No such luck, Sparky. Nephew & Baby Mamma loaned money to friends who refused to pay them back. Baby Mamma (who's a rather crazy type) proceeded to call them on the phone, threatening them. Friends called the police, who arrested them BOTH for intimidation. My sister had to go pick up their 2 year old daughter last night.
Nephew has a record (DUIs, assult, etc.) so she's not bailing him out. But Baby Mamma (who is a stripper) needs to work to make the money to pay their rent, pay their fines, and bond out my newphew. Not to mention someone needs to take care of their CHILD.
Feh. I'm the only one in the family who has the money so I'm just going to do it. They say they'll repay me but I'm not counting on it.
Damn, Cashmere....
Personally, it's nice to know that my problems are pretty minor in comparison....
Back in my single days, I would make a batch of lunch something and haul it to work until it was gone.
Me, too! Now I live with a dude who won't eat the same thing 2 days in a row. (Except, oh, his 2 peanut butter and banana sandwiches for lunch every single day. If he's cool eating the same thing for lunch, why are leftovers for dinner such a horrible, soul-sucking thing?)
My sister's husband is the same way - won't eat leftovers. My sister and I are wary of his strange, alien ways. Everything tastes better the second day!
we were both up for an hour somewhere in the 3am range.
OMG I was too! We are twins-like.
Wow, Cashmere, what a situation.
In completely other news, some cool photos of the storm that hit DC last night.
It may be the particular foods he's eating for lunch Steph. I ate cheese sandwiches for lunch every day of grades 2-5, and it's still a staple food I never get tired of. Pasta, chicken, or hamburgers, NSM.
I had half a peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat bread every day for lunch until 8th grade. But I like to mix it up now. And I still love peanut butter but very rarely eat it.

Actually, so was I. Weird!
