(no subject)

For all the friends sending good vibes to my brother, thankyou so so much. Yesterday they discharged him from the hospital... days earlier than the doctors had originally told us (Vay's intuition about it hit right on the nose though! She's -meant- for the medical profession :D). He's still got a lot of recovering to do, but the nerve that was damaged is beginning to show signs of repair.

Shai, on the other hand... *sigh*. That's a different, and longer story. Heh. But, it's more... expected with people like her.

Take care, all. I've got to jet off to work.

Midtown.

Down the way from my appartment, a child, or maybe two children, is/are wailing.

Maybe it's three. Someone is being disciplined for getting 'into their medicine'. And something is broken. The mother swore at the child and it sounded like a spanking, but the main reason to not be in the medicine is because of how sick the child is. But, I can feel an unhappiness... Along this whole block.

There are a lot of unhappy people living here. It feels like it's growing, but I know I'm just becoming more accute as I come into my season. I felt the first flash of Autumn move through me the other day. Like being struck by lightening, or cold fire. I'm so anxious right now.

I want Autumn to come, but I don't want Winter to come. I want the time to go past, but at once I do not. I'm anxious for my next paycheck, for Kris to be well, to hear about the house on Muldoon I might be moving into. To get a new job. To see friends, to travel.

To be anywhere but here, doing anything but this.
