Sineater: think i missed part of that :/
Sineater: plan?
evile: I talked to Mom and Nana yesterday after work. Sunday is fine,
they don't have any plans that we need to work around, so we can show
up any old time.
evile: Mom says if Rubber_Pig's baby comes, she'll go to San Antonio right
away, but since I told Nana I was coming on Sunday, I will be there,
regardless.
Sineater: sounds good. did you have a time in mind?
Sineater: good idea
evile: Maybe we could aim for lunchtime-ish, take the ladies out for
a little lunch?
Sineater: nana will be happy to see you, too :)
Sineater: kk
evile: I know. I feel bad because I hardly ever see the Houston fam,
Sineater: question, would you be picking me up?
Sineater: well, me neither :( or at least not as often as i ought to
evile: If you are in Austin Saturday to work on the infernal trailer,
maybe you could pack an overnight bag and sleep over?
Sineater: hmm
evile: And then I take you back to R-dale Sunday?
evile: It's totally up to you. With sufficient planning, I can be
anywhere at any given time.
Sineater: that will work... we'll be at the trailer that evenig, then
probably out for dinner. i can be at your place after that
evile: Okeydoke.
evile: I will need to print out some directions before the weekend.
Sineater: kk
Sineater: say, we'll be at central market sat evening. they've had
good bands there last couple of times we've been. want to join us?
evile: Everytime I go to Houston, it looks different & I end up
feeling lost.
Sineater: same here!
evile: What time do you think you'll be at CM?
Sineater: probably 6 or 7 ish. when the light fails
evile: *nod*
Sineater: though, should warn you, it does get crowded when the band
starts, and we will have arthur there
evile: Not a fan of crowds, but I could make a try at it :)
Sineater: so far they haven't thrown us out :)
evile: I missed my CM fix on the 2nd
Sineater: it's not a huge crowd, but with the small patio it gets a
little cramped. so far though people have been polite
evile: that's good.
Sineater: ooh, heated patio, too! :)
evile: Yeah.
Sineater: las sat was a mariachi(esque) band, called son y no son.
they were interesting. played with the genres some. played different
latin, south american, and cuban stuff
Sineater: before that was some swing band that sang a lot about
cocaine :)
evile: Not my fave, but is usually lots more fun live than recorded.
Sineater: true
evile: So what else is going on in your world? How's prospects
w/ajilion?
Sineater: iffy... but they are supposed to have more stuff coming in
evile: *fingers crossed*
evile: I see a lot of activity on the Capital ARea Job Club, but it
seems they are postings for very specific kinds of things
(programming in XYZPDQ language only, etc.)
Sineater: nodnod
Sineater: tech jobs are out there, just a matter of catchnig them
evile: yeah.
evile: AMD might be posting someting in Sweetie's area soon. One of his
coworkers got into it with the supervisor and quit.
evile: it's in S. austin, so would be a hell of a commute for you,
though...
Sineater: shrug, if it pays enough :)
evile: There is that.
Sineater: occurs to me. if [the rubber pig] goes into [spawn] this
weekend, and K/Mom takes off, who's going to take care of nana?
evile: I guess we'll burn that bridge when we come to it.
evile: It may turn out to be a blessing in disguise that you're not
working FT right now...if it comes to that.
Sineater: for that matter, if [the rubber pig] goes into [spawn] any
time before some other arrangement is made, and K/Mom leaves, nana
will still be left alone
Sineater: umm. i do not wish to be put in that position. how am i
supposed to interview for austin jobs if i am in houston?
Sineater: but, you're right... we'll burn that bridge when we come to
it
evile: yup.
Sineater: besides, i can bet dad has already thoguht of that
possibility
evile: Mom said they were interviewing another home health person
today & she's really hoping this one works out.
Sineater: good! :)
Sineater: so hard to find good white help these days
evile: Mom made it sound like there was a $ issue too.
Sineater: i bet there was. i have no idea what nana's financial
situation is
Sineater: it's not that i would not stay, if that situation arose. i
would jsut prefer for that situation not to arise.
evile: I know Stepdad has been throwing $ at all of the Houston
relatives left and right- Kate's health stuff, etc.
evile: and supporting Mom while she does...whatever...
Sineater: nod
evile: I guess this is the suck part of being an adult, eh?
Sineater: he also got made nana's attorney in the event of. because
apparently neither katy nor Uncle B would do it.
Sineater: no kidding. is it too late to regress back to childhood?
evile: I'm sure that's frustrating for him. I can see Kate not
wanting to, since she's not in the best of health herself. But Uncle B
could have taken on that responsibility. (well, now he's overseas,
but in general)
Sineater: think kate may not have wanted to confront the possibility.
she has always handled things very well when she's had to. but,
sometimes she doesn't want to. i can understand that
Sineater: Uncle B in recent years (since his grand fucking over by teri)
seems to have regressed back to his own younger behavior, which
wasn't too different from Brother A's in a lot of ways
evile: Yeah...what is it about that younger brother syndrome?
Sineater: shrug
evile: Uncle Bubba's got it too....
Sineater: nod, true
evile: I would have said it's a 'baby' thing, but Brother A is the middle
child, and our 'baby' is out on her own, working and paying her own
way through college.
Sineater: i know. it seems to be specific to younger brothers...
thoguh in some families it's the younger sister, usually if there is
no younger brother
evile: *nod*
evile: very frustrating.
evile: well, crap. 4pm, time for me to get a move on.
Sineater: good luck :)
evile: I won't move too fast. ;P
evile: *hugs* talk at ya later!
Sineater: :*)
