I think I see a light at the end of the...no, never mind. That's a train.

SPLAT.

Today was horrendous.  My scar popped open on one side, they won't sew it back up, so now it's gonna heal like that.  They had to scrub--SCRUB--my open wound with the cleansing stuff, so that hurt like a...well, let's just say it was very, very, painful.  They wouldn't give me good pain medication because they probably thought I was going to sell it or some such thing, and by the time I got the fuck out of there, all the pharmacies were closed.  So I have an open scar which has been thoroughly messed with all day, I'm in serious pain but have no pain medication.

All that being said...I'm smiling right now.  Six hours ago I was ready to drive my car off a cliff, but I'm okay now.

What shifted my attitude from looking for the nearest cliff to smiling?  Honestly, and however cliche and lame this sounds...it was Rachel.  That's pretty much it.  Tonight I really remember why we're friends, why we work so well together.  I remember why I missed her so much in France.  Just talking, hanging out, playing games, making fun of each other, supporting each other by making fun of each other...  I just kind of remembered that...well, we're....

Rachel, if you're reading this, you'll appreciate this:

WE'RE AWESOME.
