Who Stepped on the Bitchy Button?

Who's Your Daddy? A Family thread

My mom: she's amazing. One of my best friends. She'll give you the shirt off her back and bend over backwards to do whatever she can for you. Was a single mom of 3 kids and worked her ass off to raise us as best she could and to provide not only the things we needed, but also many of the things we wanted, too. She drinks too much, but we try to let her alone with that. She was a great mom as a kid because she always indulged the silliness and delight that come with being a wee child. She grabbed hold of my son the day he was born and has never looked back.
My dad: chose to move to NZ a few years ago - it was where he'd met my mom originally while he was stationed there in the Navy, and he loved it so much that after he and my stepmom divorced, he went back. He's difficult to get to know, taciturn and stubborn, but has a good heart underneath the gruff exterior. Also a great dad as a kid - he loves little kids and gets along better with them than anyone. I remember that he used to always sing the 'three little fishies and the mama fishy too' song to me. He's got Parkinson's now, and one of my biggest fears is that he'll die alone.

My sister: She's a bitch. Plain and simple. Takes no shit and makes no apologies. Good person to have on your side in an argument, an emergency or a bar fight. She was trained as a nurse/anesthetic technician, but gave it up several years ago to stay home and raise her kids. She's pregnant with no. 3 now - this one's a girl. Not a good idea to wake her up in the morning, just put a cup of coffee by her head and RUN. I love her immensely.

My brother: He's a great guy - everyone who knows him says so. Affable, an easy smile, always a ready joke and if anything happens to your car, he can fix it in a hot minute. We used to fight like cats and dogs when we were younger now, but things have calmed down as we've gotten older, and he's not too big a man to tell his little sister he loves her. Aww.

My son: The sun rises and sets over this kid - you all know it, and I know it, too. He's got my father's eyes, and a killer smile and is always ready to laugh at things and be goofy. He's an aficionado of hotwheels and spiderman, and would eat corndogs until he threw up, if I let him.

Best friend No. 1: Known her since I was 12. She's gregarious and hilarious, has known more pain than most people I know, but still manages to have a good time in her life. She's getting married next year, and we're going to take a last, single-girl roadtrip right before the wedding. Always ready to listen, would do anything she could to help the ones she loves, and has such a sweet and pure heart.

Best friend No. 2: Stubborn as his birthsign Taurus, has beautiful eyes, the world's best laugh and gives amazing backrubs. Has a musical spirit and radiates love and strength. Is equally good with kids, animals and the elderly - partially because he's a big kid himself. Loves his mama and isn't afraid to stand up for himself or anyone else. Champion of the underdog, but has such a gentle soul I've been brought to tears more than once.

x-post - OMG was she talking about House of Pies?

I'm listening to Big Head Todd & the Monsters' "Bittersweet" and I'm remembering how much it reminds me of how I felt when I was married.

These Luna threads are cute, everybody's talking so sweet and wide-eyed, L'il ILXors

thread is depressing me irl

I'm way behind here but did I seriously get called out upthread for describing this sociopath's fictional construct as "content free"?

i thought it was quoted in 'hah that's true & otm' tbh, rather than a negative callimg out?

Yeah it was a good observation

Yeah that's true upon re-reading.

how dare u

burrito stall?

I just had a conversation with our accountant at work. Apparently, my ex-husband owes around $7,000 to the IRS for several years of back income taxes (which I thought he had paid), and isn't responding to anything they're sending him. Since those years were filed jointly (fuck fuck FUCK how could I have been so stupid?), he's not working, and I am, they're garnishing my paycheck. Yep, 25% of every check comes out and goes to them. I'm barely making it as it is right now (he doesn't pay child support) and honestly, I don't know what the FUCK I'm going to do. I can't afford this, I can't get a second job right now and I want to fucking cry. Or scream. Or scream and cry.

I sure do hate those ex-husbands

looool

Did she ever post about music? What music did she "like"? I'm just... I dunno, obviously things were different back then, hell, I posted really differently, but... her posting style is just really unappealing to me, and it does make me wonder how she suckered people in so easily...

She sent me a mix CD. I forget what the track listing was (and have no idea what happened to the disc), but it was mostly classic rock IIRC.

but she was a groupie for some band, right? what were they like?

A quick shout out tI C9 Nation...Due to Stacy being under the weather we are having to cancel tonight's show at Big Als...

Sounds like her type of music

big lols

We have "the" most unique format you will ever experience for cover music.

We STRONGLY encourage the ladies let go of inhibitions, and take their rightful place on "Centerstage". So far, we have never had any complaints from the guys in the crowd. Must be the "VIEW" we guess...

xpost lolllll

no ppl attended the first cloud9 gig but none of them went out and started an ilx account

i like the little thoughtful fan in the front with the determined elbow.

She looks like my mum when mum attempts to "boogie". :|

lol Rock Hill

I don't really knock bloozehammer bands anymore. Reg'lar people(and/or mooks) need rock shows too, and it's probably better that they get their fix this way that staggering their way into ones I'm actually at.

Hell, I had to do sound for enough of these bands anyway.

"the daughter was eventually revealed to be alex in nyc"

That's not true, actually.

haha I think strongo was joking

never can tell with that girl

well it's nice not to have to wonder...

confirmation through denial, imo

Hi alex!
