Well, you know...

...I really don't mean to put Lilac off about the future or anything. I just have a tendency to worry about things that haven't happened (or, in some cases, can't happen - I spent three hours sleepless one night worrying about and planning contingencies for being sued for hypothetically firing a marble with a slingshot at a noisy apartment from a house I no longer live in anymore...that is to say, I'm a total dick).

Now, how come your family visits so often???

Oh, you know, because family is important and family is family and family family family blah blah blah
[slurping sound is the soul being sucked from my body] blah blah family. Family. Also, I live close to my sister and one of my brothers now, and mother visits my nan and sister about once a month or so, and tries to get everyone else in too.

Can't you call your mom and invoke a really dreadful and contagious virus that "ô the injustice!" forces you into a quarantine?

There's an irony. It was them that gave me the flu which lead to the bronchitis, which I suspect is probably the cause of the chest pain (especially after the dust yesterday). Well, that or a mild infarct.

How long does the visit last this time? I'll be thinking of you!

Only tonight and tomorrow night, and we then visit her for her birthday on Sunday at my sister's.

Oh, and you can focus on another part of the future where you'll be seeing the back of your mom's car, grabbing your bathing suit and heading to the beach with the Loved One and the googies!

My beautiful vision of the future goes like this...
Me: Is anyone visiting? Have we got anything on?
The Loved One: No
Me: Ahhhhhhhhh....

The views were back today too. Just a fine layer of dust over everything. How 'bout you?

That's about it. Well, there's the beach, but, aside from the aforementioned family, you've pretty much covered life here otherwise.
