What a nice thing for your grandma, kicky! Glad to hear you had fun.
I am still at myparents. I was planning to be gone by now and safely back home at my quite apartment, but I am snowed in......
So get your ass out there and start shoveling!
My car is absolutely buried right now...on it later.
Nice heads up to what I'm getting into.....soon.
me <---- running off to check Boston's forecast.

You could've just smiled slyly and said, "Well, now you can all see why he's my EX!"
Hey lips, have you lived anywhere with snow before?
If not, get yourself a good pair of boots and gloves, and if you're going to have a car, you better have someone teach you how to drive in the snow.

Those two are leading me down the road to perdition.
Isn't Perdition the name of your farm, Gus?
You want snow? Go to Rochester! Or Buffalo, which is where I had to end up on my first nightmare flight. What a shithole that city is. It took us twice as long to get to Rochester because of that ****.
Smiling about Kicky and Grandmother, 'tis nice to hear.
A big hiss to Paulaj's ex, whatta dolt.
Welcome back kicky, we missed you!

That is exactly what I
think when he does these thing's.
Paula, that is what my idiot sister-in-law does to me all the time too. And it's usually not even anything clever either. It's just an unimaginative, "Well, we all know you're stupid anyways." or something lame like that.
The problem with me is that I make a lot of self-deprecating jokes. When you have someone like my sister-in-law around, they never fail to take you literally and then use it to make a personal attack on you.
She did it at least a few times during this visit, but I was prepared this time. Mostly I just ignored her. Her insults used to really embarass me, which would make it virtually impossible for me to think of a smartass comeback, but I realized something. I realized that she's an insecure control freak, and that is what insecure control freaks do when they are threatened. The things they say are only their own perceptions, and have much more to do with them than you.
Some people just don't get how wonderful you are Paula. F*ck 'em.

Bloody bear has turned into Yoda since that damn change of avatar he made, yes.

I read these things and feel so lucky that my family died when I was so young....
"Cept the grandma sounds great!
Family doesn't always have to be bad, Deb. We had a very nice Christmas with my sister and her family. Alright, I admit - Christmas is a lot better since my parents moved to Hungary and we are not even asking them to come visit...
Lol!!! Urs! Yes - I know, families can be great - but often Christmas is a time familied folk find pretty wearing.
We used to have a huge party every year, that went on from about 11 am on christmas day, and all our friends would reel in from family "do's" - shaken and often enraged - and babble for a while, then relax and soothe the next escapee.
They were fantastic parties!
A few of us, sans famille, provided the soothing core of the thing....
Kicky...Glad your back!
My Christmas with my family consisted of stopping by my mothers house, swapping gifts and shaggin' ass about 20 minutes later. LOL
Hey, makemeshiver! Glad to be back!
I have to say, for all the complaining I do about my family, I always get homesick for a while after seeing them. They are all nuts, but they're my nuts, and I love them. Yeah, you heard me right, I love my nuts.
very glad to hear it.
what about your uvula????
