Oh good grief.
Apr. 30th, 2011 06:56 pmMy long-suffering sister spent a fair part of the day escorting The Sperm Donor to see houses in his hometown area. Which was mostly a bust, because
a) houses for sale in those little towns are few and far between
b) houses for sale, that are still in liveable condition rarer still
c) true to form, The Sperm Donor started drinking at 10:30 this morning
He's not an alcoholic. He only drinks beer, so of course he's not an alcoholic. (He's been saying that for 30 years now, and it's still gospel among the less educated where I grew up.)
I'm terrified that Sis is going to be his next crutch, because she can't bring herself to say no. If her bf is around, he'll tell The Sperm Donor "no" for her, and even remove him from the house if necessary. But he can't do anything about things she's told on the phone.
Mom's worried about it too. Mom's already psyching herself to chase him off her property, because eventually beer will overtake whatever sense he's got left, and he'll try for a booty call.
And The Sperm Donor's sister, Crazy Aunt Kathy, still buys his bull when he says he doesn't drink.
I love my family.
I love my family.
I love my family.
Well, some of them.
Speaking of family that I love, Grandma is out of the hospital, and sounding perky just for that. Here's hoping she follows her doc's orders for once, and doesn't go back in.
