if it makes you feel any better, your neighborhood is better thanmine, in which no one feels any qualms about chucking thier 40s out the car window to smash on someone else's driveway or mailbox or whathaveyou, and where the garbage and recycling men don't bother to pick up anything they drop, especially anything breakable or that could hurt someone/thing if stepped on or consumed. and gunshots happen about once or twice a month because there's still very mucha ghetto vibe down certain streets despite the fact that we don't actually live IN the ghetto or anything. do you know your neighbors' landlord? maybe you cuold notify them instread of calling the police - maybe just an simple anonymous letter or sometihng.

my equivalent of your MIL has created so much mama drama lately that both x and his brother aren't talking to her anymore. it's been bliss i tell ya. here's hoping the same thing will happen for you, that charles will just up and tell her to fuck off.

as far as your anger and the house envy goes, i tell you, i've learned a lot since all the hoohah with my employment happened, wow, almost 3 months ago now. 3 months ago i'd have been super envious of your friends' house and would have snapped at anyone who dared beg for a verbal lashing. but things have really been gaining perspective lately. it's hard too - i mean really hard to get to the point where you accept that you'll never have that big swank house and trying to just let things slide off your back without even phasing you. but you'll get there, and hopefully without having to deal with a landslide like i did. you've put up with a lot - you're stronger than you think.
