Is there anybody out there?

I'm realising that Facebook has made me feel more alienated from people than ever, I mean I get people adding me as 'friend' then when I send them a message asking how they are blah, blah, blah they just don't bother replying.  Maybe they just want to nosy round my profile & see some pictures (I'm private) then once they've seen what they want their curiosity's satisfied.

I've still not heard back from Dawn and I don't intend on chasing her up, I shouldn't have to right? I sent a message to Claire too, thought I'd make her feel uncomfortable by being nice and asking how she was: she didn't get back to me again, I thought I'd just 'delete' her but felt I'd get some sense of satisfaction knowing she could see what was going on in my world....she can't forget about me or ignore me, Facebook wont allow her to.  

I did hear back from Colin though.  A long message, very Colinesque, he's been on medication for most of the last 10 years and I think still works for Romec.   I'm surprised he replied when I asked him how he was but there you go.  This is the band we used to be in, Colin's the guy in the white t-shirt, I think the picture was taken in 1997/98 - before My Space could determine how much a band was seen and heard. 

EIGHTY SIX

So my dad's still in Pinderfields, mum & Paul saw him today & he told the nurse he was doing pretty well so er....."I can go home right?".  The ward sister told him he'd better listen up because they'd taken a blood test to check out the level of scarring damage, he'd got a level of 86 out of 100; the highest they've come across for a survivor.  She told him he's got to take it easy for 4 months for the scarring to repair; he was listening so let's see how much advice he takes.

Not heard anything from Nick but he's having his heart and lungs checked out tomorrow, he starts his chemo next Monday for 3 days a week for 18 weeks.  Paul and I find out in about 3 weeks if we're a potential match for bone marrow till then I can't really plan ahead beyond May.

Still not heard anything from Dawn to my 2....that's 2 Facebook messages; it's so strange she wouldn't ignore me but I can't keep sending messages; I'll just wait and see if I hear anything.  I sent Colin Milque a message but he blew me out on My Space so chances are he may do the same on Facebook even though he comes across as being pretty communitative with people.

Israel are fucking up in Gaza again, they bombed the UN headquarters: nice one lads.  

A passenger plane landed in the Hudson River in NYC with 153 people onboard, it's -6 over there  today, I think everyone survived.  Sky News are saying,  "some birds are responsible" hilarious.
