HI
I've decided that whoever came up with the expression "misery loves company" has never truly been miserable. Real misery feels worse when you hear someone else is going through it.
I got to go check my email at the local public library while we were on vacation. I found out that two other bloggers had miscarriages this week.
I cried quietly the whole way home from the library.
I do not want to share that misery with other people.
We're home now. I've got some stuff to share, but I'm too exhausted from the 18-hour drive to do it now.
But I did have a laugh the first night we were gone when I heard that Hillary's story of the girl who couldn't raise $100 for a prenatal visit, the story I wrote about when she was campaigning here in town, was baloney.
I missed my blog that night.

Oh thank God! I missed you way too much - I clicked over here so many times just to check it bordered on stalking behavior.
But I did manage to control myself a bit, as I didn't start hounding you or anything. But only because you had to spend some time with the husband.

Although I have never experienced that misery, I do remember going through the motions to try to conceive and they can be brutal, for those you know through the blogsphere that lost their little ones this week, my heart goes out to them, that heartbreak, I can only fathom in my worst nightmares......
On the lighter note, it's good to see you back, get some rest....

I have experienced a miscarriage and well, the misery is simply unbearable. The real misery though? Those people who just don't understand how miserable you are.
Hang in there.

A HEARTY THANKS
Oda Mae emailed me to say that someone mentioned me on a
Rachel Lucas post about people's favorite bloggers. So I just spent ten minutes reading through all the comments looking for my name, cuz I'm a douche like that.
Anyway, thanks to MargeinMI, whose moniker I recognize from years of readership, for mentioning me, especially in the same breath as names like Lileks and Steyn. It was such a compliment.
And she shaved four years off my age, so there's that compliment too!

Wow! I got a thrill there Sarah! You ROCK and so does Rachel. I hope she checks in here now that 'Rupert' is being deployed. I think she would get a lot of comfort from your POV.
I remember when I first started reading you and you were so thrilled at getting an email from Stephen Den Beste. (I miss him!) Now I know just how you felt! Too Cool.
