Company doesn't love misery

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

It's official.  I'm a drag lately.  When your mother tells you so, it must be so.   Was that supposed to make me feel better, so that I could be less of a drag?  If so, it didn't.  I cried.  She now feels bad.  I didn't cry so she would feel bad, I just couldn't stop the tears.  I told her not to feel bad, and that I already knew I was a drag to be around lately.  I told her I'm grieving, and there is nothing for me to do, but to go through it, and that I would try NOT to share how I'm feeling with anyone anymore. 

I'm just going to suffer in silence, put on a smile and go lay in the sun on this perfect weather day, with a PAGE TURNING book.  Anyone have a page turning book to recommend?  Or a monastery?

  1. Fall of giants by ken follet. I find bourbon is good for grieving.

  2. I'm sorry you're having such a rough time of it :(

    As for page turners.. I'm pretty heavily into the trashy romance, and I've always LOVED Shelly Laurenston Books. She has a gift for writing ballsy quirky strong female leads.

    (I figure since we're both fans of the quirky, we'd probably both enjoy reading her characters - even if romance isn't your thing!)

  3. I'm sorry you are "a drag" and "grieving".

    *Hugs*

    I just finished a page-turner, a Jack Reacher novel "PERSUADER" (which I read in 6 hours and wasn't too "thrilled" with) and have just started on "61 Hours."

    :)
