Let me count the ways...
First of all, my grandmother passed away almost two weeks ago, which is probably at the pinnacle of a very shitty April. I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but my dad is deceased. This was his mother and I felt, in some ways, that some of the last connections I have to my father (whom I miss the crap out of, by the way) are disappearing.
Now everything else will seem very minor in comparison, but I'm still ready to put April behind me and give it the middle finger all the while. Add to this an extreme case of clumsiness that has led to a busted toe, burned fingers, and a sliced finger. Also throw in my sixteen-year-old cat who now has kidney disease and who's health is deteriorating at a rapid rate.
Man, fuck April. Fuck April and all the shit that's been happening in the world as well.
Alas, there are silver linings in all this shit going on. I found I do have a damned solid support system, I've been writing like crazy, and I now have this boyfriend to keep me occupied. So not everything is bad. It just seems like some of the other shit that's been going on is overshadowing the great things happening in my life at the moment.
