ANDdddd that would be the point that I drop the F-bomb on the parents as in "What the F is wrong with you? clean up your F'in mess, GD it! Honestly, do you have NO respect for me and the requests I make?" And then mac would cry and tell me I was being mean to grandad and grandad would pout and I'd make big WHATEVER faces at both of them. - ahhh Thanksgiving memories.
See, Vera? Dress yourself up; you get taken out somewhere fun.

I've already done that. Several times already. Unfortunately, he's on the phone with my brother which means doing it at the moment is a no go. He's just completely deliberately unawares.
And I want a drink.
I'm just tired.

pick up the peanuts and throw them at him. OR, pour yourself a drink and repeat to yourself "when he's in the home, there will be people to deal with him." My brother and I like that one.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I have no idea how my mother hasn't killed my father.
Nookie.
In all likelyhood, its the nookie.
I'm sorry to add this thought to your current woes.

The time when that might have scarred me for life has long since passed.

That's good.
I have a Cousin who insists to this day that his stepmother (who raised him and really is his mother) and father have never had sex. They had no children together, there is no proof, he'll not hear of it.
It's pretty hysterical.

Actually, as much as I bitch, it worries me too. He's gotten a lot worse of late, plus his hearing has deteriorated to the point that he's agreed to go to an audiologist, just to prove it hasn't. But the amount of times we have to repeat ourselves or others has gotten out of hand entirely.

Now I just need my TiVo to stop recording so I can unplug bits and thread them through the cable management thingy.
