so against my better judgement <\/span><\/strong>
\n
I leave work<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and pick up my mother…aka the VOD <\/span><\/strong>
\n
and my nephew <\/span><\/strong>
\n
and we drive in the little red ladybug<\/span><\/strong>
\n
up to Courtenay <\/span><\/strong>
\n
to spend Thanksgiving <\/span><\/strong>
\n
with my bother<\/span><\/strong>
\n
his new partner<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and my neice <\/span><\/strong>
\n

\n
I’d rather lay on the couch <\/span><\/strong>
\n
and fight the cold <\/span><\/strong>
\n
I have been fighting<\/span><\/strong>
\n
courtesy of the VOD<\/span><\/strong>
\n
but I digress<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

so we get her<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and the woman my bother <\/span><\/strong>
\n
is now living with<\/span><\/strong>
\n
is half lit <\/span><\/strong>
\n
and shit wouldn’t melt in her mouth<\/span><\/strong>
\n
she does however take several shots <\/span><\/strong>
\n
at the fadder<\/span><\/strong>
\n
although<\/span><\/strong>
\n
the fadder ain’t here<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>to defend himself…<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
I figure that’s odd<\/span><\/strong>
\n
but I’ll hold back judgement<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
we go to bed<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and get up this morning<\/span><\/strong>
\n
to a war zone<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
she’s pissed at my bother <\/span><\/strong>
\n
and slamming doors<\/span><\/strong>
\n
washing floors<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and shreiking<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
I says to my bother<\/span><\/strong>
\n
on an aside<\/span><\/strong>
\n
“this is the first time<\/span><\/strong>
\n
I’ve been in your home<\/span><\/strong>
\n
since she moved in<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and frankly<\/span><\/strong>
\n
I don’t see much difference<\/span><\/strong>
\n
between being here with her<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and being here with your ex <\/span><\/strong>
\n
either way <\/span><\/strong>
\n
we are made to be <\/span><\/strong>
\n
uncomfortable”<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
he says<\/span><\/strong>
\n
“funny how that works”<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
I says…”there’s an answer in there”<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
he says “ya me!”<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
I swear….<\/span><\/strong>
\n
if my mother was awake<\/span><\/strong>
\n
we’d be going back to Victoria<\/span><\/strong>
\n
right now<\/span><\/strong>
\n
cos he’s gone to work for the day<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and she’s locked herself in her bedroom…<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
this ain’t what I signed on for!<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
but again<\/span><\/strong>
\n
it has me ask the question<\/span><\/strong>
\n
what the fuck is it about people<\/span><\/strong>
\n
that makes them so sure that they need <\/span><\/strong>
\n
to be in a relationship?<\/span><\/strong>
\n
what is so lacking in the bother’s life<\/span><\/strong>
\n
that he’s got to move some shrew<\/span><\/strong>
\n
into his house<\/span><\/strong>
\n
just to not have to sleep alone?<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
I don’t get it?<\/span><\/strong>
\n
and I no longer think <\/span><\/strong>
\n
that it’s a problem in the way I think<\/span><\/strong>
\n
I know it’s not<\/span><\/strong>
\n
cos I’m not living like this….<\/span><\/strong>
\n
<\/span><\/strong>
\n
Happy Thanksgiving <\/span><\/strong>
\n
I think.<\/span><\/strong>
