So it's yet the passing of another christmas holiday. Well so just you know the fuck up fairy has once again graced my presence. Oh not in the way that one would think.
Oh how did the fuck up fairy of happy sobering holidays visit me?
1. I found out I have more relatives than I thought I knew.
2. I found out my father was married to another woman while married to my mother but it wasn't legal ( what!!!??? Go figure), well the woman I thought he married, he wasnt married too, while living with but married to another woman.
Confused? I know my therapist is thinking, with this guy, I can put my kid thru grad school & pay off the Lexus.
I can honestly say if I ever go to a family reunion, I can ask, So, are you my mother?
3. My mother is currently going thru a divorce from my 3rd father & needs to take pictures of the house. Really stupid shit, left car parts all over the basement, he punched holes in the walls, never, ever repaired them. Just plain drywall, I had offered on more than one occassion to fix the house out of my pocket, but I got turned down. The saying was OH, he'll get around to fixing it up (this was the constant saying.).
Now it's time to take pictures of the damage, one of my siblings is going to take pictures with a digital camera & I was asking my mother about how she was going to present the evidence to the judge. She had that deer in the headlight look, know that look? It's like what do you mean.
So I asked again, how are you going to present the pictures to the judge. Still the same look & fucked up answer. So I suggested, that I bring my camera, a laptop with a burner on it & burn the pictures to a cd & then we could go to a shop that would print the out pictures. This way everyone is happy, she has archived evidence, pictures. She said how much would it cost to print out the pictures, I said not to worry about it, I would handle the costs.
4. One of my relatives asked me to fix a computer for them for a gift for a cousin of mine. Well another cousin reformatted the hard drive to a degree but it locked up after that. But thats not the bad part, he reconfigured the hard drives, and played in the BIOS. It took me a few hours with the help of my contacts to undo what the fuck up fairy's minion did. It was all good to go in 24 hours & delivered with all the items I put on my clients. Then I showed them how to use my relatives this what you do, & told my cousin, don't touch the insides. I dont want to deal with your ability to be the fuck up fairy's minion.
5. My mother had to go & piss off the fuck fairy on christmas eve, dont ask me how. As a tradition to her & a gift, I attend a midnight service on christmas eve. Well she got in her car, all the 3 doors locked down. So she was locked in her car, I was tired, awaiting a call to SEE if she was going to go, if she wasnt going, neither was I & then it was going to be drink time for me.
I digress, I got a call, asking me if I could meet her at her house, no problem, then it she switched it, to a local store that was open. So we could get some deicer for her locks.
Well I get to the store, she mentioned that one of my siblings is already in the store & to make sure she gets what the stuff. So I go in, like the good person I am, & I do find my sibling getting assitance from a store person (SP). Then the SP procedes to give me a lecture on the properties of water and how to melt it. Really, you would think at my age I was going to urinate on the locks hoping that would have thawed the electronic mechanics of it. Then the SP suggests that I get a syringe. I told him, no thanks I gave up shooting herion for Christmas. & told him its most likely electrical, so shooting any type of liquid wasnt the wisest thing to do. He agreed. What a revelation.
Well my sibling goes out to the car with a few things that was needed & my mother proceded to tell me not to worry about it & she was going home. I said okay but call me when you get home, or I will call you at 2 a.m. & just to make sure your home. Well she did call me. Guess what? The car doors started to work again. I just gave her advice that she should have let her car warm up next time.
Not that it was a little late on the advice but it was a given thing when your going out into 10 degree temps.
5. After my mother left the store, I decided to do some shopping & get another call, mind you its now 12:30 & it's Christmas. My little one got sick & throw up all over the bed, blanket & pillow. Not that I mind, my little one's diet was sugar, cookies, anything sweet. It was Christmas.Well I got a few things that was needed for my little one. I proceded to get things done. A bath was needed because throw up isnt a good a hair conditioner, got fought on that by my little one. My little one's tummy hurt, so it was said, so I try to make it better but I was a bastard about it. Two things will only hurt my little one. Me or God. Anyone else, there will be a black day coming. Anyways, I had the bed stripped, fresh everything went on, got some medicine into my little one. Got fresh pajamas on, that was a battle too. Then my little one did a few dry heaves, after a bit, the tummy aches went away & eventually fell asleep on the couch. I then but my little one back to bed.
I told my girl, that I have the night shift, you have the day shift. Sent her to bed. I stayed up until just to make sure there were'nt anymore problems. My little one did wake up thirsty but that was normal, gave a drink, then a tuck back in bed.
Eventually the fuck up fairy moved on to another family.
Christmas Day was very good to me however the events leading up to it weren't.
May everyone who reads this & to those who don't read it...have a exceptional holiday season & may your New Year be filled with an industrial size can of FUFR. ( That's Fucked Up Fairy Repellant.)
