Hello Hello! I'm not dead! Promise!
Life has been pretty hectic lately, and i apologize for worrying anyone, as i see catching up on my reading there are vague murmurings of wondering just where the heck i have been. I've been taking to some of the withdraw associated with just having far too much on my plate at once. Responsiblities, work, all of that, it sucks up all your time and makes you forget to do things for yourself. The withdraw is my attempt to refocus on what is important to me, to think without distraction, and to get organized for the big kahuna that is upcoming, the sale of the family home. For my playtime i have been playing WoW alot, this helps me in several ways, it lets me have some recreation when my bod is just too pooped to go out anywhere, and 2 its an escape for awhile to get my mind off the constant rehash of life's little balls of shit thrown at me at work, like so many rabid monkeys:P
To quote John Lennon "Life is what happens when your busy doing other things"
My brother....let me say a few words about my brother..
So we are getting the house ready for sale...and this involves getting alot of the junk out of it, shit that just isn't used, needed or what have you. My brother had a brilliant idea! Let's take Dad over to the house so HE can decide what is needed or goes! The man with OCD that FREAKS OUT when things change.
Holy shit, what an idiot.
Now mind you...if my brother had to make a decision on whether to live or die im fairly certain he would try to get someone to make a decision for him. I keep praying one day that i won't be the one he comes to, cause freeking A, the cleanse the gene pool mentality is strong within me.
I blame my father. He didn't raise us right. I also blame drugs and alchohol for his contiuing state of deadhead thinking. I think the only reason i survived with common sense intact is because i raised myself from 17 up.
So...with the EXTREEM PATIENCE i am famous for...i said this to my brother.
"Paul, i understand what you want to do, you are trying to keep dad in the loop, but I'll tell you this. He is neither mentally or physically capable at this time to assist us in any way. This is why he is in a home in the first place. Ultimately, its not his problem, nor should he be burdened with this at all because it is not he who is going to be using, remembering or what have you the things from this place..its his children."
*hears the wheels in my brothers brain grind to a halt"
"Paul, this is not a perfect situation, and me personally, i don't expect perfection, but i would like efficency when we have to do what must be done. Dad will not help us in any way with this, it is not in his nature to do so, you know this. Let's just take care of this for him and not stress him out any more than he already is"
*long silence*
"Your right, Andrea"
Whats this? Im right? Right AND a woman? Inconcievable!
My brother was born in 1952, does it show?
Common sense...i think my brother heard when god was giving it out thought it was fence and jumped over it..
And that is all i have to say about my brother, the Broken Arrow.
Other than these little minor setbacks, my life is going well. I am happy and i really am enjoying what is left for me after the day of doing for everyone else is done.
Above is the centerpiece from my cousin's wedding, which they let me take home with me, cause they rule. Its a rumble fish, aka Beta Fish, aka Japaneese fighting fish. My cousins know me well:P
I named it Sushi.
Below are pictures from the wedding, sadly none of me, but such is the life of a photographer;)
Enjoy, and be well:)
