Painted the Town Red!!! During dinner tonight, Pops turns to me and says, "You and PIC should go out tonight. I'll stay home with DJ." Wow! You don't have to tell me twice. Called PIC. Arranged to meet out front around 8ish. Then I showered, got dressed, put on a little lip gloss, grabbed my coat and keys and raced out front for our rendezvous. Headed over to the local supermarket to do our weekly shopping. That's right, folks. Lock your doors. Close your blinds. Keep your men in the house. We are some WILD chicks. Friday, December 03, 2004
Why? Most days, I forget DJ has Asperger's. I don't know if it's because I've just dealt with it for so long. Maybe it's because it's just the two of us. Or it could be because I just love him so much that I will myself to ignore the little inconsistencies and the uniqueness. Some days it's just so hard. Today is one of those days. I can't make it better. I can't make it go away. I can't overlook it. I can't pretend it doesn't exist. It's one of those days I feel helpless. I'm his mother, why can't I help him???? It started with a spider. A simple spider combined with bloodcurdling screams, over and over and over. He wouldn't stop screaming. The spider didn't touch him. I killed the spider. The screams continued. Non-stop. Why? He couldn't stop screaming long enough to tell me why he was screaming. Screaming combined with him running through out home with stinkies hanging out of his butt. Then the screams turned to whimpers and I hushed all his fears away. Then started up again in full force when I tried to maneuver him in the shower to clean his butt. I couldn't take it anymore. He had to go in his room. Then he just continuously screamed about that. I'm unfair. I'm evil. I'm mean. Now he is sleeping peacefully, looking like the sweetest cuddliest little boy you'd ever imagine. I'm left upset and drained. Searching the internet for more news. more interventions. I'm starting to second guess myself. Did I do the right thing? Did I miss an all important step? Sometimes, being a mommy really sucks. Let There Be Light! Last night, I was sitting in my nicely lit kitchen doing homework. All thanks to Mr. Big. I was doing some homework and chatting with PIC on the phone. POP!!!! I start looking around. What was that? Then I look up. Cracked glass from one end of my light fixture to the other. I started thinking, do I REALLY want to deal with this tonight. But then I start worrying about DJ in the morning. What happens if it shatters? I decided not to take the risk, of course. I gave management a call to send someone out to take the glass down for me. Remember, the short thing? I was really hopin they'd send out Cute Guy to take the glass down for me. Evidently he wasn't the one on call last night. Instead his friend showed up. I really did feel bad that I made him come over here at 10:00 at night. I felt even worse when he mentioned he just moved into one of the townhouses (from an apartment) with his wife and kids. We started debating with each other about when the light was going to get fixed, either last night or today. I wanted him to get back to his family and do it during normal work hours. I lost. Then again, I won. He didn't have the light fixture I had. They had to wait until today to put it together. Thursday, December 02, 2004
Sex Type Quiz Of course, this is from Dawn. Since she dared me... Copy this whole list into your journal / blog. 2. Bold OR capitalize the things that are true about you. 3. Whatever you don't bold is false. PART I 01. I've had sex in the past five minutes. PART II 1. I have, either currently or in the past, gone over a year without sex. Now I dare YOU to post it on your blog! Wednesday, December 01, 2004
Silly Fool Men really do amaze me. Mr Big came over tonight to fix my lightbulb. You need 6ft men to come over and do those sort of things when you're only 4'11. But, since when did "Can you come change my lightbulb" translate to "Let's get hot and naked and do it on the sink?" I did get my lightbulb fixed. He went home. I broke up with you for a reason. No, not the sex. The sex was banging. But you, you don't know the meaning of the word monogomous. But evidently you know the meaning of the word lightbulb. Bye bye.

How Was Your Day? Hmmm, a fun day had by all *insert heavy sarcasm here. My little Pops really really really ticks me off. I love him dearly. But he still pisses me off. He does absolutely nothing around the house. Seriously, nothing. He's worse than DJ. I understand he's unhappy. He's been depressed ever since he and my mother split up (6+ years ago.) He doesn't take care of himself. He doesn't take care of anything around here and my biggest complaint...he doesn't shower. He spent the whole day (morning, noon and night) at the kitchen table. Subtract the 1 hour he took to go to the store and the 15 minutes he was in the shower-finally. Did not lift one little finger to do anything! I'm really fed up. His bathroom was DISGUSTING. I don't know the last time he cleaned or if he ever cleaned it. I spent 1 hour cleaning his bathroom. Yes, one hour cleaning a BATHROOM. I didn't even touch the tub or the sink. I'm just talking about the toilet area. How gross. This is a day on a weekend (or a day when Pops is off) at my house. BTW, he sleeps at my kitchen table. I guess I can understand it if you haven't washed your sheets for months. But, hey, they don't come clean on their own. You actually need to take them OFF the bed and throw them in the washer. Trust me, the sheets will appreciate it. I'll greatly appreciate. He wakes up for a bit and wants to watch TV. DJ is playing video games on the TV. He'll tell DJ to go play on the computer or something. So DJ will go in the bedroom he was supposed to share with Pops. But then after about 1/2 hour, Pops decides he wants to lay down on the bed. He kicks DJ out the room because he makes too much noise. DJ comes back in and plays video games or something else. Then Pops wakes up and bitches because he can't watch TV because DJ monopolizes the television. I really think Pops contributes greatly to how DJ acts. During the week when it's just us, he is much more calmer. On days when Pops is off or the weekends, he's just out of control. I really wish I never asked him to move in. Though before I asked him to move in, I was over his house every weekend because he needed company. I was getting nothing done here at my apartment. Seriously, it's just a vicious circle. When you try to tell Pops something, he gets pissed. The only thing he does around here is puts the dishes in the dishwasher after dinner on the weekends. I get to turn it on. I do trash, cooking, cleaning, vacuuming, picking up, etc, etc. I had to do all this today. I'm tired. I'm sore. I'm not doing this anymore. This cooking crap. I had to call PIC up to come over and do the stuffing and mashed potatoes so I could actually take a shower. I just want to run away from home! Wednesday, November 24, 2004
I Am Thankful For....
Have a happy and wonderful Thanksgiving! Do I Really Feel Like Doing This? Before I go into my rant of the day, I wish to rant about my sore mouth. One hour yesterday and one hour today, my mouth was opened wide. NO, not for THAT! Sickos. I had 2 dentist appointments. Cavities on either side of my mouth. My dentist was novocaine happy and it took me thwee houws to thop feewing numb. Now that the numbness has worn off, I'm sore. It's only sore when I open my mouth. I'm gone to be one pissed off honey if I'm having problems eating tomorrow. Speaking of tomorrow, guess who's cooking? That's right, me. I refused to go all out this year because it's just me, DJ, and Pops. Oh, and the cat. The cat LOVES Thanksgiving. I'm doing boxed mashed potatos and boxed stuffing. I say to hell with anyone who doesn't like it. I'm the one slaving in the kitchen all day. Hell, that's every day. I didn't even bake this year. I'll be baking shortly though. We have to keep up with "traditions". I hate traditions! Every year traditions go out the window except the ones I really don't feel like doing. DJ is already working on me to start the cookies. It's not even December yet. Geez! He also told me he wants to bake a Christmas cake. A tree. And decorate it. I just can't wait (insert heavy sarcasm here.) I do have good news for the upcoming holidays. Since I'm no longer talking to my mommy dearest, that's one less present I have to buy. Since mommy dearest is fucking up our lives, Pops and I arent' exchanging presents either. And PIC, well she just moved and bought a crapload of stuff she has to pay off. We haven't talked about gift exchanging yet. I'm buying each and every one of DJ's presents of Amazon. Yep, that's right, no crazy crowds for me this year! I already sent in my time for Dec and I'm off two days. Wrapping days. I'm all set. This might just be the bestest Christmas ever:)
