happy(ha!) day, folks (with Van Halen)

I’vew been busy… so exuce me for not posting for a while.

Well, today is a day for family. I found out what that means, precisely… at least on the red-headed stepchild side.

No food– NONE– for me, nor for my four year old. my wife got dessert…

so, the cold shoulder.

We should be used to it. We crave peace, we crave understanding.  

I went for my father, whos old and ill, and not all there mentally. I did NOT go to be criticized for being fat, or to hear how other family members had ‘inherited’ the business.

I am done. I’m having a meal tomorrow for my family– and my brother, and his son, and if i can reach her, the lady who raised me 50 years ago… and we’ll give thanks.

Unlike my bood, or half-blood…  appendages.

After this long, I shouldn’t be surprised.

Happy day after thanksgiving, folks, because this day is not pretty.

THINK ABOUT THOSE MORE UNFORTUNATE THAN ME. I’ll get over it.

  1. But the Van Halen is nice…

    Illegitimi non carborundum, my brother!

  3. check it out…

  4. More in the spirit of your day today…?

  5. A woman I work with has an obnoxious FIL and he loves to comment on her weight. Every time he sees her he makes little digs: say have you put on a few pounds…

    She tired of it so the next time she saw him and he made his nasty crack she said,” Well, I guess I can lose some weight but can you grow your hair back?”

    Never ask a woman if she is pregnant or if she has gained weight. If you are single you have completely ruined your chances of ever having sex with her and in the very least you will always be remembered as that jerk.

    Sorry about your family gathering…there’s always something within every family.  It would take volumes to describe the group I married into.  Sheesh!

    But I’ll spare you the details, for now!  

    Take it easy and don’t be shy!
