OK, still waiting

Sent Critter a text around 0900 asking her if she wanted to run into town with me while I did some errands. She said no, she had a lot to do today. I asked her if we could talk later, and she said sure. I sent another text about half an hour ago telling her I was pretty much done with my plans for the day and she could call whenever she had a moment. So far I haven’t heard anything from her, not even a text to acknowledge that she got the message. But I’m not going to try again, she’ll call or she won’t. I might try again tomorrow afternoon and probably on Saturday night on my way in to work, but I’m really trying to avoid the attention starved puppy dog thing I’ve been doing.

It is weird though, not spending any time with her for so long. The past three or four months we’ve usually ended up spending five or six hours a week together, and some weeks we’ve spent two or three days together. I don’t know. It’s looking more and more like Critter is moving toward being “just friends” forever, but I love her so much I don’t know what I’m going to do. The only other person I’m even remotely interested in (Carla) works at my store so there’s nothing I can do about that even if I wanted to.

I found out from Ember today that S-Dawg is in a coma. The way things were explained to me it happened like this: Rah-Rah and he had made up to the point where they were at least sleeping (if nothing else) in the same bed for the first time in a long time and when she woke up she couldn’t get him to wake up. She slapped him, yelled at him, threw water on him, etc with no response. When he stopped breathing she called 911. They got him to the local hospital, but after a day or so he was airlifted down to Atlanta. He’s been unconscious for almost a week now.

S-Dawg has no health insurance at all. The company we both work for offers several good plans, but he hasn’t elected coverage at all. This has put his dad in a tight spot since he’ll be responsible for paying for all this, so he has decided that if S-Dawg has shown no noticeable improvement (i.e. he’s awake) by next Saturday (7/26) then all efforts at sustaining or prolonging his life will cease. I’d like to think that she got bad information from somewhere, but since Rah-Rah doesn’t talk to me anymore I’ve only got Ember to rely on.

Of course if he dies the funeral is going to be damned awkward since he and Critter were friends before their little indiscretion and she still likes to hang out with him at work when she can. And of course Rah-Rah sill thinks Critter is the source of all that is wrong with her relationship with S-Dawg even though that is not the case, their problems started long before that ever happened.
