i need a "grr" face

i feel like when i think things are stressful enough, and i think that it can't get worse, they do. my mom emailed me today to tell me my uncle died on sunday. (and i just found out?) the circumstances of his death and the way my family seems to not want to get over it's problems even in this is just making it worse. actually, i think the family thing is making me more upset. do i even need to claim them as family? *sigh*

the funeral is on thursday, and while i might not go to that i'll probably end up at the burial. it'll probably supercede all other thursday night plans, so i apologize in advance. i'm not much in the mood for socializing currently, anyway.

i'm just glad that my class is almost over.

and i guess there is some happy news, leslie might perhaps buy one of my prints...if i put them online so she can look at them again. *rolls eyes* plus, i got to see a picture of erika's baby, and that made me really excited.
