Oh, in case anybody has wondered at my absence, here's a general timeline with some mistaken dates, I'm sure, of the last month and a half

what. Gregor. i am so so sorry. oh my god.

[totalvirility]

Thanks, I was getting bored at work, and people have been quiet on LJ, and I was about to write some snide reply about "Hello, people, my boyfriend's brother is dead, doesn't somebody want to say something?! La la la la la! Dead as a doornail! People are grieving here! And I'm bored at work! Please write your sympathies! He's dead! So's his friend! They did themselves with shotguns! They're not coming back! Did you hear about the stopwatches?"

Anyway, things are a little surreal over here. Haven't quite felt up to seeing many people yet.

i feel weird because i want to know more but i don't want to be an asshole. so if you wanna talk then let's. but if not, i am sorry, and that is that, and...uh...those pants you're wearing? fabulous.

[totalvirility]

Actually, I'm at work right now, so my pants are less than fabulous, and I just discovered a little hole in the crotch.

As far as everything else-- I'm drawing up plans for either an epic-length LJ post or a novella, depending on how long it takes.

Were I to see you in person, you would not be able to get me to shut up about it; I saw a few people in the last few days, and thought I'd just want to hear about their stuff, but then I cut them off and started talking all about the last week.

Ask any questions you like; I'm free with the answers.

Valves on chesty were under her armpits. The pumps (yes, there were pumps) were directly next to them. Reminds me of that old Reebok shoe.

Is Culpeper only an hour away? I don't know how much news it made, as they chose not to take anybody else with them.

[totalvirility]

Really? How old is the coworker, and what is his/her name?
Because the town is really tiny, and I've discovered that everybody within a 30 mile radius pretty much knows each other.

Hey there Very First Friendster

[adoniscapote]

I have no idea how i found you on yet another cyberspace interconnectivity-device, but i have. Seems that every time we converse online i'm expressing condolences for something or other, but i'm sorry to hear about all this. Perhaps when you're home for thanksgiving or somethin we can meet up... chin up...

Yeah, this has not been a particularly good year.

I think I saw you on LJ before as somebody who'd listed me as a friend, and I wasn't sure who you were.

Huh! Funny.

Except my shingles just peeled themselves off my face and I'm in screaming pain right now and need to attend to it...oy, this year.

[klingrap]

woah. total condolences.

[totalvirility]

Thanks a lot; I'll be passing on all LJ condolences to Grieving Boyfriend, who will doubtlessly continue to mock me for my online existence.

WOW; i was just thinking about teenage suicide yesterday and how I kinda wanna do a book on it...so two rich kids in VA make a suicide pack and drive to the woods w/ shotguns; that sucks, like hugely and Im so sorry for everyone's loss, but wow

[totalvirility]

Uh, well, one rich kid, one very much not-rich kid.

Not sure what all that plays into it...

[3rdworldcinema]

any attempt at explanation will make sound, deservedly, crazy

[totalvirility]

Maybe it'd be best if I didn't hear about the book, then.
