[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Evening! : Y'all tell me to knock it of if it's too much. I just...I miss her. I need her here to tell her about the mundane nonsense. Understand that my mom was my best friend. Ever, in life. And I need to tell her things, and bounce things off her, and just have a good laugh about the stupidity of the world. But she's NOT HERE. And she's not here because she refused to quit smoking despite all my begging so I AM SO FUCKING ANGRY WITH HER FOR LEAVING ME. She always said that her kids were the best thing that ever happened to her, and she loved us so much, and she was such a great mom. But goddammit I need her and she's not here because she chose an addiction over us. I'm so angry. But I miss her and I need her. /end superpersonal rant

<div>You know, this really gets to me. My mother is a smoker. She's also "secretly" addicted to pain pills. She also is very unhealthy and is doing nothing about it. I'm afraid of losing her. If you ever want to talk PM me. Just page me to let me know because I'm bad about checking my messages.</div><div>
</div><div>
</div><div>Yeah - I know it sounds horrible. But she really hurt my dad. When they were dealing with the divorce there was a nasty custody battle and in the middle of it she came home one day and said to he and his sister "You guys aren't worth all of this, I'm bringing you to your father. I give up." So he told me that when he heard that his mother died, he was upset because he WASN'T upset if that makes sense. I never knew her - this happened when I was about three. So my sadness for her is probably equal to everyone elses on the board right now. And that sounds really awful. </div>

I had to check if I was following eaglestown. I am. Continue.

Eagles was like ninja quick with taking it out... but since I refresh the page every 4 seconds, I caught it.

Daff, I can't say anything PPs haven't already said but I'm very sorry you feel this pain. I like Stlrz idea of journaling it. A friend of mine did this and said it helped sometimes. 

MyUserName1

you underestimated my stalking capabilities, clearly.

My stalking capabilities consist of clicking on things that are put in front of me, so underestimating them is pretty damned impressive.

[QUOTE] My grandma knew the answer to EVERYTHING. So I catch myself wanting to call her ALL THE TIME.
Posted by Nickivegan[/QUOTE]

This was my grandma too.  We always had a good relationship, but we became really close after my grandfather died and it just carried over into college and afterward.  Her 2nd husband actually left her voice on the answering machine (he moved in with her after they got married) after she died.  My mom was at work the day she realized it and had a total breakdown.  Part of me was glad I didn't have to hear it again, while the other part of me wanted to hear her voice just one more time.  I hate that she's missed out on so much.

PetalPockets2012

It's ok Eagles. You must protect your secret ninja identity.

I did that with a pinterest link one night and didn't think anything of it until Special PMed me that she could link to my fb. I'm not the best with internet safety sometimes. It just doesn't cross my mind that creepers would want to know about me.

Nickivegan

Eagles, don't you sass me! We picked prettyhaired boys so far. I'm excited for more handsome boyfriends. Although, it will be hard to take Aaron Hernandez's spot in my heart. Holy tattoos. Holy handsome face. Holy gosh he lives in the town next to me. Well, his mom does at least. BE JEALOUS, it's ok. I will let you.

[QUOTE]Daff, have you considered journalling about it, but formatting it so that it looks like you're writing her a letter?
Posted by strlzfan11[/QUOTE]
I was actually just talking about writing her a letter that she'll NEVER SEE. But what's the point. I dunno. I really sorry y'all that I turned this thread dark. It just came over me all of a sudden. I apologize.

Fishy on the piano bar does not surprise me one bit at all, but the only thing that would make it more complete is a margarita in her hand.

[QUOTE]I follow Eags.  And I've met her, in case anyone forgot.  Woot. I have no idea what I would do if I lost my mom.  I'd be inconsolable.....for about 10 minutes.  Then I'd get another mini-me. Too soon?

Stlrz, my mom and I had a chat about not being able to delete her cell number from our phones. I almost want to call it, but I think it was automated not her voice. If I did, and it was her voice on the vmail, I would lose it.

strlzfan11

Don't apologize.  We're here to support each other when we need it even if most of us don't "know" each other.

Muni, according to the episode of South Park I just watched, everyone but the Mormons goes to hell anyway.  Might as well entertain ourselves on the way.

I don't get the mini-me thing.

Holy crap, there are 568 posts in this thread. Apparently we're very chatty tonight.

Better than wearing that underwear, Steph.

WTF is going on with all of these trades in the first rounds of the damn draft?

Posted by daffodil_jill[/QUOTE]

I know it seems like there might be no point but I know a lot of people that find writing it out to be helpful. Even if you write it and then burn in or rip it up. Sometimes it helps organize your thoughts to get it all out.

You don't need to apologize.

[QUOTE]In all seriousness, I would be really down if I lost my mom.  I have no idea what you are going through Daff, but my heart aches for you.  I know it is not at all the same, but <strong>moving 180 miles away from my mom</strong> was really hard.  We are really close and I cry everytime I see her and then it is time to leave. *Interwebz hugs* 
Posted by crfb87[/QUOTE]


I admit one of the reasons that I'm terrified to ever move away from this state is because i don't know what I'd do without my mom nearby. I even got irrationally sad that she was going out tonight to a work event instead of being here.

MyUserName1

I have got to go to bed y'all!  

Goodnight ladies!

Nickivegan

Go see Book Of Mormon either on Broadway, or when it travels to a city near you. It's hysterical, and smart. If you know old classic broadway, you will adore it. But wear your big girl panties, because its crude. We saw it opening night, and if it wasn't so darn popular and expensive, we would def go again, maybe in another year. End PSA

StephBeanWed61502

G'night Muni!  It's my bedtime too - FI is looking at me like I've lost my mind being up this late.  Night ladies.

My mom's cousin & her husband live right down the street from where my grandparents did.  They wrote my sister this amazingly wonderful note when my nephew was born (they also sent along the gift my grandma bought their grandson for his first birthday).  My sister has it hanging on the fridge and I tear up every time I look at it.

[QUOTE]Mini-me - Austin Powers 2.  When Dr. Evil gets a mini me.  Then he gets stuck on the ceiling.  Pretty funny part actually.  But I'm a bit in love with Mike Meyer's humor. I text Eagles sometimes.  But I don't get the fun texts from Eagles that LDY gets.  Biitch'z holdin out of me.

<div>I get "Chuck Norris" texts from my FI. It's not that I find the joke all that funny, but the fact that he found it funny enough to text me makes me laugh.</div>

Night Steph and Muni!

Goodnight ladies that are leaving

Oh ok, I get it now, I think? hah I haven't seen Austin Powers in years.

Good night all who are leaving!
