For the first time since all this drama started happening in the lives of my friends, I'm really allowing it to affect me. It's my last full day in Vegas-- a trip I planned to celebrate the wedding of one friend and support another for the birth of her first child (during a very difficult time.)
Well, I haven't mentioned it, but the groom called off the wedding (that was to have been this past Saturday evening) last Tuesday and it looks as though I will leave Vegas tomorrow still having not met Tigerlily. I'm feeling so... useless. Or thwarted. The same kind of powerless frustration to affect ANY kind of positive change on a situation I've felt a majority of my life.
I didn't even see my dad on this trip.
And the idea that this wedding and baby trip would end with no wedding and no baby just makes me want to cry.
makes me want to cry too.
