People who make me cry...

Typically get punched in the balls or at least verbally trounced.

But then there is the special breed of people...and NOT special in the dee dee dee way, who do something so kind, so selfless and just so fucking sweet that it gets me all misty eyed. Proving that I am not the heartless bitch that I often claim to be. Or maybe its just hormones. Who the hell knows. All I know is I had myself a good cry at work today.
Was it some asshole "candy" seeker? No, I tell them to drag ass to CVS where they don't care if you OD or sell to some crack head.
Was it my boss? Ah, nope they all love me!
Was it one of my co-workers? Hell no! Most of them are my friends, and the rest wont say shit with a mouthful.
So what was it that made this self proclaimed cold hearted bitch burst into tears?

It was my little sister.

I love that girl. She came into work today and plunked down an envelope that said on the front "just because I love you". Awwww, right? I thought maybe it was a sappy card or something. I've been having a hard time lately and I thought maybe she was trying to cheer me up.
She said she couldn't stay because she had to get back to work. And she left. Well, of course I opened it...duh. And inside it where gifts cards. MANY gift cards. Ranging from a gas card to Stop and shop cards. I couldn't believe it! I burst into tears despite biting my lip to keep them back. I called her, and cried on the phone with her. Until she told me to knock it off because I was going to make her cry!

I am so immensely grateful for the kindness behind those cards. I cant even begin to explain how much it meant to me.

And thats enough sappy shit.

On the infertility note, my insurance is being a big floppy dick! So my RE and the woman in her office are going to bat with them for me. Bless their little hearts. I deal with insurance companies every day, and I loath them so I do understand what they are dealing with. Hopefully this can all get sorted out before Flo arrives. Which I think will be early seeing as I ovulated early. I really don't want to have to delay this any further.

Hurry up and wait.

WHAT?

You mean you have support from a real live human NOT on the internet?

We may have to rethink your membership of the sad bastards club.

I do jest, thats special, lucky girl.

Wow, how sweet of your sister! How awesome to have someone who cares about you so much. :)

[as for the chicken...um...it's amazing what I'll do to protect myself from offending smells...but basically, I just maneuvered it around with a fork and knife so I could avoid touching it.]
