After all the little things that drove me to the brink these past couple of weeks, I kind of figured that the universe had one last punch to the stomach to give me. Sure enough, yesterday Penny had to cancel our get-together next week. She couldn't help it (I can't go into any real detail on that), and it's not like I could ever be mad at Penny for anything, let alone something like this. I guess I'm just mad at life right now for the hand I've been dealt.
Making matters worse is that -- and again, I can't really speak openly about the circumstances -- I'm really worried about how Christina and Milena are doing right now, and I wish I could be there for them but both their circumstances and my own kind of prevent that. I'm not going to deny selfishly wanting to get out of here because the current situation with my brother-in-law's parents being here is driving me bonkers (especially with my mother being over six hours away through this coming weekend), but more than just wanting to escape this house, I just really need to spend time with friends now, and it's not like I've got (m)any of those left in Toledo.
I can't think of anything intelligent to close with here.
