I was going to be all 'roxxors! I kicked ass at work today!' and tell you about how I am convinced that fandom really needs a Sam/Wormhole Physics = OTP story, and I was going to rec a coupla things even though I'm behind on the ol' reading situation.
But then I got the phonecall(s), emails and whatnot. It's good-bye time in the family, what with brain hemorrhaging and limited conscious time remaining. My family is flying me home tomorrow night, my housemates just transferred enough frequent flier miles so that I don't have to worry about flying again for the funeral this month (I had it budgeted in, but what a sweet gesture. I'm so grateful.) And I will see my Mom and I will hug my grandmother and calm my brother down and spend time with my Dad doing quiet productive building type things. I think my entire extended family is coming by the weekend.
So I am well loved, obviously, and I'll get a chance to love everyone around me at a time when we need it. And I just don't know how I could be anywhere else but home right now. My family is close and sometimes we are more clan-like than anyone else I know.
I have no idea why I suddenly became so concerned with the bananas I was going to bake into bread this weekend. You'd think I'd have a handle on my brain at a time like this. *sigh* Obviously, I'll need to put those in the freezer if I'm going to get any sleep tonight.
I will see you on the flipside, my lovelies. Hug someone you love today, if you would, as I will do tomorrow.
