Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

Our wings are not tired.

After my catch up I now want to take a bath.

{{Zenkitty}} I hope you find a way to stay close without being drawn into the undesirable drama.

Very cool news, Seska.

sj, I hope today's visit leads to solutions.

Lazy day here. I am still home in jammies. Normally at work hours ago, but couldn't make it happen. I drove Bobby to school and saw a most lovely sunrise, but came home and promptly fell asleep on the couch. I made instant! coffee, now that is really lazy, and also gross btw. And had a cup of dry granola to hopefully give a boost of caffeine and sugar. Need to get my butt in the shower.

Could be emotional exhaustion from parenting. Short version of ongoing B drama. Big blowup on kid's 19th birthday. He wanted to take the van to go party with all his old friends. This meaning 50 miles or so on I-95 and a bunch of running from one place to another at night. This after already wrecking 3 of my vehicles on neighborhood streets. I refused. He pounded the dashboard of my car breaking the vent and stormed out at an intersection. Didn't hear from him for a week, then of course when his bank account is at $.13 he writes an email that he was wrong, wants to come home. I responded that my issue was constantly being told I was forcing him to live in a shit hole. So, requesting he instantly turns about 30. I know he doesn't get it, but I would love to have him as well as peace and harmony in my home. It would seem I only get to have one and that means he needs to find another place to sulk. He has at least 10 homes of immediate family members as options so not quite as abandoned as his sorry ass acts.

Ok, maybe not such a short version. Wake up remedies kicking in. Time to shower.

{{Laura}} Oh, my, sending a healthy dose of maturity~ma to B. I remember some of those blow-ups with my daughter at that age, they are so taxing. I think you deserve a couple days of indoor pants to recuperate!

Now tagless for your comfort.

{{{Laura}}} I hope he gets it sooner, rather than later.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh Laura, I'm sorry.

Once I was out of mom's house at 18, we actually started getting along much better, and by 30 we got pretty close. Hoping he "gets it" sooner rather than later.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

{{{Laura}}} No advice, just hugs. That sounds gut-and-heart-twisting.
