I'm with Pucky, I haven't even posted any stories and I feel a panic attack coming on. My sister, two nieces and husband are coming to visit for a week at the end of the month I'm sure it will be great fun. We're going to see my mom in San Diego on Friday. Fortunately, we have lots of friends in San Diego. I don't mind visiting an hour or two at a time in a neutral location.

Recently my mom called me to ask for some advice. A neighbor called CPS on my sister (I only have the one). I don't know the exact reason why, but I think the top two would be enough. They live in a house that could easily be on the show Hoarders. Their yard is littered with junk, rusted out cars, car parts snow mobiles and trash. My sister home schools my two nieces (9 and 4) which means they hang out all day and watch cartoons with mom on the couch and eat junk food.

My mom called to ask me advice before she talked to my sister. They fight all the time, and ever since I was little I've been the mediator. It's not healthy, it doesn't work and I've tried to stay out of their f'ed up relationship for years. Most of the time I can, but once in awhile I get sucked back in.

Samantha my sister's oldest refused to clean her room. I actually don't blame the kid. My sister has no leg to stand on. If I were her, I would refuse to clean my room too citing the cat poop filled litter boxes, the mounds of food encrusted dishes in the sink and in various places around the house and the mountains of clothes that you have to wade through to get from room to room. But, she's nine, so she gets belligerent, maybe slams a door and refuses to do it.

My mom wanted to know if she should call my sister and tell her to tell Samantha that if she didn't clean her room that the CPS people were going to take her away and she would never see her family again.

I was silent for a minute thinking that she was joking. Really? I quickly composed myself, because I could tell she was coming from a place of seriousness. And asked her to talk about her reasoning a little more. She said, "well, remember when you were little, probably the same age as Samantha you said you were going to run away. You were serious and I was worried that you were going to do it. So I said, that if you ran away that they (CPS) would take you away (we had dealings with them before) and put you in an orphanage and then you would never be able to come home or see us again."

I was really shocked. I'm not saying that lightly. Floored really. I kept composure and told her that it probably wasn't a good idea to tell my sister that. It would just cause a fight even if her intentions were good. Because in a seriously fucked up way, in her mind, they were.

No wonder I deal with panic attacks and wild mood swings. How in the world could my tiny little brain soup congeal into a properly functioning neural net with those kind of shenanigans going on.

*sigh*
 
why is this thread rated 1 star?

Cuz Matt Rain is angry. He's angry because Mrs. X told everyone that he eats his baby's poop!

For the record, I never give less than 4 stars to a thread. I'm just a glass-is-half-full kinda guy.

Ok, that's complete bullshit, but I'm not the passive-aggresive fucko who's been giving 1 star to a bunch of threads lately.

Can't you know who's doing it Rogatien? Let's CRUSH this fool.

Excellent thread.
 
Mrs X I would like to fish for our dinner and drink rum all day long sometime. It truly does sound like heaven.

Please wear the gypsy outfit.

Get on that pizza delivery tip now Bread! Once I fully commit to something it's as good as done. This trip is happening for sure. Just come for a week, or at least a weekend. We can get alot of rum drinking and fishing done in a weekend.
 
:ohmy: i heart lusos

i saw a portuguese film today set in colonial mozambique
reminded me of you
was about a kid who spent his childhood in mozambique and goes away to school
then when he's coming of age he returns
and sees how the whites act so uncomfortable when he is so natural with the natives' lifestyle
and notices the subtle injustices in a seemingly functioning society
 
Wait a minute. You have a lake? With fish in it!??!!?!

Unfortunate that I don't fish, but this is a minor detail.

I actually don't fish either. But I feel like I should. I'm a vegetarian but I eat fish. I feel like I should only eat animals that I would have the balls enough to kill myself. I say that I would kill a fish, but I think the last time I've been fishing was when I was eight. So, I'm a hypocrite at the moment. If you and Robyn come to Denver, we can figure out how to fish and kill a fish. Then I won't be a hypocrite anymore.

I wanted to get a spear gun for Hawaii, but I have a feeling Mr. X won't be cool with that.
 
We went fishing, if you can call it that, last year.
