Jet I feel for you I too lost family members because I'm Jewish and gay, they don't call or bother with me at all!! Its sad that the holidays come and go and not even a phone call to see how I am doing. Hang in there, they will have there turn!!

Hearing news of cancer metastasis about my IG cousin. Shit, we just find each other again and this happens to her. As if she hasn’t gone through enough. But, she does have a great partner which helps me with this quite a bit.

Never fails. It's a beautiful day, we go to the pet store to get all of our furies food and treats. On the drive back home "and this is about a mile stretch" we encounter a Nutria rat, snapping turtle, raccoon, and armadillo all road kill. That really saddened me. There building so quickly. We use to have lots of trees, ponds and wooded area's in my 3 mile radius and now. Every single unused spot is being plowed, bull dozed, and built on. The animals have nowhere to go, and yet we the intruders complain about all the wild life invading our space. Our space?! Hell it was there's from generation to generation, migration, to migration, who the hell are we to complain??!!! Yet we do... ~Shakes head~ this is tragically sad...

I had a moment of sadness when an older, long time guest who's developing dementia was on the phone with me and, "So, you'll be there to take care of us, like always?" and I had to tell them no. I heard the pout through the line.

Watching a show about the murders and rapes of young South African Lesbian women.

People that are just inherently mean.

As the bumper sticker says: Mean people suck.

Let us be thankful we do not reside in their worlds.
