    1. Accept others for who they are whether you like what they do or
    not, just as you want other to do to you. Defend their rights to be
    who they are as you would want others to defend your rights.

    2. Learn who you are and stand up for what you believe in, not what
    others tell you to believe in.

    3. Recognize everyone has faults and downfalls, even yourself.
    Strive to overcome yours and not blame not others for theirs.

    4. Learn not only from your own mistakes but everyone's.

    5. Think before acting.

    6. Honor the words you speak, the pledges you make and the
    agreements into which you enter to the best of your ability.

    7. Try to improve the lives of other's by improving yourself.

    8. Strive to make the best of every day.

    9. Find something to care about as absolute apathy breeds contempt,
    absolutely.

    10. Believe in yourself and do something every day you can be proud
    of.

    evile: yahoo sure is suckin' today. slow!!
    SkyeDS: mornin :)
    evile: how's work & stuff?
    evile: I talked with my mom on the phone last night, then I went to
    Krav Maga. I feel lots better about things today.
    SkyeDS: is good
    SkyeDS: sineater and I marvelled a little at things last night
    evile: Oh yeah?
    SkyeDS: well as you can imagine he isn't thrilled about any of this
    either, the lack of logic is rather inescapable
    evile: *nods*
    evile: Mom says The Rubber Pig is in a lot of pain, spends most of her waking
    time screaming and crying, Brother A is waiting on her hand and foot.
    They're getting rid of Brother A's dog because he 'trips' her :(
    evile: and supposedly the dog is also 'knocking down' the children. I
    am not buying that for one freaking second.
    SkyeDS: I am sorry about the screaming and crying pain, been there
    and done that, but I don't really understand why get rid of the dog,
    because I can think of other solutions
    SkyeDS: but it's none of my business
    evile: The Rubber Pig has been trying to get rid of the dog for a while, the
    last atttempt she made was because she was 'allergic'.
    SkyeDS: you know Larry, who is the manager over to the Guadalupe Half
    Price books
    SkyeDS: silver hair, silver eyes
    evile: no.
    SkyeDS: ok, well, the manager over to half price on guad is named
    larry, and he has silver hair and silver eyes
    evile: Ok
    SkyeDS: and he had an amazon for many, many years
    SkyeDS: and this woman married him
    SkyeDS: and then she decided to have a baby
    SkyeDS: so she made him sell his bird
    SkyeDS: then a year later, she divorced him and took the kid
    evile: That makes me so mad.
    SkyeDS: so now he has no woman, no kid, no bird
    SkyeDS: exactly
    SkyeDS: I sent you a funny about kids today
    evile: I got it :) very cute.
    evile: Now, if one parent sent that to another, it would be giggles
    all 'round and knowing looks. But if I posted that anywhere or sent
    it to anyone, it would be "oh, the bitter barren hag! For shame!"
    SkyeDS: why I didn't send it to anyone but you
    evile: heh. point.
    SkyeDS: I do try to operate somewhat appropriately, regardless of how
    often I fail and I'm sure people think I don't (because of my failure
    rate)
    evile: Well, I guess it'll be healthier for the kids to be out of a
    house where their mother is in constant crying screaming pain or
    passed out.
    But they love Paulie and they will be sad.
    SkyeDS: I wager that she will still be in crying screaming constant
    pain after the dog is gone
    SkyeDS: it isn't impossible or even hard to keep the dog away from her
    SkyeDS: what kind of dog are we talking about btw?
    evile: I don't know. Mutt. shorthaired, small-to-medium. There's one
    picture in my yahoo photo album that he's in. He was the ring bearer
    at their 'wedding'.
    SkyeDS: so we aren't talking about a rott, a pit, a chow or a dane,
    or anything big
    evile: nope.
    SkyeDS: then that's bullshit
    SkyeDS: and I am perfectly capable of separating it into its
    component issues, which are not intermingled
    SkyeDS: a) you can keep the dog away from her
    evile: indeed.
    if this works, the dog is the dark spot to Brother A's left, in front of
    the photographer:
    http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/eekatfreaksdotnet/detail?.dir=/8368&.
    dnm=819d.jpg
    SkyeDS: b) it is not a threat to the kids (unless it's biting)
    SkyeDS: c) I'm sorry she hurts
    evile: Supposedly theyr'e going back to the Dr. to try and manage her
    pain better. Maybe if that happens, Brother A will be able to cope with
    taking care of her and the kids both and Aunt L wont' get screwed.
    SkyeDS: Brother A just going to give his dog up just like that? even if
    they go back to the doctor and work something out successfully?
    evile: Who knows? Mom says he sounds utterly frazzled on the phone,
    probably isn't thinking straight. For all I know the dog's already
    gone.
    SkyeDS: sineater would sell me before he sold Arthur
    evile: Yeah...and if Sweetie ever made me choose between him and the
    cats, I sure would miss him...
    SkyeDS: we were approached by a breeder who pulled out a wad of
    hundreds and started counting t hem out, he offered us like 3 times
    what we paid for Arthur
    evile: jeez.
    SkyeDS: and sineater said, you can have her but you can't have Arthur
    SkyeDS: the breeder pocketed his cash and said she isn't worth that
    much
    SkyeDS: they both thought they were very funny
    evile: heh. I doubt you could be successfully bred to a parrot & lay
    eggs & such. If you try it, please NEVER tell me....
    SkyeDS: lol
    evile: The Rubber Pig told this very cute story about her youngest getting
    sick & in her little fevered state crying out for "Poi, poi!" (that's
    how she says "Paulie")
    evile: It's going to break their little hearts to lose him.
    SkyeDS: that's just wrong.
    evile: But nothing is about the kids well being or happiness,
    apparently. It'sa ll about The Rubber Pig. I'm sorry she's sick and I'm sorry
    she's h urting,but part of being a mom is sucking it up and doing
    what you can for your kids.
    SkyeDS: I'm sorry for her too
    SkyeDS: it isn't like I don't know what crying screaming pain is like
    SkyeDS: I DO know what it's like, and have found no reason to get rid
    of Arthur or the girls
    evile: I learned at an early age that crying and screaming just get
    you beat more, so I suck it up and dont' cry in front of people.
    SkyeDS: I wouldn't get rid of Arthur or the girls if I ended up
    quadriplegic
    evile: I don't get it. I feel bad for being so unsympathetic, but if
    it was me in her shoes, I just don't think I would be making the same
    decisions & I don't see how she can do it.
    SkyeDS: the issue with the dog has nothing to do with
    empathy/sympathy for her pain.
    SkyeDS: and it is a deliberately constructed strawman to tie the two
    together
    evile: well, like I said, she's been trying to get rid of Paulie for
    awhile now, since before the back injury.
    SkyeDS: it's like talking about some completely unrelated business at
    CMA and having the whiner say "but what about the chirren"
    evile: I can see it very clearly, but obviously I'm not being worn to
    a frazzle dealing with 3 kids and a wife in pain.
    evile: I just hate it that Brother A is being taken advantage of and Aunt L
    is being taken advantage of and those poor little kids are stuck
    dealing with consequences of decisions they can't make for themselves
    yet...
    SkyeDS: making a man and/or kids get rid of a beloved companion is
    just wrong
    evile: yeah. I understand they are living in a small space, but
    surely there's a way to keep him from getting underfoot when she
    leaves the bed...
    SkyeDS: is the space too small to have her in one room and the dog
    anywhere but that room?
    SkyeDS: because if it is they have no business having 3 children in
    that space either
    evile: Nobodys' been invited over, but I am under the impression it's
    a 2 bedroom apt.
    evile: Kids in 1, The Rubber Pig & Brother A in the other, Trey on the couch (?)
    evile: Well, from what I can tell, The Rubber Pig has no business having 3
    kids, Brother A has no business playing 'husband' and 'father' in this non-
    legal unofficial union, and everyone should just part and call it a
    day. But that's just me.
    evile: And, as you know, any idiot with a uterus can open her legs
    and squirt out as many screaming kids as she wants, and it's wrong to
    impose any sort of limits on someone's reproductive freedom, whether
    they can afford to raise them or not.
    SkyeDS: nonlegal unofficial?
    SkyeDS: I thought they got married
    evile: they had a ceremony. There is no divorce from Trey, there is
    no marriage license.
    evile: Okay, I think I figured out what bugs me, or maybe I'm just
    rephrasing: You are familiar with screamng crying pain, you have your
    share of health problems, but unlike The Rubber Pig, you do not demand every
    bit of sineater's time and attention over it to the neglect/exclusion of
    your children.
    SkyeDS: wtf
    SkyeDS: I'm even familiar with being a whinybaby and wanting to be
    taken care of (I do my fair share of that and probably more than)
    evile: You go lay up with your heating pad, ice pack, meds, hot tea,
    whatver, and tell sineater "Go spend time with the kids, take care of our
    babies" and that's that. You know when to suck it up and make sure
    your other mutual responsibilities are taken care of.
    evile: I dont' see/hear of The Rubber Pig doing that.
    evile: You and sineater both place the health/happiness of Arthur and the
    horses above your own. You know they depend on you for everything,
    and you honor that responsibility.
    SkyeDS: but they are the centers of our lives
    SkyeDS: which many people criticize us for
    SkyeDS: wtf is with this no divorce and no marriage license
    SkyeDS: and why then some ceremony before her surgery
    SkyeDS: she sounds like a new age white light fluffy bunny fruitcake
    evile: [dad] is writing (or has written) Brother A a letter demanding
    details. I think that's a bad idea...it's just going to make The Rubber Pig
    mad and Brother A defensive.
    evile: She was worried that she would not be able to walk after the
    surgery, so wanted wedding photos that reflected her standing up.
    SkyeDS: I can empathize with [dad], and you are undoubtedly right
    evile: As far as I'm able to without playing babysitter/ATM/doormat,
    I am going to try and stay on good terms with The Rubber Pig & Brother A...Brother A
    needs support wherever he can get it at this point.
    SkyeDS: for fucks sake! it sounds like to me, she has less reasoned
    maturity than either you or I had at the tender age of what, 5?
    SkyeDS: Brother A can't live like that for long, he will need people to
    turn to and places to go when he has his epiphany
    evile: She is very childlike. For the most part, it's a charming
    trait. She and Brother A have a lot of fun.
    evile: And I guess as long as Trey doesn't mind hanging around
    being 'daddy' for these two kids, things will be just great. But, her
    health is putting a dent in their fun, bigtime, and I imagine Trey
    will get tired of his grownup role shortly.
    SkyeDS: this turns me into my mother
    SkyeDS: glasses off, brows knit, eyes shut, rubbing bridge of nose
    painfully, going, wtf?
    SkyeDS: well...not the wtf part, that's me
    evile: their situation? Making you say uncharacteristic disapproving
    socialite Taurus things? heh. Maybe your mom knew what the heck she
    was talking about at some point... :P
    SkyeDS: I suspect both my geminian aspects and my taurian aspects are
    offended
    SkyeDS: it offends both logic and responsibility
    evile: This makes no sense to me. I understand that Brother A is 100%
    committed, divorce/marriage or not. He believes it's real, so to him
    it really IS.
    SkyeDS: ok, but why be stupid about it
    evile: Brother A "Gravity only works on other people" []? stupid?
    heh.
    evile: I love him to death and beyond, I would kill or die for
    him...but the boy aint' got the common sense god gave sawdust
    SkyeDS: sawdust lol
    evile: tell me I'm wrong... Brother A absolutely refuses to learn from
    others' mistakes, or extrapolate any sort of cause & effect in his
    own life. He barely learns from his own mistakes.
    SkyeDS: he just strikes me as having never grown up in many ways
    evile: "Brother A, see the bodies at the bottom of this cliff? Many people
    have attempted this jump. None have made it."
    "Oh, but I will!" says little Brother A. "those other people just didn't
    know as much about jumping off cliffs as *i* do!"
    SkyeDS: nods
    evile: The boy makes me crazy. It was one thing when it was his own
    life to fuck up, but now he's got others to think of....who, IM
    (barren hag)O need to take precedence
    SkyeDS: poor kids (and poor dog)
    evile: yup.
    evile: Oh well. Aunt L gets them Wednesday (Brother A & The Rubber Pig are driving
    them up) and I will then begin a countdown to the day she calls me to
    take them off her hands because she's going nuts...
    SkyeDS: nods
    evile: Mom thinks that Aunt L isn't telling her the whole
    situation....I have no idea . I'm concerned because I haven't heard
    an *end* date to this little 'taking care of the kids for a while'
    thing...
    SkyeDS: I'm sure she hasn't
    SkyeDS: I'm sure she knows how bad what little she has said sounds to
    the rest of us
    evile: And I'm concerned because Brother A & his family have *no* legal
    right to these children. The Rubber Pig could decide at any time to yank them
    away, file charges, make shit up, whatever....if she got
    crazy/vengeful enough....
    SkyeDS: hadn't even thought about that :(
    evile: ironically, the point came to me when I was talking with Aunt L
    about the [x] children. She advised me against spending any
    further time with them because X could coach them to allege abuse,
    etc. and really fuck me over.
    evile: And now Aunt L is putting herself in a similar (but not
    identical,of course) situation....so I have to throw her advice back
    in her face at some point, I guess....
    SkyeDS: would prefer to think of it as returning it gently...
    evile: well, who knows how it will be taken? I'll mention it as
    tactfully as I can manage (not good at tact) and see what happens...
    evile: Uncle Bubba was right, Brother A is getting the Kosher Shnitzel.
    And so is Aunt L :(
    SkyeDS: and not a damn thing we can do to stop it
    evile: nope. Oh, I just remembered one more thing. This will curl
    your hair: apparently they're filing a lawsuit against the dr. who
    did the back surgery and are going to make millions. Do they know how
    much $ it will take to 'win' their suit? Do they realize how long a
    malpractice suit can drag on? NUTS! they are both so 'pie in the
    sky' it makes me crazy!
    evile: But to Brother A & The Rubber Pig that lawsuit is already money in the bank!
    SkyeDS: just put your head down on your desk
    SkyeDS: it will make everything better.
    evile: *headdesktequilashot*
    evile: As a legal professional, with your current area of practice,
    I'm sure you know even more about such things than I do...and even I
    know that this is like people in hell wanting ice water...
    evile: sue a doctor because he did such a good job on your back that
    he reduced your hospital recovery time from a month to 2 days? yeah...
    evile: a surgery that 'the story' said 'might' leave her crippled,
    and she's walking? and able to make a car trip to & from Austin
    tomorrow to dump her kids? I dont' think she has ground 1 for a suit.
    evile: Yes, the problems with pain management are distressing, but
    nowhere approaching malpractice at this point...
    SkyeDS: they won't have problems finding a lawyer
    evile: with what $$?
    SkyeDS: probably contingency, a usurious 33 1/3%
    SkyeDS: "you don't pay us until we win"
    SkyeDS: at least two years in litigation
    evile: well, after they win, 10 years from now, they certainly will
    be 'set for life' won't they? *headdesktequilashot*
    SkyeDS: and no way in hell they'll win unless she turns up lame for
    life
    evile: as far as I can tell, shes ambulatory. Not much beyond bed to
    toilet and back, but if she's making the car ride to Austin tomorrow,
    it can't be that bad....
    SkyeDS: I doubt they intend to play this honestly
    evile: no way they could win if they were honest.
    evile: Seems so very WRONG to put a competent surgeon through
    something like that....
    SkyeDS: it is. detrimental to a good surgeon and all his other
    patients
    evile: *sigh*
    evile: Oh well. [cousin B] might come to the picnic Sunday if he can get a
    ride up :) That'll be fun.
    evile: And I've been seeing a lot of nice big 'gypsy' earrings at
    Target & Claires & such lately.
    SkyeDS: haven't gone shopping in a long while
    SkyeDS: I want to buy a corset like yours
    SkyeDS: just have to put mine up on ebay
    evile: I am hoping that when I'm done with Krav Maga, I'll be a good
    size to shop again. Right now, it's pretty depressing.
    evile: Sunshine dragged me into Hot Topic on Sunday, and tried to
    talk me into trying on a bodice...I just couldn't do it.
    SkyeDS: you could be custodian of my corsets for as lon gas you
    wanted them
    SkyeDS: but I doubt you're that big
    evile: I have no idea. My proportions have changed lately.
    SkyeDS: the black one is a 40 and the purple and red ones are 38s
    evile: I've been keeping up with taking my measurments 1ce a month,
    and weighing in about every 2 weeks, but I really don't want to
    translate that into clothing sizes at this point.
    SkyeDS: the purple and red ones have never been worn either
    evile: Can probably sell them on ebay for more by keeping them unworn.
    SkyeDS: if you don't like them can't wear them yep
    evile: well, we should definitely get together & try on at some point
    then :)
    SkyeDS: nodnod
    evile: Maybe if you still don't have plans for Sat. July 3...that's
    your next free weekend, right? We can try on, mallrat, whatever,
    whatever.?
    SkyeDS: yepyep
    evile: Well, pencil it in & unless you get a better offer, we're on
    for July 3 :)
    SkyeDS: k :)
    evile: That night is the monthly Voyagers party, too, if the topic
    turns out to be of interest or whatever ;)
    evile: Just got a note from J-Law. Looks like we're all on the same
    page re: Paulie:

    Not to be a nag, but I think Brother A needs some "official encouragement"
    (i.e., arm-twisting and browbeating) to find another home (permanent
    or
    foster) for the dog rather than surrender him/her to the animal
    shelter.
    Owner-surrendered pets often get only 24 hours before they get
    euthanized, especially in crowded shelters.

    If that dog dies as a result of his spinelessness, I will never be
    able
    to look Brother A in the eye again as long as I live.

    SkyeDS: amen!!!
    evile: I think I will ask Uncle B to bring up that topic w/Brother A. I
    honestly don't think I could talk about it without either getting mad
    or crying.
    SkyeDS: you and Sweetie could take the dog temporarily or we could, or
    maybe Aunt L & Uncle B could
    SkyeDS: if I were Aunt L, I'd offer to take the dog and not the kids
    <shrug>
    evile: Thank you :) I will tell Aunt L & Uncle B that. I'm with you.
    Paulie's a very sweet dog, very submissive & shy...I can't imagine
    him being as much of a rambunctious nuisance Brother A/The Rubber Pig says he's
    being.
    SkyeDS: wouldn't satisfy Sweetie's craving for a puppy or would it
    evile: nope. He doesn't like Paulie.
    SkyeDS: damn, that would have been a tidy solution
    evile: But I'm sure that Sweetie would agree that us taking the dog
    temporarily is better than euthanizing him...
    evile: We've done that, we know that SUCKS. even when the dog is old
    and in pain and there's no other choice...
    evile: I will call Aunt L as soon as I get home & let her know that
    there are some options for Paulie. He loved it out in NM, running in
    the big fields. He's used to being a country dog.
    SkyeDS: could probably give him to my neighbors, who are in the pet
    sitting business and have a large family of dogs already
    evile: not the people with mange?
    SkyeDS: no no
    evile: good :)
    SkyeDS: Connie & Wayne, the friendly ones
    evile: Paulie had a 'pack' in NM, was very happy. Was very unhappy to
    come to the city with a little yard and no pack. Was happy again to
    have the kids be his new 'pack'.
    SkyeDS: he'd have a pack and 10 acres to run around on (not counting
    my 11 where he's also welcome)
    evile: I will convey your offer. I'm sure Brother A will be very grateful,
    not to mention L&B for not having to accept that burden along with
    the kids.
    evile: It's been a while, but I think the reason we couldn't take
    Paulie last time this came up ("allergies") is because he jumps and
    we dont' have much of a fence on one side of our back yard. I'll have
    to ask Sweetie to refresh my memory...but I think that was the problem.
    SkyeDS: no fences there for him to jump
    SkyeDS: and Connie doesn't let them out without direct supervision
    ever
    evile: very cool.
    evile: I know I am assuming too much evil & Macchiavellian aspects to
    her, but I'm wondering if The Rubber Pig is just testing to see how much she
    can get Brother A to give up for her... or seeing if she can get him to
    kill Paulie 'for her'....
    SkyeDS: regardless of what her intention or lack thereof, the result
    to Paulie is the same
    evile: exactly.
    evile: I have no signal on my cell at work today, or I'd call now. I
    think Uncle B is the best person to mention Paulie alternatives because
    he's the best at being tactful, telling people what needs to be said,
    without putting them on the defensive & getting them all stubborn &
    assy in the process.
    SkyeDS: nods
    evile: I feel all cowardly & hypocritical for not calling Brother A
    directly...but I just don't trust myself to be reasonable, and from
    what Mom says, he's frazzled enough already without getting any crap
    from bossy big sister knowitall.
    SkyeDS: use the right tool for the job, if you care about doing the
    job right
    evile: Uncle B definitely has better communication skills than me.
    SkyeDS: yepyep
    SkyeDS: better than you me and sineater probably
    evile: (like, that's his job and stuff...so, yeah.)
    evile: sineater or I might be tempted to smack him somewhere along with
    all our good intentions & advice.... :(
    SkyeDS: and I would be tempted to hand you the frying pan
    evile: heh. I might even be tempted to use it. But no amount of
    pounding has gotten any sense into his head as of yet, and I've been
    pounding a good while now...
    SkyeDS: nods
    evile: *sigh* happy thoughts happy thoughts...trying very hard to
    have happy thoughts....
    evile: I really hope Sunday turns out well. I need to go to the
    grocery store tonight & get started collecting ingredients. Not
    tomention we need regular stuff now, too. Cats ran out of crunchies
    this a.m. and I dont' want them doing hte 'out of crunchies' dance on
    my head at 3 a.m.
    SkyeDS: lol
    evile: "it's the end of the world! We're starving to death! How can
    you sleep at a time like this!? Meow meow!"
    SkyeDS: feed dogs, they think you're god. feed cats, they think
    they're god.
    evile: heh, it's true.
    evile: And who knows,maybe they're right. I'm sure I was a priest/ess
    of Bast in some past life, otherwise why would I have chosen once
    again to serve cats in this one? :)
    SkyeDS: I was probably a priestess of Hathor and Shamu in past livfes
    SkyeDS: (cow, whale)
    evile: :P quit that.
    SkyeDS: :P
    evile: Hathor was a pretty big time goddess in her time, and from
    what I understand the killer whale has a big place in the Pacific
    Northwest peoples' spirituality.
    evile: And you've already mentioned the whole Venus of Willendorf
    thing. Just because you're not fitting today's standards
    of ...whatever...does not mean jack. Be happy, be healthy,do whatever
    you need to do to be both of those things, and everybody else can go
    piss up a rope.
    SkyeDS: otay :)
    evile: Only got so long on this planet this life...so it's not enough
    time to please everyone, ya know?
    SkyeDS: yep
    evile: Nice thing about being in my 30s--I find myself really
    honestly caring very little for the opinions of most people.
    evile: I do want to be healthier though...hopefully the Krav Maga
    will help (unless it kills me...)
    SkyeDS: I noticed low carb microwave meals
    SkyeDS: we only started talking about them what five years ago?
    SkyeDS: $3.50 ea
    evile: heh. If only we'd had the resources to design & market such,
    we'd be set for life now...
    evile: what gets me is they arent' all that low carb...when you read
    the actual carb counts on some of the boxes.
    evile: You can get regular micro. lunches that are just as LC as the
    ones labeled that way.
    evile: same with other products. LC peanut butter=5 carbs and $4 a
    jar. regular PB, 7carbs and $2. lotsa $ for only 2 fewer carbs...
    evile: When I put together my own LC lunches, it's about 6-7 carbs.
    about half to a third of the carbs in the prepkged 'LC' lunches
    SkyeDS: 10 lc foods in the store last year as opposed to more than
    1550 this year
    SkyeDS: according to Time
    evile: that's pretty amazing.
    SkyeDS: Time is always the last to find out, about anything lol
    SkyeDS: hm. yahell was hacked this morning.
    evile: aha. That might explain the wacky slowness of everything there
    today.
    evile: seems better this afternoon.
    SkyeDS: yep
    evile: I thought it was slow because of the email upgrade they did...
    evile: brb, gotta take an appeal in the lobby.
    evile: that wasn't so bad...
    evile: just someone wanting to turn in their appeal by hand. Last
    time i went down, the guy wanted me to hold his hearing right then &
    there...
    SkyeDS: yuck
    evile: we get all the crazies :P
    evile: he had driven all the way to Austin from Houston, too. I felt
    pretty bad about it...but RTF determination...it says right there at
    the bottom what to do, yaknow?
    SkyeDS: nods
    evile: I really do think we need State Black Ops...kill all the
    people too stupid to function in society.
    evile: well, hallelujia! It's about time for me to scoot on out of
    here. :)
    SkyeDS: :)
    evile: Thanks so much for letting me bitch. I feel a lot better now
    that Paulie has some options. The rest of Brother A's life can go down the
    shitter but it seems the innocents in this will be protected.
    SkyeDS: make phone call minute you get home, nods
    evile: Will do. *hugs* thanks again :)
    SkyeDS: Hugs :)

    They liked their little photo pendants (how could any narcissist
    NOT!?) and wanted me to make one for their officiant.

    Neither of them let me get in a word edgewise, I was really needing
    to ask about Paulie.

    She said soemthing about Brother A being a shmuck, and I said "Yeah, be
    sure and say ugly things about my brother in front of me, because I
    like that" and then they both backpedaled about how the people at
    exxon call her the crazy psychotic jewish bitch and it's a term of
    affection, and that's how she means it about Brother A. I said "well, OK,
    whatever, but please don't ever call me an ugly name because it will
    just hurt my feelings"

    Apparently I also resemble her sister...Carli? or something, who does
    not get along with her.

    She says she is trying not to prejudge Skye_ds,and I did my best to
    assure her and Brother A that Skye_ds has made a lot of progress and is
    trying really hard to make nice with sineater's family. (harder than sineater
    is at this point) And then she said something about if she heard
    Skye_ds talking down to sineater she would have to say something, because
    sineater is Brother A's family, and Skye_ds isn't really--see, she considers
    sineater and Skye_ds to be "not really married" because Skye_ds does not
    obey sineater. And by that same token, she's really married to Brother A
    because she shut up once when [stepdad] was on the phone with Brother A and
    told Brother A to tell The Rubber Pig to shut up. *bwahhaha!*

    Lots of silly little yiddish words for 'color', to convince me of her
    Jewishness.

    And more than one mention of her 'devout faith'

    bwahahah! Because ALL good Jewish women are married to one guy and
    pretending to be married to another guy living with both of them. And
    Trey had NO idea what a "Get" was/is (a Jewish divorce is called
    a "Get") So nobody's buying the 'jewish' act here.

    Oh, and apparently they are trying to get Trey out of the house,
    and 'circulating' more so he can 'expand his circle'. Okaaay,
    whatever. And they might all be coming to the picnic on Sunday.

    She went off on this bizarre tangent about how much she and Brother A have
    been through and how she has faith that there are good things ahead,
    and their lives are so full of bounty (this after, not 15 minutes
    before, Brother A said they called me because they were waiting for Trey
    to get home so they could go eat free hotdogs at Exxon)

    It's all so godawful. I'd laugh if I wasn't so pissed off and sad...
