The good and the bad.
I went to a party with a friend last night up in Los Feliz and had a great time. I have laughed like that in vary long time. Met a few fun people and I am sure there were a few SG people there. Had an awesome time in an awsome house. Made some industry contacts just a great time overall. Alex has an amazing place.
The phone rings this AM and my Mom says that she could not start her new job. Her chest X-ray shows TB or Cancer. She went for an Xray because she cant work with active TB which she tests positive for since working on TB wards in the 60's. So mom has no job cant start here new one and has TB or Lung Cancer and no savings. Its a shit pie and a big spoon
Not sure what to do! I am not able to support her I just don't make enough I am 1000 miles away with no job prospects at all there so going there to help out is not feasible. She lives in a small central Texas town 100 miles from any sizable town.
I am finally starting to get where I want to be, doing what I want to do and ... a selfish way to think of it at best.
Ultimately it comes down to feeling like everything is out of my control or even Influence.
Now what?

You went to Canter's without me! Shame on you! You should have called me! (Like the Jewish guilt I threw in there?) I really need to go down there and have a bite soon.
I'm really sorry to hear about your mom. I'm not sure that taking care of yourself is selfish, though. I know it *feels* selfish ... but seriously, if you don't care of yourself, you usually fail yourself and the other person. That's my personal experience. I'm sure more will be revealed; you probably don't have enough information to make a lot of decisions yet. Hang in there. I'm really sorry you're going through this.
