So my grandmother hasn't managed to die in Nepal, she contacted my aunt, and only my aunt as she never manages to contact more than one person while away. Heard this from my uncle. Evidently according to my aunt she's still alive and all done with habitats for humanity so she's fine. She's off riding elephants and spirit walking with tigers. My ( Read more... )

So after much cagoling he let me spend the night in my old room on my rock hard mattress. But I have to wash the sheets this morning. And he's going to make me re-pay him some how. Plus rather being happy for me that I'm probably going to start a job this week he's pissed that it means I probably wont be able to drive him to the airport at the end ( Read more... )

My grandmother is trying to turn me into a basement dweller. I was talking about all the times I've had to clean up messes made by the roommate's animals and she was like I think you might be better off living in my basement. It's got a shower. All you need is a microwave and you'd be all set. Admittedly my grandmother does have a nice finished ( Read more... )

You learn something new everyday. Like today at work I learned that my abusive in and out of jail grandfather, that I never met mind you for the previously mentioned reasons, used to like wearing pink shirts. This I found amusing ( Read more... )

Thanksgiving with the family has been survived. My vegetarian grandmother cooked the turkey because the uncle who usually cooks it was at thanksgiving with his ex wife and their kids. It came out really well actually. And who ever made the mash potatoes also did a good job, and that sums up what I ate other than bread and pie ( Read more... )

So earlier this evening, before I came home and terrorized the roommate with my brother, I was running late. So I called He-Man to let him know. In his typically bizarre behavior he only used the word okay while we talked. So I'd called to say I was late but would be home by 8. Hug up and thought nothing more of it. Am almost home, almost to the ( Read more... )

My aunt, she is crazy. She e-mailed me yesterday because she forgot her password to access on her web site, like the blog I set up for her. Today she e-mailed back thanking me and announce she would now be taking over the world and that soon everyone would be growing tulips and eating Dutch pancakes ( Read more... )

I hope now that Christmas is really over. I got one last present this evening. Evidently when Dad and my step-mother were taking down there tree they found a present for me that had been tucked away so good no one remembered it. Also they seemed to think I counted how many presents me and my brothers got, thus knowing I got one less. Frankly I don' ( Read more... )

Survived work, partly because I was out in TLE for the last 3 hours. It was just me and P. the woman who works back there and gets mistaken for a man a lot. I suspect she is a lesbian, this is not because of her aperance, but because of some of the stickers on her truck ( Read more... )

So we were hanging out in my room and he asked if I still had a huge cash of alcohol in my closet. I told him not really, I had a couple empty bottles and a couple mostly empty ones. One of the empty ones I wanted to keep the other one just hadn't made it to recycling. He suggested we take it out to the field and shoot it off his target. So we did ( Read more... )
