and now something more personal

[gargantsurprise]

Unlike the previous post, this update is pretty weighted. It's not something I'm especially looking for responses to, but I've promised a few times to provide some explanation for faint hintings these past few weeks, so here we go and here it is

Ahh. I never caught the disappearing Plurks, just the ones after.

And I know we aren't as close of friends as in tne past, so maybe me replying doesn't mean anything. But you have my sympathies. I remember when the first loss happened, but this just sounds horrible. I really don't know what to say, but you and your family will be in my thoughts tonight.

[gargantsurprise]

Your replying means a lot, actually. I appreciate that we're not the very closest of friends, but you're someone I've honestly known for a really long time now and I'm glad to still have your friendship, you know? Do value that long-time connection. :) And I feel like, with aid of plurk, we've perhaps been speaking a little more recently? I definitely like to think so.

Thank you, really. For your comment, and for your thoughts.

[lady_noremon]

I am glad that it means something! I'm glad we are still friends too, and I can say that unless you drop me, I plan to remain as such. You're someone I think I've known since...2004? (one of my first LiveJournal friends, 'in any case'!)--And I am quite fond of you & your dorkiness. I think we are too, though I would like to try to talk more. I've lost a lot/most of my close friends lately, and I think these old connections with people have been a kinda anchor, and I'd like to work on them more. Because they really do mean a lot.

You're welcome, I just wish I had better things to say.

[gargantsurprise]

Absolutely! It's been such a long time now, goodness me, some eight years or such. I'll always be around plurk or here or DreamWidth or somewhere, and for all that I know I can be a total brick wall sometimes (I appreciate that I am not always accessible with my OC blather and such!) I really am glad to still have you along for the ride. Always feel free to comment! I will try not to be stupid about commenting to you in return, ahh.

So thank you, for thoughts now and for many years past! Glad always to have you aboard, hahaha.

You and your family, as always, have my respect and sympathies. Hannah is going to need everyone she can get around her to help her deal with this. I hope you can deal with that emotionally because it'll hurt both sides. Good luck Jess.

[gargantsurprise]

Thank you, Chris. I appreciate your considerations, ahh, and am sorry to have kept you waiting on explanations too. I'll be okay, quite sure of that. Just have to try and do what little best I can around here, you know...

[sanguinious]

I know. Dont worry about explanations, delayed or otherwise. As long as Hannah knows you're doing your best then no matter how little it is is still a weight off her shoulders. Be proud of that at the least.

i know we don't talk a lot but
my condolances. :< i hope everyone can stay strong.

[gargantsurprise]

Thank you, I really do appreciate it. I have confidence in them, rough as it'll be for a time, ahh.

[theeternalmind]

I don't have Plurk so I didn't know this was going on, but... that really does sound awful. :( You and your family have my condolences.

[gargantsurprise]

Thank you, Ayu. And yeah, that's another part of why I posted here and then linked this to plurk, just for those outside of that loop. Because this is such lovely news, ahaha, but. you know.

I'm so sorry for only commenting this late, I've been away from LJ all this time and now feel guilty I don't check it more regularly. I'm so sorry for the loss, and you, your brother and his girlfriend have my deepest sympathies. There's not much I can say or do, I wish there was -- but am thinking of you.
