Enough of that sordidness.
I'll admit I freaked out last week. That last post was actually somewhat restrained, too. I was in full-freak when I started it, but I calmed down as I wrote it and edited it a bit.
Mrs. Lego had minor surgery on Friday and she should be back to normal in a couple of weeks. She also explained some of the finer details of HPV to me (which I couldn't get online) and there's almost no chance that I have it, which is relieving.
Trouble is that after that fiasco and her mum dying, then she hears on Friday evening her granddad (who has been ill for a while) has at most a week to live. I was woken by my phone at 1.30 this morning and it was her crying, saying he'd died already. In theory this is a good thing- he's not suffering any more and his wife can get on with things. In practice, Mrs. Lego's dad has lost his wife and his dad in a month. Poor guy. This time there isn't a great amount I can do. I guess I'll send him a card or something, but it seems like quite a small gesture.
Mostly I'm worried about Mrs. L. She says she's started having bad dreams about me cheating on her. I'm definitely not, and I think she knows it. I think it's based in her stressing about what's going to go wrong next. That and she's been cheated on before. Pure speculation, but I think the last person she really connected with may have been that guy too, and she's projecting his failings onto me... I'm sure it'll settle down, but I wish I could be with her right now.
Looks like I could be redundant in a few weeks, and I'm starting to wonder if I'd be as well-off looking for work in NC as I am in London... My parents would probably freak out, but... that's what they do, mostly.
