Awww Hon. I'm so sorry. I know I'm not around enough to know how things have been lately for you, but to read this...I just offer major hugs and supportive thoughts. I think the world of you and just hope you find strength in your friendships in the coming days.
I don't even know what to say. I'm shocked! You two gave me faith in so many things--meeting online, long distance, varied interests...persevering through family crap. You two were such a good example of two wonderful people being wonderful people together and now...I just don't know. I really am just shocked.
I know that this is crunch time for law school and that this jarring event can fuck you up. I've got to tell you to try to channel your emotions into your work, as difficult as that may be. Also, I'm sure you know this, but I'm here for you if you want to talk online or over the phone.
*HUGE HUGS* *passes you a stiff drink, chocolate, and carbs of all kinds*
Again, I'm here if you want to talk. Seriously. I like to think I'm a good listener, and I know I'm good at keeping confidences. So, againX2, I'm here if you need me. *squishes*
Also, I'm so sorry I didn't get your email until later last night. If you want to come over some time this week for ice cream + the L Word finale, just tell me the day. :)
Very sorry. Many big squishy hugs. You've made me smile so many times, I wish I could return the favor now. Hugs some more, and will be thinking of you...
Just so you know, I am the sort of friend who makes vague threats re: the kneecaps of people who've messed with MY peeps. In case vague threats about kneecaps would distract you any.
