>>>Damn, I'm sorry things are going so awful for you, my Queen. What little I know about Jay and yourself tells me that you deserve better days than these. You know We'll all be here to "listen" to whatever's troubling you two, don't you? >>>Just keep your head up, O Mighty Metroid, and know that plenty of people care for you. When you've got that, better days should follow. If there's anything we all can do to help youse along, don't hesitate, OK?-Depon>>>P.S. Jay, don't throw it away, kid. Just remember how good life feels when you play music, for example. YOU'VE STILL GOT SONGS IN YOU. If nothing else, live for that. I had a pretty lousy adolescence (though not as bad as some), and I'm just getting around to the type of joy I should've been experiencing when I was your age. As Aimee Mann said "Sometimes it takes a lifetime to get what you need" (Song's "Mr. Harris" from the CD "Whatever." Try to listen to it with dry eyes (I can't!) Or as Tom Robbins put it: "It's never too late to have a happy childhood." If I would've done myself when I was in my worst times, I would've missed out on most of my best times. So when you feel too down to live, play music, put on your dancewear, meditate, write us tightsmen, do whatever'll get you through, 'cause however you might feel at that moment, you honestly don't wanna miss what's gonna happen next! (I know it might be dopey, but I firmly believe that most suicides' last thought is one of sudden regret, when they realize too late what they've thrown away...)>>>P.P.S. I lost my dad through a series of strokes (over a period of about seventeen years-my dad "died" when I was 13, but didn't get around to letting his life end 'till I was 30), so you have both my empathy and sympathy. As for the schoolwork, well...you know what I'm gonna write here, don'tcha?>>>P.P.P.S. If nothing else, stick around for our sake. What fun would this board be without you two?
