Oh, Teppy, I'm glad that Tim is able to be firm and set limits for this boy-in-man's-clothing.
Maria, I'm so sorry to hear that there wasn't any better news for your uncle. ~ma for him and for your father, and for the whole family. How heartbreaking. Fuck cancer.
that car has got to go.
If he can come up with the money -- from his mom, grandpa, someone else -- to be able to rent the U-Haul AND the trailer, then I don't care if the car stays. I just want whatever will get him out of here quickest to happen.
(That said, I am not heartless: before I left for work, I put pillows and a comforter on the couch, because I didn't know if he'd be coming to the house after jail to sort through his stuff, and I assumed that he might be needing a long-ass nap, since jail does not seem to be restful.) (As of this morning, he was NOT coming to our house today. I don't know if that's because Tim warned him that I might rip his pancreas out with my teeth, or what.)
I'm caught up but out of lunch break so I'll just say - what WindSparrow said.
Proof that the universe has a sense of humor: the first song that came up on shuffle on my iPod? Lyle Lovett. "That's Right (You're Not From Texas)."
May Tim's soon pop up "All my Ex-s Live in Texas" (with their sons)
Well, the Lyle Lovett song? Goes "That's right; you're not from Texas, but Texas wants you anyway."
IT BETTER FUCKING WANT HIM.
Steph, I hope that all of this gets resolved soon.
Maria, much ~ma to your uncle, your father, you and all your family.
Marie my best to your family. I'm sorry
Oh, Maria. I wish it had been better news.
Ack, I didn't mean to x-post over Maria's news. My thoughts and prayers are with your family, especially your uncle and your dad, and YOU.
