It is true that I just cannot see myself objectively anymore. I've had friends who have said that they didn't even notice my skin condition, even after spending days with me, and I'd like to believe that. But when I look in the mirror, it's all I see, creeping all over my skin (it now covers about 70-75% of me) and I leave, well, to be gross about it, skin shavings wherever I sit. I could deal, I do deal, even though shaving my legs inevitably leads to bleeding skin and scratching can lead to an accidental peeling. (Ew. Yes, even for the person it's happening to, that's a little TMI, LOL!)

So, when I go out and am actually managing to ignore it, I don't want to answer questions like, no, it's not poison ivy, okay? And... I'm not even sure that commenting on how fine it is (like sand, according to my hair stylist, and I use that term loosely) is a... compliment? She said it three times! That's just... bad manners to me. Though I suppose I prefer it to the usual stare I get, though the stare I can at least convince myself is in my mind. Sighs.

I guess it all comes down to, what happened to manners? A kid asked my sister the other day why she "sounded like an alien," and then mugged and laughed. She sent him to sit in the corner of the room because it had already been explained that she was deaf and he was just trying to be a little snot. Don't these people's parents teach them anything? Shakes head.

Peace, Ghani

So. Yeah.

I haven't been around much, which is my shame. I... just don't even know what's going on anymore. It started with my stomach, and that got pretty nasty (with a night spent throwing up in colors that you never ever want to see leaving your mouth) and that remained hurty, but now it's not just that, be it ulcer or not, but a severe lack of sleep. It's like I'm going through a breakdown in slow motion. (Quite a bit like it actually.)

I'm trying to pull myself out of it, but the physical symptoms and mainly the sleep deprivation just sort of keeps sinking me back down. and I got my period on top of everything, joy! Aunt Flo is always a welcome addition to any crappy situation! xP

Anywho, this is what's been going on, and I'm sorry if I've been a nonentity lately. Hugs to you all!

Peace, Ghani

Way TMI )

But, as always, I hate to end on such a down note, so here's a Merlin fanvid, using "Lancelot" from Spamalot and, not surprisingly seeing as this is one of my posts, centering on Lancelot! xP



Peace, Ghani

So, today my sister was unofficially diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis, the official diagnosis will come soon when she sees a specialist but our doctor's certain. Which is what we were scared about. In short, the scar tissue in her lungs is building up in such a way that it's restricting her air passages; it's treatable, but not reversible, so the question is how quickly is it advancing? Once we determine that, we'll know how she's going to be treated. This will all lead to a lung transplant in what I hope ends up being the far future, but she's just always been so sick.

So just... pray for her, if you can spare a thought.

Computer just crashed. Was totally just sitting there, innocently watching Merlin and then it was just...no more. Lost everything, all the stuff I've been meaning to back up but have been too lazy to. Seriously, it gave no warning so, well... :-/

I'm using my sister's laptop for the time being but with absolutely no extra money to even contemplate getting the PC fixed, it's gonna be a while until I'm back on a regular routine.

Suck

Just accidentally deleted all ten pages of the fic I was working on. From the floppy it was saved to, which was the only copy. It's just gone, poof, because apparently, unlike my laptop, things deleted from floppies don't go into the recycling bin.

I'm going to go cry now. Ta.

Peace, Ghani

ETA: Squeeee! Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] dream_mender's assistance (and link to the recovery for dummies program, heh), I recovered the file! Thank you to all who offered hugs! Backatcha!
