I&#8217;m not about to commit suicide anytime soon. Plus, I want to give my heart out to the ones dealing with multiple dangerous and destructive tornadoes in Alabama and Georgia right now. I still wonder why the NWS didn&#8217;t put them under a Moderate or a High risk. An Enhanced risk ain&#8217;t gonna cut it when you have a potential EF3 heading toward your house, threatening to end your life.<br \/>\nHere, we&#8217;re dealing with snow. Tomorrow and most of next week, it&#8217;s gonna get cold. Not as incredibly cold about three weeks ago, but March is definitely roaring in like a lion for some folks.<br \/>\nEDIT: My heart goes out to the 23 that died to the tornadoes.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, enough filler. Time to get on to come news. Starts off bad, but ends in a really good note of something I&#8217;ve been missing in my life (since Creepery left for college).<br \/>\nFirst off&#8230; something that has been quite painful to talk about.<br \/>\n<em><strong>Family health scares<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nI don&#8217;t know how to say this (and for the longest time I didn&#8217;t want to say it as it reminded me too much of the previous post I made), but&#8230; ugh. I can feel my &#8216;normal&#8217; life falling apart from the seams. I try to keep it together, only for it to unravel even more. Yelling at it, does nothing!!<br \/>\n*sighs* ..My father had a stoke a few days ago while sitting in a chair in the living<br \/>\nroom, where he has lost all feeling in his left arm. And the man is too stubborn to get to the hospital.<br \/>\nBut for some act of God, he&#8217;s still alive. I almost feel like going to Rivers, and yelling &#8220;THIS IS YOUR FUCKING FAULT, I HATE YOU!! YOU RUINED MY PERFECT LIFE!!!&#8221; Because it was only the day before, of when we had spoke about changing my life.<\/p>\n<p>And what I mean by &#8220;ruining&#8221;, is my mother and I highly depend on my father to keep driving.. as he&#8217;s the only one that feels confident enough <em>to<\/em> drive. That&#8217;s literally it. Both of us know he would be so much happier if one of us grew a pair and went to a Driver&#8217;s Ed course, but neither of us want to. We want our lives to remain the same forever.. even though we&#8217;re not dumb to know that it doesn&#8217;t work like that.<br \/>\n&#8211;<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t know what to think, or do right now. I want an alternative way of dealing with<br \/>\nthis, without having to overly depend on something (like Uber, or riding on the city<br \/>\nbus)&#8230; but there IS NOTHING!! Except death from suicide.<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t have the courage to get back out there, and risk falling off of a bridge or killing someone. It isn&#8217;t as simple like a bike, that you get back on after falling off.. because a car is a moving coffin if you&#8217;re not comfortable enough to be behind the wheel of it.<br \/>\nAnd I clearly don&#8217;t. The only reason I was before, is because I was playing this free Driver&#8217;s Ed game that actually taught me how to drive (on a keyboard\/mouse).. and I wanted to see if I could put these skills to the test.<br \/>\nI felt pretty confident back then.. until I try to cross the 2nd street bridge into<br \/>\nKentucky, get too close to the edge and start riding on it. <em>Did<\/em> get to Kentucky safely, but I freaked the fuck out after I got off the bridge (begging for this nightmare to end).<br \/>\nSince then, I swore I would never drive again. Infact I shredded my driver&#8217;s permit into pieces.<br \/>\nNow <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">this<\/span> has come up, and I may be forced to face my fear. All I can say, is I pray the process is as painless as possible (to what remains of my self esteem).<br \/>\nWhy does life have to be so mean&#8230;?!<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\n<em><strong>Story I&#8217;m working on<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nBut.. let&#8217;s move on with the other parts of the story. The day before yesterday, was in Desktop as I was still mentally healing. It was a pretty slow Saturday (as Kovo hadn&#8217;t been on most of the evening and night).<br \/>\nAnyway, a friend of Yellowjack joined us (who&#8217;s a girl). I eventually managed to introduce myself to her and found she&#8217;s an RPer like me. Except not for the same reasons. What she does is character-based, making up characters and putting them in her RP. She also<br \/>\nmentioned &#8220;my girlfriend&#8221; (yet also saying &#8220;my boyfriend&#8221;). Erm, fuck. But I kept talking to her.<br \/>\nSo the point of this, she indirectly gave me an idea of making a story, to finally end all ties with Lunar (by explaining it in a story, of every feeling I had (good and bad)). But hell, why do it like that? A story can be an alternate reality of what actually happened (of her breaking up with me, but to mention she&#8217;s in a poly).<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not what happened, but it <em>can<\/em> help me with my road to recovery.. and even possibly convince me to unblock her, and treat her as a nothing but a friend who just wants to be nice to everyone.<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\n<em><strong>True love is true friendship<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nIt&#8217;s now yesterday. Back in VR, feeling better. Especially after clearing up something that had been bothering me of one person. That person is a friend I haven&#8217;t seen in a long<br \/>\ntime (since the days of the Best Boi community), who I can trust with my secrets. But this person is.. very, <strong>very<\/strong> affectionate. If it was a girl, sure. But it&#8217;s a guy. And even though<br \/>\nwe (me and him) spoke of this before, I can&#8217;t help but feel creeped out about it. The hugs and the nuzzling, fine. But the kissing (and even saying &#8220;I love you&#8221; (in public))&#8230;? Uhh. If I may barrow a line from the song &#8216;TMZ&#8217; from Weird Al&#8230;<br \/>\n<em>&#8220;&#8230;So you cover your face, thinking to yourself: &#8216;Hey, isn&#8217;t this crEEEee-ppyyy?!'&#8221;<\/em><br \/>\n&#8211;<br \/>\nDude, I&#8217;m <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">straight<\/span><\/strong>.. not into guys. And the night before I came back on VR, we had a long conversation about it (to the point where I ended up apologizing, and said &#8220;alright, I&#8217;m fine with this&#8221;). I mean, is it wrong to <em>not<\/em> feel creeped out like this? Maybe that&#8217;s just my non-furry side speaking (of what is right from wrong). See, I don&#8217;t feel I&#8217;m a 100% furry. I want to have <em>some<\/em> form of decency. Though, I feel it&#8217;s from my extreme lack of getting out and being social.<br \/>\n&#8230;Bleh!! Anyway, I&#8217;m going with it (for now). The guy knows I&#8217;m straight, so that&#8217;s good at least. And he&#8217;s only being affectionate. Plus, if Kovo sees it, I&#8217;ll just slam him with a &#8216;No U&#8217;. Deep down though, I&#8217;m still creeped over it. Being kissed by a man (while as a man) is not normal and immoral! Irony though, of once having a platonic crush with an underage<br \/>\ngirl (which is even more not normal)&#8230; -_-<br \/>\nBut another way to look at this, to get this much love proves that I don&#8217;t really need a girlfriend to feel happy. Before, I had no-one like this (that cared for me this much). It has substantially changed this year (for the better).<br \/>\nPlus, I have really good friends like Azure who actually came up to me and talked for a good 10 minutes about my sona, even complimenting about his scales. That was<br \/>\nreally, really sweet of her (to where I almost swear she was drunk and trying to hit on me and cheat on Nappz).<br \/>\nBut that&#8217;s highly unlikely (the whole cheating part). She <em>has<\/em> been known to get drunk and talk things she typically wouldn&#8217;t, though.<br \/>\n&#8211;<br \/>\nFinally, the one that helped me with retexturing my avatar, has a new boyfriend. As I said before, I&#8217;ve gotten over feeling bad about friends getting lucky. I am what I am. So I told him that I was happy for him, and he thanked me with the words and said &#8220;you&#8217;ll find a soulmate one day&#8221;.<br \/>\nEhh, we&#8217;ll see. Not going to hold my breath.<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nAnd that&#8217;s basically it. It&#8217;s about time I ended a blog post in here on a positive note.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m still alive, folks.
