It's lonely here at 5 AM EDT. My ex-mother-in-law was taken to the hospital at about 2 AM, and my ex-wife went there. I need to be up in about a half hour to get the girls up for school. That'd never happen if I had gone to sleep at 2:30 or so. 5:30 is the middle of the night to me. That doesn't keep my ex from waking me up at 6-7 AM every day, though. The result is that I'm often bleary-eyed. Make that extra beary today. Damn. I hope everything goes smooth with everything, so I can go to sleep the rest of the morning, at least. ::)

I hate days like that, hope everything goes well. Nice new sig by the way.

::)
Good luck! I've hardly had any sleep myself the last few days..

I never sleep enough. To bed at 12:30 to 1:30, up at 6:30. Always tired. My own fault, more than likely.
That sucks, though. It must be tough have such a symbiotic relationship with your ex. I can't imagine that. I think it would drive me off the deep end in short order.
Best of luck to you, and hope her mom is okay. Get some sleep!

Thanks. I did manage to sleep from about 8:30 AM to 1 PM. Almost good enough.
Symbiotic? I guess in a way. There is an interdependence there, but I think of symbiosis as a positive thing. My situation is hardly that. The thing is that if my ex's mom does end up dying or disabled, it will be that much harder for me to leave. I'm still here because of my daughters, and nothing more. Even if I don't get a place of my own soon, I could be crashing at my mom's big house, with my own room and no hellish pressure or tension. If grandma can no longer take care of the girls in my absence, my need to be here for them will become that much greater. I hope that doesn't happen, for 2 reasons: (1) my own path to freedom would get further blocked, and less importantly, (2) it would fuel the Catholic mysticism around me--"oh, so it was God's will that you go and stay there!" Ugh! Just what I need.

I sleep like 8 hours a day. Any less and I am a mess.

Even as a religious man I call that bullshit.
But yeah, I see what you mean. That really sucks. I honestly can't understand how you can even deal with that living situation. I can understand being nearby, but not *that* nearby. I really feel the need to buy you a beer. You're a bigger man than I.

You're a bigger man than I.
You sure about that? We've all seen your pic recently. :P
Without a make fun of que board, it has to be spread throughout the rest of the forums.

I have been zinged. However, my tiny friend, I heartily suggest you watch yourself while making fun of other peoples' sizes. Especially when said people are large enough to crush your teenage frame into its component parts.
