper understanding. My last english teacher called my analysis skills 'exceptional', a friend told me I was just 'freaky'. Take your pick folks.
4. Andrew Lloyd Webber: Like his musicals, pure and simple.
5. Anime: I admit I am a bit obsessed or at least getting that way. I will try basically anything you suggest if I can get my hands on it. I was very recently introduced to 'Gravitation' and it already has a place in my heart...along with all of the other ones I've ever watched. *Grin*
6. American Idiot: Its an album I listened to alot and still like. It has some fun track but also the slower ones, a good mix. I know st_minority is with me on this one.
7. Antonio: The character from my favorite Shakesphere play. 'The Merchant of Venice', every time it gets to the courtroom scene I get chills.
8. Apples: A nice juicy, crunchy apple. I love it...I mean come one was I the only one cheering at the end of DMC when Barbossa finally managed to eat his apple?!
9. Apparel: Fancy word for clothes. Tends to be assocaited with the more elegant use of clothes...right up my street.
10. All of you guys: Corny but true. You lot help make my world a better place. I wouldn't lose you for anything.

Eh, considering I found it hard to start with I've got ten more things in mind but oh well!

Hmm, I also was going to put up a picture of my cats as I promised some folks a while ago but me being really silly somehow the pics are massive so I'm gonna try to figure out how to make them smaller first.

Anyway thats all from me.

*hug* It's great to see you post again! Hang in there, Beth. No need to apologize or feel guilty. Focus on yourself right now, on your strength and comfort and healing. We love you and are here for you!

Glad you enjoyed the meme ;) Haha I love that you mentioned the Barbossa scene from Pirates 2! He was one of my favorite characters in the first movie (and the only pirate who actually says "arrrrr!") so I was really glad to see him pop back in.

Thank you sweetie *Hug* That really does help me feel better...I love you too!

Me too! How can you not love Barbossa? He's such a cool dude and I guessed it was him so I was even more chuffed when I saw it was him. And of course the promise of a whole lot more of him in the next one!
