New Year's Day at about two in the morning my mother-in-law's house burned to the ground. Living there was her, her common-law husband and her other son. They don't call us until later that evening. Somewhere around seven in the evening. Shelia and Troy are staying in an extended stay hotel. Jon Paul, the brother, is staying with us. He is an alcoholic. I've been...

Something worthy to note. Cough syrups with hydrocodone will put you to sleep if you only take one dose. If you take two you stay up all night in a strange state of half sleep. I laid in bed with my eyes closed for hours and hours listening to the dogs, the hum of the computers and the creaking of the house. I was comfortable,...

And the good news keeps on coming.

I've had a relapse and find myself back into the full swing of pneumonia fun times. I decided to try a new doctor this time, one that at least put on the appearance of having clean facilities. The new doc was kind enough to give me a burning shot in the ass a couple of new 'scripts. These...

It's not just the flu. I have walking pneumonia. Whoo hoo.

I think it was Sunday. That had to be it. Everyone and their brother showed up at my work. Old co-workers, people I never call friends, old classmates, old bosses ... ya know, people you hope to not run across at work. Of course, not a one of them are there to buy a damn thing, I'm sick as hell and lacking any patience at...

This is just perfect. To end the worst week in the world I get the gift of the flu. The funny part is about two weeks ago I told my manager that I generally don't get sick unless it's some freak of nature thing, like a kidney infection gone septic. I've already taken a day and a half off for the funeral and all that's...

I've thought about it and thought about it and the only way I seem to be able to find forgiveness in my heart for the vulture that gave birth to me is to think about love as a finite. Were she to have love in her heart would I be capable of loving even those who have hurt me the most? Were she capable of...

Okay, first off, no panic. Not preggies ... just don't like taking risks. I was blowing some quick steam before work. Now that I'm comfortably numb I'll give the last update. My grandfather died today. I stayed with his body for the last four and a half hours. They took him away right after I left. I couldn't stand to stick around for it. I...

Um, yeah. I don't want to get pregnant. Got the five year plan going on here ... and it doesn't include kids. So, in conclusion: WTF!?! Can't you ask first?

Yesterday was just strange. I got up at seven to get myself ready for work. (Read: Drink enough coffee so I won't run people off the road.) It was a blissfully short day at work which was immediately followed by a lenthy session and my grandparents house. I suppose this wouldn't be hitting me so hard if they hadn't been the ones to raise me....

This is just a quick one being as I have to head to work in about 25 min and I'm not even dressed yet. It's a short day today and right after I have to head to Grandma's house. It's here. The days I've been dreading. The reason why I moved here. (By the by, the original theory was that I would only be in...

This particular issue has been so depressing/elating/depressing that I haven't been capable of writing about it. Now that it's all over I think I can take a shot at it. I've been job hunting for a while now and had found a new line of work that was safe, relatively short on hours and flexible around school. To top it off the people appear to...
