(no subject)
i was doing so good with updating again, but then i got a new job and i kind of slacked off for a bit there. oh well, nothing too interesting has been going on, although my family has had all kinds of drama, so maybe that's interesting.
the new job is good, its really close to work and everyone is very nice. its the slow time around here, so i've been doing little tasks and reading a lot of instruction manuals. at least i'm not being thrown into the middle of the really busy time. but so far, so good.
james turned 4 months last week. he got shots earlier this week (on monday) and it's crazy how babies react to them. i guess its just because babies have no other way to tell us that they're not feeling well other than to cry (all night...). but he's feeling better and i'm feeling better since i actually got some sleep last night.
so the family drama. i guess the main thing is that my brother got a dui last night. my mom told me today when i talked to her, as i'm not exactly talking to my brother. a little backstory: in the middle of august, my brother flipped out on me. he's done thing before and basically likes to blame all of life's ills on me. this time it was because i made a joke about something he said on a facebook photo. he decided that i was a smartass, that everyone in my family thinks that, and i should grow up. when i called him out on this privately he ended up saying that's wished the baby and i had died in the hospital. a couple days after that he came over to my house and cried. then i called him on his birthday last week and that's really be our only communication. so he's basically screwed if (or should i say when?) he's convicted. he already has no job right now and having a conviction/suspended license/huge fine to deal with isn't going to help. i'm simultaneously worried and annoyed.
