so i'm in west plains, MO right now. and now that i'm older and wiser. i can realize how fucking annoying my family is and why my parents never visit anymore.
we are here because my grandmother died friday morning. she came down with pneumonia and thus her life came to an end. back in early december she was in the hospital because she hurt her back a few times. and she wasnt doing so well. they had her so drugged up that she didnt even recognize my dad, her own son. and that hit him pretty hard.
she's always been old, and had smoked for as long as i can remember. so i always knew she was gonna croak at some point. i was also never really close to her. i have a few good memories with her. but otherwise she was just my grandmother who lived far away. so its not really hitting me that hard about her death. i always knew it was going to happen. and she was 86. she lived a long life. and now she's up in heaven with my grandpa whom my 34 year old brother or me, never met. as he died back when my dad was only 22. and my dads almost 60 now. she was also my last remaining grandparent. as my mothers parents died within two months of each other when i was only 7.
tomorrow is the funeral and i just hope it goes well and non dramatic.
my cousin is fucking insane tho. well. i have SEVERAL cousins. but my oldest cousin thinks she's the greatest fucking thing since sliced bread and can never do anything wrong and knows whats best.
her two year old son has a cold. and he's sneezing and coughing all over the place. he is also having trouble breathing at some points. and this morning. he threw up.
so what the fuck has this woman been doing? sitting on her ass for one. she also keeps giving him bottles and bottles of WHOLE MILK. there is PLENTY of juice and oj in the house. and so this morning. i made a comment that maybe she should give him oj instead of milk since he's got so much sinus drainage and such. milk only adds to the bullshit going on in his body. her response "well, he threw up this morning and oj is acidic"
ok, so instead of cutting through the gunk in his throat with oj or juice, you are going to give him milk. and add too it. yeah. thats fucking BRILLLIANT
i was texting to beth about this:
Me: I really dislike my cousin and her husband. they are lazy and she thinks she's perfect and always right
Beth: well that sucks. why. what did she say?
Me:her son has a cold. and she's feeding him milk. and cuz he threw up earlier she doesnt want to give him oj cuz its acidic. WTFFFF?
Beth: tell her that is gay and she is stupid and if he has a fever he most definitely should not have milk
Me:lol. with her it is more a battle of words. gay and stupid wouldnt work.
Beth: Fine. tell her that her substandard knowledge of pediatric pharmacology is completely unacceptable.
when i got that txt i actually lol'd for real in front of most of my family.
i love my best friends.
but seriously. the whole weekend has been filled with this bullshit logic and she also is negative about everything she doesnt like. which, is just about everything. and on top of everything. she keeps talking to me like she's my mama. and she aint my fuckin mama. if she does it again, i'm gonna let her know who my mother is, who she is, which is my cousin. i have half a mind to tell her off before i leave. seeing as i dont plan on seeing her many more times in my life. also. she is TOTALLY off my friends list on facebook. lol
but its because of her i'm not sleeping at my aunts house, and i'm at my second cousins house. well. he's sorta my second cousin. what ever he is. he's my fathers cousin. but yeah. they are really nice and laid back. and they have wifi.
in other news. scott and i are doing great. i was at his place from tuesday night till friday morning. and it was awesome. mostly we played rock band. and i've gotten a LOT better at playing. but i also play bass in his band. on medium. but FFS, its where i'm good at.
wednesday we went to a very late birthday dinner for me at Sushi Bites in kennesaw. and holy shit they are GOOOOOOOOOOD! scott got to officially meet my parents and they really like him. my mom keeps saying he is a keeper. and i agree. after dinner we went to B&B for St. Practice Day. our group wound up one point behind third place, putting us in 4th. but we really did great considering. then we went to mizzy's for brownie a la mode where part of our group talked about drama in their LARP groups while i watched shaun white on the half pipe.
thursday scott took me to chow baby and HOLY FUCK THAT WAS DELISH!!!! i think the SGAtliens should go there some time. for serious. soo good.
this upcoming saturday scott is going to meet the entire bahai community for our county and i'm pretty sure they are gonna like him a lot better than tim. i'm a lot more proud of this relationship than i was with tim. i've found myself a real southern gentleman who is smart and amazing.
anyway. its one am here. i should go to bed. its been quite a year so far. and there was a small recap of the last week alone.
