If I have to have a sister-in-law, does it have to be that one?
Apparently, she who shall remain nameless save the various titles I’ve already asigned her on this blog is now officially engaged to my brother. Certain members of my slightly misguided family are still thinking (hoping, perhaps?) they won’t actually end up getting married. I, however, expect it. And am definitely … Read the rest

And the answer wasn’t even hard to figure out.
Shortest conversation I ever had with my brother: Him: How is it my dog managed to get into so much garbage without you hearing him? Me: Simple, really. It’s not my job to mind him. *silence* Ah, lessons learned with live demonstration. No guarantee it’ll be successful, of course, but … Read the rest

My brother is now a millitary man.
And all I can say is God help us if they give him a gun.

I may actually have 5 minutes’ peace.
I of course wouldn’t hold my breath, but by the looks of it… that dog of my brother’s is here again. So that should give an indication. Fortunately, though, the two that actually belong here are outside… so there’s no constant battle of him wanting to take one of their … Read the rest

Between the baking, shopping, and just generally lazing around that’s been done today, and the fact in just under 2.5 hours there will be hockey on at least one TV set, you’d certainly get that impression. But, no, this is just our premature thanksgiving dinner, done tonight rather than Monday … Read the rest

It’s a conspiracy.
Why else would circumstances present themselves just right for my brother to be in town just long enough for his damn dog to piss on my floor? Freakin’ 3 months old and still just going where he stands. Murphy must be specificly out to piss me off today. Retribution, perhaps, … Read the rest

I feel all accomplished and such.
After spending nearly an hour in wallmart when I only had to go there for, like, 1 or 2 things but my mother decided she’d buy something from every sale coming, which I suppose shouldn’t surprise me but anyway, we finally got into the music store so the guitar that’s … Read the rest

Go shopping for a guitar and end up with clothes. Go figure.
The original plan was to drop my brother off at work, then get a bit of household shopping out of the way, before we went to at least price out a decent-sounding guitar so I can actually give my uncle’s back to him. Well, we managed to get 2 of … Read the rest

I’m too easily amused.
My brother just tried to make himself look and sound pathetic in an attempt to get my mom, who was heading to the grocery store, to swing by here first so he can grab his smokes out of the car. Perhaps this is just me taking some sort of cruel … Read the rest
