Gigi's Journal

*hangs head*    I ....missed another birthday........ oh, boy I'm slipping.......  but better late than never....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHAR!!!!!!!!     SWEETEST WOMAN I EVER HAD THE PLEASURE TO MEET! 

Happy Birthday!!!! to the most excellent tommdroid!!!!! 

Okay........

I know there are like... TWO people in the world, including me, who are gonna get this, but I just have to....

Defective Beauty. Aoi screaming. Aoi gyrating. Aoi playing bass.

*flails and faints*

I was the victim of a random act of kindness today.

Mikey's mom, my friend Lori and I were at a local restaurant for lunch. When we went to leave, we were informed that the family at the table across from us (they had left a short time earlier) had paid the bills for all three of us.

The waitress said the man told her not to tell us anything till they'd gone, and that they said, "Merry Christmas."

That was more precious than any gift bought in a store; what a beautiful gesture!

Pass it on, folks... do something nice for someone you don't know. Be kind to those around you without any expectation of recognition or pay back. There is far too much hate, disrespect, and lack of compassion in this world. And I refuse to let it deaden me to the people I share this life with.

It will all come back to you. I had done this for someone in line at McDonalds about a month ago - paid for their meal. I told the girl at the window to tell them to just... pass it on.

And today, it was.

The 2006-2007 Decomposition Beauty Final Tour: Meaningless Art That People Showed

The Gazette. OMFG. "Filth in the Beauty." I want to have Aoi's babies. Now. And Ruki's, Reita's, Kai's, and Uruha's as well.

Any other Gazette freaks out there?

*flails and swoons*

The kewlest thing is that this DVD is going for almost $50 on Amazon and I nicked it for $6.99 on Ebay. Muwhahahahahahaaaaa!

Okay. This is getting to be a little too much to handle.

I know some of you are aware of how bad the summer/fall was with my mom dying... and then it continued at work, but I sat here this morning at home, with yet ANOTHER piece of bad news.

This has been my summer:

July 14 - mom dies

One week later - sister-in-law's mother dies (I was close to her as well, for over 25 years)

October 10 - my dear friend and coworker (I have supervised her for 10 years), from leaving work on Wednesday, to Thursday, suffered 31 strokes, three of them massive, from undiagnosed, untreated hypertension. She was just moved from the hospital yesterday to a nursing home where she will probably spend the rest of her life. She is paralyzed on the right side, can't talk, can barely feed herself, and only is cognizant about half of the time. We were all shattered at work when this happened, because we are practically family there. It is an incredible group of people to work with.

Okay... and remember, all of this is happening in my department....

Two weeks ago, another coworker had her brother die.

This week, yet another coworker had his father die.

Yesterday, my supervisor's mother died.

This morning, I received an email from our Chief Financial Officer that yet another coworker, a lovely woman, had been diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer.

Isn't this enough? I mean.... really.

I'm just numb.

Whoooo.

The new HIM album.... "Venus Doom." Oh yeah.
