So why is he still laying on the couch?


I just finally got .50 cents so I could get a newspaper for my brother (the 20 year old [refer to former post]) so that he could start looking for apartments. I handed him the paper. Ate some cereal, checked my email. He skims thru the paper, puts it down, then turns back over on the couch and goes to sleep. I ask…WTF????? Lemme ask ya’ll this: If you were a 20 year old grown man tired of living in a two bedroom apartment with your older sister, 18 year old brother who you don’t get along with and your 12 year old sister who talks alot and you had to sleep on the couch and you had no income…what would you do? If your older sister said she knew a way that you could get an apartment without having to pay the rent and a way you could get food without having to pay a cent, wouldn’t you be up everyday trying to get her to get you there ASAP? If she didn’t, wouldn’t you be trying to do it yourself? I understand he is depressed and stuff, but this is soooo frustrating. He’s being depressed at OUR expense. He’s eating food he’s not paying for. Hogging the remote to cable he’s not paying for. Chillin in a bathroom for hours upon end that has to be used by all members of the house. I ask again WTF???? I have extended the offer that he can go get mental help, and made an appointment. He says that if we go to church he’ll get better. So me being a testament to the power of Jesus, I say okay. We’re gonna go, but I’m still keeping that Edgewater appointment. Homebruh got a chemical imbalance ya’ll. I’m bout to get this paper and look my damn self and call these places to see if they are available and if they accept township rent assistance.


 


I work at a place where I can rent movies for free.


As long as I return the new NEW release rentals before they hit the shelves on the morning they are due to be put out. I rented Monster-in-Law the day before it was due. I know that the other girls at work cover each others butts if they don’t bring in movies this time. There is one harpie that works there for a living, the rest of them have two jobs. I bring in Monster in Law ten minutes before it is due to be in before my FREE rental privileges are revoked. The only thing that makes this job halfway worth working are the FREE rentals. I left the Monster in Law disc in my DVD player. Instead of her just checking it in in the amount of time it would take for it to be in on time. She tells me I have ten minutes to drive all the way back home, get the disc, bring it back in, and hope it’s on time. I drive like a bat out of hell, (i live five minutes away) I almost slam into the back of a NIPSCO truck, and come back a minute late with the disc. She tells me hopefully it won’t pop up on the manager’s report and that she gives everyone one chance if they’ve made a mistake and keeps telling me how this girl Trina lost her privileges because she brought a movie in at 11am. Dammit, I’m not Trina and I brought mine in at 10:31, a minute late. But of course, this chick just couldn’t bring herself to help me. “Sometimes I have my husband drop movies off at 5:30 in the morning…” bitch I don’t care! *knocks all checked in rentals off the counter in one fell swoop* “Have fun with check in tonight ho!”

  1. GIRL DON’T I KNOW IT! Internet romance is a crock o’ bullshit and all I know is that after three years- reality hits. Alls I’m saying if fuck it all. Damn it to hell cuz there’s got to be more to life then one big ass mystery with a man trynna act like thangs is all to the good. If I was the 20 year old I’d be out. A place I could stay for free? Please. I’d be all over that. He’s comfortable so he won’t go anywhere. I’ll be praying for him though. Church will do him good.You stay up, too. We be alright.
