Enough already with the constant updates on Gabrielle Giffords.
Seriously.
It’s annoying me. I’m sorry she was shot in the head. It’s horrible. I’m amazed she’s alive. Maybe she’s the Antichrist, like one of my friends suggested. (Friend was serious, alas.) But who knows? If she suddenly becomes very powerful, I guess we all need to watch out. It’s gonna really piss me off to waste all this energy hearing about her recovery and trying to care only to find out in the end that she’s really the devil incarnate. “666 for you. 666 for youuu. 666 for youuuuu.”
So that’s why I’ve stopped caring now. It’s a preemptive strike against potential Antichrist-ism.
Honestly, I got fewer updates on my BIL when he was in the hospital post cancer surgery AND I WAS THERE. I was family. It was sometimes hours and hours between updates or visits from an actual doctor. The guy was in the SICU for several days, he wasn’t doing well, I was there, and still, I knew less about his condition than I know about Head Wound Hattie. I don’t need to know when she opens her eyes and when she blinks and when she stands and what color the pee in her catheter bag is.
I should be ashamed of myself, but I’m kind of … not. The channel is now changed the minute I hear her name. The more they talk about her, the less I care.
I have recovery fatigue.
Plus, she’s probably the Antichrist.
i’m with you tracey. the media beats the story to death. i am preparing to be sickened beyond belief when she takes her place on the floor of Congress. it is going to be a circus.
Agreed. And I’m glad you mentioned your BIL – I’ve been meaning to ask how he’s doing…
cindy — Again, it’s horrible what that psycho did to her — and that 6 others who don’t get talked about — are dead, but enough already. I feel like I’m privy to things I shouldn’t be privy to, you know?
She must not be doing THAT well because if she knew about the nonstop updates on her status, she might want to say “Back off. Lemme figure out how to write again in private.”
Katie — It’s been rough since December. Thanks for asking. His recovery is slow and we’re not sure yet what this might mean, if anything.
Thank you for saying this. It had to be said, and I’m glad it was you.
I’m the debil.
