More whingeing.

J was supposed to take Carly the dog to meet with a home owner and their dog Sunday, but the Homeowner had something else to do. J was supposed to take dog and met this man yesterday but it didn't happened. He was supposed to met this man today, but it didn't happened. Mom was going to drive him on Monday and wanted to know when J wanted to go, but when pressed, the story changed three times and J got ticked and left. When he came back about dinner time, he was dramatically hard done to, and with the manner a martyr could envy, declined the offer to dinner; he was off to "play" more with his friend, leaving poor Carly home alone all day. When asked what happened today, he just said he called and got an answering machine. There is actually no proof that this possible room for rent is real. And besides, if he has all these friends, why aren't they putting J up?

I think he's home early from work as he said he wasn't feeling well today. Actually, neither one of us is feeling well and we are going to bed early, too. I think if he is under the weather tomorrow, I may insist he go to a motel, where he'd have a proper bed and warmth. He'd gone shopping at Target and said he was thinking of buying a tent to live in. Jeez, that would be even less shelter than a damn garage.

And lest I forget to mention again, he was praising his automotiveless state and said he'd let his driver's license lapse. I can not fathom such a decision. A CA driver's license is the prime ID card here, and aside from a couple of bucks every 4 years to renew, does not take any other effort. My theory is that this way he forces others to take care of him. Again, I can't fathom an existence where I had to continually ask for charity from others and depend on them for all of life's basics. I feel sure he will be a homeless person at some point and you know what? I bet he will be just as happy as he is now, if not more so.

Oh, and I see The Brady Bunch has been added to the Tivo To Do list.

And to post a follow up on the work thing, that baby was taken off the ventilator a few hours after I left and her parents held her until she passed away. They brought us gifts of homemade cookies and it makes me cry to think of any of this. That poor woman, still healing from her c-section numbly making cookies while she and her husband planned the funeral of their only child.

Well, hell, ain't I just a ray of sunshine?


The good news is that Reggie didn't get panicked today and tomorrow he will have roast turkey. Since I have to work Thur/Fri/Sat, we will be celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow, a day early. Reg and Brindle will be going to the vets; Reg to get his titer checked and Brindle to have his skin looked at. Please let there be a steroid shot in his future as I'm quite alarmed at the prospect of giving a pill to 12 pounds of lightning fast reflexes that is armed with 20 miniture scimitars and a full set of fangs. I have mentioned this cat doesn't give a damn how much bigger his opponent is, right? Reg on the other hand is completely compliant and helpful. These two couldn't be more different.

I don't have any clever words or advice, just a hug for all you're going through right now.

Thank you. I appreciate that. I know I just need to shut down my own personal little pity party, but unfortunately, a journal is the place to explore one's thoughts. I just need better thoughts.

I hope you are beginning to feel better by now?
