Stop putting the toilet paper on the wrong way! Am I the only one in this house who gets this?

At least they are putting it on the thingy . . . Tiberius.

True. Things can always be worse. I had a roommate who never replaced the TP. He's not with us anymore.

I'm going to imagine you killed him.


Honestly, I can totally forgive a toilet paper snafu with Tibs. I've never in my life felt so much like a household was run as a team. Sure, I'm team leader when it comes to chores, but he's on board. He changes all the light bulbs and batteries too.

I need to borrow him so he can teach the other adult in my house what it means to be part of a team.

I've often said I wish I could clone him and share the clones with other women (particularly my sisters). Don't get me wrong. It was a learning process for both of us. We had to figure out what was important to who and how we could get it done. I'd like to think we run a pretty tight ship these days. I've learned to let go (there are actually dirty dishes just sitting over there in the kitchen and I'm doing nothing about it until tonight!), and he has learned my way of doing things. Love him to pieces.

This has been like a love arrow direct to my OCD heart. Thanks. 

In my world everyone crumples, not folds.

How many times does one get to cry wolf before they are no longer trusted for what they say? I mean, enough is enough already. I stopped buying their brand of bullshit long ago. It still amazes me when others don't see it.

damn, I hate being right about something like this. What was it, 20 years ago, you had the first of MANY chances to save your kid? And every fucking time, when one of those chances came up (and with depressing frequency lately, I might add) you do the same goddam thing. And the kid got worse, his fuck ups grew in magnitude and lately, in astonishing cruelty too.

When do you realize you're a party to his crimes, and another crime too: failing to correct your kid and therefore condemning him to prison? (assuming he doesn't OD first)

That last thing he did, I realize is just theft, in the eyes of the law. But consider what he stole, the pittance he took for it, what it was, and what it meant to the people he stole it from. And to what noble purpose did he put that pittance? Meth? A gun? H?

I was approached by a police officer the other day, imagine my surprise when I anticipated to the cop who I thought I was going to be asked about, and found I was wrong, but only because your kid was already incarcerated that occasion! The cop thought it was funny, and your kid would definitely have been a suspect had Sarpy county not already had him cooling his heels. If you had bailed him out a day earlier than you did, he'd be up for that charge too.

You know I'm pissed. You know where I'm at and have been for 20 years on these 'favors' you keep doing for your kid. Not one of them had the effect in straightening him out, in fact, it's all too clear every 'save' made him worse.

And here we are.
