Cornflakes down my shirt

kyburgFeels like, really. If I actually had some cornflakes, I'd have lunch.
Yes, I'm still lunchless. Go me.
I've decided I can't make a LJ Tarot Card - I don't know which suit I am. *blows air* The last time I did a bona fide tarot reading it was about six months after Cliff had passed away, and was a reading for the next year.
Everything was pretty cool and reassuring, but the "friends/family/in the future" spot held the Devil, reversed.
And inside of a week or so, life got that strange, with a small subset of friends. No thanks. Not going to name names.
But, it fucked EVERYTHING up. So far, for some people, permanently. Not that everything crashed and burned, but I surely learned the limits of my tolerance for intolerance...and patience. Much patience.
So no, no tarot card. Not for a while. Clueless, I am. VERY.
*sigh* If Jim and I keep spending all the time we have together in the car driving to work, we will kill each other. We'll just snap and suddenly beat each other senseless with Game Boy Advance cartridges and empty Starbucks cups. Mean it.
If all goes well, the house will be on the market September 11th. Somehow, this works for me. Yeah.
I've also asked Jim to tell work to give him some weekend time for us to look at houses. I think he may get it. Heaven knows we'll need it. The idea that I will actually get to pick the next house I live in is both thrilling and scary as hell.
No, I didn't pick the house I'm in now. I've been very good at finding places to live, but no - never got to choose The Place before.
God, don't let me settle for less. Not this time.
And I am so, so, so tired of little whiney little boys. *Counts on fingers.* Three, this week alone. Gah, they actually think I'm going to expend the energy to give a rip. If they don't care enough to help themselves, nothing I do will matter. Ever.
Tired, I am. One hopes they will figure it out.

Re: Third time
Date: 2002-09-10 03:57 pm (UTC)Ah, if it were that simple. You can't do that to family. There's always someone who wants to play martyr - and in this case, it's his mother. And I feel sorry for those who have to deal with her, don't you?
Oh, I know I allow this. It is my choice to have this opinion. However, I'm also of the mind to set some boundaries on what I will and won't consider acceptable. And willfull stupidity is up with with dishonesty and some other sins of vanity we don't need to go into yet.
Somebody will have to clean up the mess, after all. I hate messes. ^^

No, I don't particularly feel sorry for them. I personally choose not to deal with martyrs. And they could make a similar choice if it really bothered them that much to deal with her. As I said before, it really IS that simple. We just don't like doing things the simple way.
