Disfunction Junction

The ONLY good thing that's happend to me in the last couple of days is that I found out that my asshole neighbor is getting evicted in the next couple of weeks. We don't know when for sure but thats fine. And as soon as he's gone I'm going to the courts to get a restraining order against him so that he can't come back. I think thats the smartest thing I've done all year.

So Comcast decided that they wanted more money than I wanted to pay and took my paymet twice. And the end result was causing me 9 overdraft fees totalling $315 so I finally got all that taken care of as of today after a week of going back and forth with them and my bank. Then today I check my account and 3 more nsf fees went through so I had fax over another statement showing that and get it reviewed. So now my account is showing -$619.34 so I'm screwed even more now. And the rep from Comcast said it will take between 1 or 2 business days for it to post back to my account. So Dustin is being nice enough to get some food on his credit card for me for the weekend. So after this is all done I'm going to call Comcast and demand them to give me at least 2 months free service for thier mistake. I don't think that's too much to ask do you?? And for the past 2 days we've been hella busy at work which is adding to my stress and I just don't think I can handle any more. Ok I'm done with my rant.

So my neighbor decided to start talking to me again even after all issues with the cops and all. And the other day he saw someone leave in our car thinking it was Dustin so he came over to talk to me but it was me that went to the store so he was in for a surprise. When Dustin opened the door I guess my neighbor just stood there and said he needed to talk to me and then just left. Both Dustin and I have agreed that he's (neighbor) not allowed over to our apartment and that neither of us want anything to do with him. Since I guess he's over the cops coming over I think he's going to think that he can start coming over again but I'm just going to let Dustin handle it unless he wants to pay me some of the $$ he owes me but of course that will never happen. Oh well you win some and you lose some.

On another note my dad is in Michigan right now inspecting some firetruck chassis that he's having built and he's only like 20-30 minutes away from Dustins parents house so I guess their all getting together tonight for dinner. I think its so cool that both of our families get along so well. As soon as we told Dustins mom that my dad was coming she started making plans to go see him. My step-mom said she wanted to go but couldn't but theres always next time. I just feel fortunate that our families get along so well (of course thats excluding my mom Debbie).

Ok I guess I'll go to lunch now I hope everyone has a great day!!

So I did it again.... I tried helping a friend out with a personal problem and I ended up getting hurt in the end. I feel like shit now and I thought I had everything under control last week but nooo it came up again today and now I feel like total shit. From now on I'm just going to keep to myself and work and not really talk to anybody unless they talk to me first and if that does happen I'm just make small talk. WHY do I keep doing this to myself????

My kitten keeps peeing on the carpet even though she still uses the litter box. We think its an attention thing since she only does it at night or if we're both gone.

Dustin wants to take her to the shelter this weekend but she's my baby so if you have any advice PLEASE help!!!

So I get home today to find out my asshole neighbor broke into my apartment again. He took some of my oxicodon and ciggarettes and then helped himself to some chips. I know for a fact it was him since this isn't the first time.

So I had the cops come file another report. And one of the cops tried to accuse me of filing a false police report. Since he thought it was odd that someone would just come in and take three cigarettes and two pills and some chips. He said that if he found out that I just went through my medicine too fast and thought by filing the police report would get me a new prescripition faster he would take it all the way to the D.A.. He asked if I would be willing to sign a report saying what I was telling him was true. And of course I asked him for the report I even said that my husband would sign it too. So the cops left and went to his apartment and ofcourse he wouldn't open the door. I mean come on if you didn't do anything wrong or have nothing to hide then why not open your door??

So starting soon we're going to somehow hook up a webcam/video camera to see if we can catch him in the act since he now knows I have my meds again. I'm sure it will cool down for a little bit since the cops came today.

And one of the cops knew exactly who I was talking about because he knows that he's been 86'd from BOTH Cheveron and 7-11 for shopplifting.

Ok I think I'm done with my rant now.

Lesson 1:

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her
shower, when the doorbell rings. The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel
and runs downstairs.

When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor. Before
she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.' After
thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front
of Bob.

After a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.

The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets
to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'

'It was Bob the next door neighbor,' she replies.

'Great!' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'

Lesson 2:

A priest offered a Nun a lift. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her
gown to reveal a leg. The priest nearly had an accident. After controlling
the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.

The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' The priest removed his hand.

But, changing gea rs, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once
again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.' Arriving at the
convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way.

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129.
It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'

Moral of the story: If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity


Lesson 3:

A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch
when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out. The
Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'

'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the Bahamas ,
driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'

Puff! She's gone.

'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on
the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and
the love of my life.'

Puff! He's gone.

'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the managerThe manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch.'

Moral of the story: Always let your boss have the first say


Lesson 4

An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw
the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'

The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested.
All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up


Lesson 5

A turkey was chatting with a bull. 'I would love to be able to get to the
top of that tree,' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.'

'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull
They're packed with nutrients.'

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough
strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. The next day, after eating
some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night,
the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.

Moral of the story: Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there


Lesson 6

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze
and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying there, a cow
came by and dropped some dung on him.

As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize
how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all
warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.

A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.
Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung,
and promptly dug him out and ate him.

Moral of the story:
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend
(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

Please pray to who ever you pray to that my brother Matt is ok. He's serving our country in Iraq and he got wounded today. He got shot in his left shoulder and is on his way to Germany and than to DC to have 6 months of rehab then hopefully he'll be coming home. Please pray for my family especially my lil sis (his wife) that everything goes good. I'll try to keep everyone updated as I know stuff.

So for those of you who don't know I'm home!!! I'll go into more detail later as where I've been but dinners done and I'm starving. I'll post more later tonight.

Ok here it goes... I admitted myself to Kaiser on Thursday night and spent the night there in the "quiet room". Then on Friday I was transferred to St. Vincents in Beaverton by ambulance no doubt which I stayed there till today. I met some really great people there and I worry about them. I hope they stay strong and take care of themselves. Three of us are going to keep in contact with each other and try to see each other as often as we can. I was able to take some time and work on myself and figure out what was going on in my head. I've decided to put myself first like I should have been doing all this time. I can't remember the last time that I did that for myself and its going to be hard to keep that up but I have too for me. In ways I feel better but in ways I don't. It's hard to explain. And in some ways now that I'm home I feel like I shouldn't have left treatment so soon. Don't worry I'm not having the same thoughts that I did that put me in there. I'm just still depressed but I can work through it now. It's just going to be hard to go back to my life after experiencing something like that. I miss having Ava and Adam there whenever I need someone to talk to or to cry on thier shoulders. I worry that Thomas isn't going to take care of himself and that he's going to end up back in there but that's me the "mother" figure. I can't help it. I also worry about Angie that she's not going to get the help that she really needs and that I'll hear about her dying from an o.d. This song thats playing has soo much meaning to me and makes me think. I don't think I could ever listen it to much. Every time I do I get something else from it. I know everyone was worried about me and I want to thank you for that and let you know that I'm ok now or at least I will be. I'm going to be going back to seeing a shrink and a therepist so that I can keep getting better. I guess I'll stop rambeling now. Just know that it's good to be home in ways but in others its not 'cus now I have to face everything on my own.
