At least one post per week

My stupid cousin, Dumbshit, went ahead and moved in with his girlfriend. She has a FEMA trailer in Lake Charles. He claims to have a job at American Eagle, but who knows for sure. Who gives a shit for that matter. As long as he's not stressin' my grandparents anymore I'm cool with it.
So I didn't have to go home and lay down the law after all. Everything worked itself out without me.
I am going down there this weekend though. But this time it's for my own personal interests. Cute girl I knew from high school has been calling. She's pretty sharp and has definitely got her shit together. Which means it probably won't work out...
And I had a second phone interview with the contract company in KC. They seem pretty interested. The money would be awesome and I wouldn't even have to move. I would be flying to jobs during the week and home most weekends. The only downside is that I'd have to do something with the dog. My aunt would probably take him.
I'm gonna get drunk at TGI Fridays tonight with the New Guy. He's looking at houses online right now. and for those of you who have been wanting the address to his blog, here it is. http://mymilkshakebrings.blogspot.com
DON'T LET HIM KNOW WHO SENT YOU!!!!!!!!
I don't think he knows that I know where his blog is.
Thats all for now. I know I neglect this blog but it's mine. I can do that.

Dysfunctional? us?

My father's brother, let's call him Sluggo, is a worthless no good piece of shit. Mooching burnout old man. He broke my grandmother's heart by dumping his youngest son, let's call him Dumbshit, on her when his current girlfriend refused to let him live with her anymore. He's currently being removed from the will.
His oldest son, let's call him Vidor, is 7 years older than me. I looked up to him and asked him for advice growing up. Now he's a covicted felon several times over doing 18-months in Tennessee Colony. Racist drug addict liar.
Dumbshit has been staying with my grandparents for the past year and causing all kinds of trouble. My dad gets really worked up about it when we talk about the situation.
My grandfather use to be a hardass. But nowadays he's getting softer. I'm not sure why.
Dumbshit managed to get himself kicked out of high school yesterday. He's 17 now and will turn 18 in April. This is the last straw.
My dad calls me last night and he's on the warpath.
"Get down here ASAP! We're putting an end to this bullshit!"
And he's right. It's time to stop coddling the lying little bastard thief. (He stole some speakers and DVDs from me when I was living out there.)
It's not like this is something new to the family. My great-grandfather had to raise Vidor when he was a kid. And look how well he turned out.
So I'm going back home this weekend to help sort this thing out. I pray that everything goes smoothly but the way my dad sounded last night... loud, angry words are going to be spoken. And I'll be damned if I let anyone lay a hand on my father.

Like Jerry Maguire...

.. I love black people. They know how to have a good time.
Saturday night was my buddy Al and his wife Susan's housewarming party. Their house is the bomb. I want to live there. I'll just sleep in the media room and help out with bills. I'll even cook sometimes. But I digress...
Back to the black folk.
Al plays softball with us. I'm not really sure how we all became friends since he's originally from Ohio, but it's not important. What's important is that Al and Susan use to live in an apartment complex where they were the only white couple. And being the friendly people that they are, they made lots of acquaintances with the black people there.
So a lot of them showed up for this party. And we had a blast.
The radio was up loud. People were shaking their booties, playing cards, playing dominoes, getting DRUNK. It was great.
I haven't got down like that in a long time. If they hadn't been there it definitely wouldn't have been as much fun.
I ended up making apple martinis for the women and slammin' bones with the boys. There were two black guys who pretty much ran the domino table from the get-go. No one could touch them.
Then me and Al whooped their ass. They couldn't believe a couple of honkey beat them at bones.
then we lost to two white girls. but it was only because they were hot and I couldn't concentrate. The short one kept shaking her ass in my face when it was my turn to go.

Also, the 40-year-old MILF who lives down the way stopped me last night as I walked Mak. She wanted to know how old I was and if I was single. Hmmmm.
I'm not sure what to do about this one.
the older the berry the sweeter the juice, right?

If you'd told me...

...at the beginning of this NFL season that I'd be sitting here on New Years Day pulling for the goddamn Eagles to beat the worthless motherfuckin' Redskins, I'd have laughed in your face.
But here I sit.
Go Eagles.
I'm beginning to rethink my stance on the T.O. suspension. Maybe they should've let him come back for the last game. That woulda been nice.
Just give us a chance here big green.
as I type this Akers kicks a long field goal to go up 3-0.
Cowboys fans around the world rejoice.

As for the New Years Eve party, it was fun but too expensive. A lot of hype. A lot of boozing. Some spooning with a random chick. No kissing at midnight. But it still beat the shit out of last year.
I read somewhere that washing dishes on New Years Day is bad luck so I'm not doing it. But man if ever there was a day that shit needed doing, it would be today.
