He's been working lately on some kind of publishing company he is starting up doing like ebooks and website design and what not so he is too busy with that to work on a comic.

BK I'm so sorry for your loss.

Whoa! I'd be kicking myself.

I'm sorry, bk. That's rough.

Nebb, how long would it take him to do this comic? He should take up the offer, busy or not. Who knows what it could lead to.

I'm going freakin insane here. I can't handle doing QC anymore. The mistakes are endless, people aren't following any rules or taking any feedback seriously, and the overall laziness is a waste of my effing time. Plus this system constantly crashes my old-ass computer. I'm refusing to do QC tomorrow. I want to go back to writing.

Also, the irrirating guy nex to me keeps making a weird cough-sigh and it's pissing me off.

aw Les- you are not invisible to us. You are one of the amazing ladies I met here who make a difference in my every day life. I always love talking to you and hearing from you!

[Deleted User] · August 2012

Haha, I just read an article on Yahoo where Ryan Lochte's mom said in an interview that he doesn't date because he "only has time for one-night stands."

WTF. Either that doesn't mean what she thinks it means or she just called her son a player and laughs it off. I'd be so embarrassed if my mom went out and basically said I was sleeping around.

Morning guys. So sorry about your anniversary Les

You are not less than nothing. Please know that.

Sounds like its a shitty day for lots of us. I texted my BFF this morning to tell her that I don't think I can come to her bach party. I just can't afford it - between all the surprise expenses we've had (like 3 trips to the damn vet, my orthodontic bullshit, plus my car insurance and NOW I need new tires - and plus all that drama with the shower) I just can't really justify spending any extra money where I could avoid it. I feel terrible, because she is my best friend. But yeah, I just can't. I also texted MOHzilla about it (we were supposed to be sharing a hotel for the bach party, it's a camping party and she doesn't want to camp) but haven't heard back from her. I'm not looking forward to hearing from her. She'll try to talk me into it or offer me money or something. I just want to be left thefuck alone about this.

And my mom told me last night that my uncle (my mom's brother) had lunch with my aunt (my mom's sis - the alcoholic I haven't posted about in forever) recently and he believes she is knocking at death's door. She's in terrible physical condition - niacin deficiency, going blind, thinner than ever and all this other stuff. And also, she told my uncle she doesn't want to be with her homeless bum boyfriend anymore and wants her H back. I doubt this will happen now. I am very upset about this. I love her and want to reach out to her but don't think it will do any good for anyone. My grandma and my mom talked about what's going to happen when she dies. Grandma says "I guess we'll just get her cremated and have no service." And my mom is like "Well since she's still married, it's not really your problem, it's her husband's" and Grandma is like "Oh, oh yeah, that's great." Like it's just... no big deal? I don't know. I feel icky and sad and weird about everything.

I wish I could go home and just go back to bed.

Ugh AATB, that's sad.

Girlie1030 · August 2012

Wow, this week has just sucked like a Dyson for a lot of us at one point or another. Hugs to everyone wading through the muck.

I found out last night that my mom has to get her gallbladder removed in a few weeks so I'm a little nervous about that. I'm sure she'll be fine, but at her age and with her other health issues, I worry.

jennamarie10 · August 2012

I'm sorry, AATB, about your aunt. Has to be miserable to watch and go through.

Maybe you can make up the bach party thing to your BFF someday in a smaller way, take her to get a pedicure before the wedding or something? My silly friends are doing 2 bach parties for our girlfriend, and they are both expensive. I'm REALLY hoping her second one isn't going to put me in the red, her sis is planning it and I think it's going to be one of those things at the end of the night- "Hey all the BMs are splitting the cost of the party bus and Bride's drinks-you owe me $50."

AllAboutTheBenjamin · August 2012

Haha yeah... if I'm not willing to spend a few bucks on some drinks and a campsite I'm definitely not getting her a pedicure.

I got her a nice gift for the wedding. She'll have to just have that. lol.

mehgank · August 2012

I'm so sorry, AATB. I just have no words; it's so sad. ::hugs:: My heart goes out to you and your family.

I think we should all go home and go back to bed. We have an Rx for an SB sleepover, for sure.

Brandi0714 · August 2012

AATB- I'm sorry to hear about what's going on with your Aunt. I"ll be thinking about you guys!

AllAboutTheBenjamin · August 2012

I dont know jcb. My mom was saying last night that we can't legally commit her since she's an adult and I had to explain to her that in order for us to get her to go to rehab we just have to make it impossible for her behavior to continue so she has no other choice. Her H still pays for the apartment, so we'd have to get him to stop doing that - which I'll be honest, I don't think it will happen. Have to stop allowing her to have her son around. Stop giving her any money whatsoever, put her out on the street. My mom seemed to understand and agree with this, but it doesn't sound like the family will put effort into it. That's why I think she's just gonna die. The family is either addicted to just standing by - like my mom does - or addicted to enabling her, like my uncle (her H, not my mom's bro) or my grandparents. I think she's not the only one in need of treatment here. I wanted to do this a year ago but I don't even think I have the energy now. I hate to say it but my hope for her is that there will be some miracle by which she does go to rehab, or that she just dies. Either way the suffering has to end somehow.

LesPaul · August 2012

I'm sorry, AATB. {{hugs}} to you and your family.

AllAboutTheBenjamin · August 2012

I mean - I would think that since she's still alive there should be hope. But I can't see how.

AllAboutTheBenjamin · August 2012

Thank you rachers. And thank you everyone, really. It means so much.
