Please, please, I really need things to stop going wrong. Please, God or Yahweh or Durga or whomever, you gotta ease up. That is all.

There, there. I'll take care of those pesky, capricious gods for you.

Sometimes you've just got to ride out the periods when everything seems to be going wrong and try to keep a clear head. It's not easy, but a some wishful thinking and a sense of humor can help weather the storm. I'll throw a few good thoughts your way too.

I empathize in the extreme, especially since I think I'm in the same spot, LOL. So, I'll empathize and sympathize heavily. But I'm not too sure about petitioning the Gods. They're fickle and capricious and seem to like to be entertained.

God does not exist. It's just dumb luck. Bad things happen to good people. Good things happen to people who lie, steal, kill and cheat and hate kittehs.

Dammit NSFW word

OK, now where's this universe that's been treating our Specklet badly? Come on, out with you, we need to have a little chat.

Now you listen to me - all of us here care a lot for little Specky and we don't like to see her being hurt, you get my drift? It would be an awful shame for me to have to come and visit you again for another "little chat", don't you agree?

*swings iron bar nonchalantly*

Now, do we have an understanding, or what?

That's good. Now go away like a good little boy and don't let me see your face back here again.

Speckie. Honey. How tiring. You don't deserve it. When it rains, it pours. Hang in there. It won't stay this way forever. Let us know what we can do. Sending all good vibes and stuff to you.

I guess the good part is if you're at the bottom the only way is up. But damn it sucks until it swings the other way. Chop wood & carry water sweetie. (((speck)))

When you get pruned by life you usually wind up blooming a lot bigger.

Sez she who is familiar with the process, up close and personal.

I'm right there with you. This has been the worst year so far. If you need a shoulder to cry on, or an ear to vent in, my e-mail's in my profile.
