Random Fail: First World Problems

[Aksannyi]

but theyve been evacuated


theyre fine


prolly think its the coolest shit to happen to them all autumn

Yeah they're fine. I worry more about recovering because of money and stuff, but we are at least lucky they're okay. It's just hard being so far away and so powerless.

But 'dat Carabba's peach sangria...

Carrabas is pretty much our go to on nights we get home late or cant cook for some reason cause we can spend less than $40.

I try to be okay on Halloween but my late moms birthday is today and I had an anxiety attack at the mall , cold sweats and all. Now I'm drowning my sorrows with Not Your Father's Rootbeer and watching bad movies on Netflix.

Re: flooding, the water has receded and the family's back at home, working on cleanup. I'm guessing some spots are still flooded, but the worst of it is apparently over. I don't really have any details since my ex doesn't like to communicate.

Had exactly 0 kids show up for trick or treat, then I went out to dinner.

That's why you only buy the candy you like. Makes it a total win. We haven't had a trick or treater for like 20 years now. Mainly because our house is in the "old" section of town. No subdivisions or cul-de-sacs and most of the families haven't had kids living at home in a long time.

Got my car flooded out pulling into the apt yesterday after work, can't get it to the shop until Monday.
Couldn't even tell there was water that was high, lived here 8 years and through all the high water rains its never done this. Stepped out to push the car and it was about a foot deep.
Really not looking forward to what's to come from this.

I'll definitely try that in the future. I've been searching for Not your Fathers for a month and suddenly everyone has it now in California lol.

It's really addictive and I think I'm going to try it as a root beer float tonight.

They got national distribution recently. You're gonna see it everywhere.

Fucking allergies have been brutal today.

Ughhh my baby sister (the 20yr old that had the kid about 4 weeks ago) is hitting that exhaustion mark that comes with having a kid. I asked her how she as doing "I can't wait to get out of this house (parents)." Apparently baby daddy lost his job and she's going to be trying for Section 8.


I can't even talk to her anymore. My baby sister, section 8 cause she got knocked up and had a kid. Fuck it, not my life. I really gotta stop asking questions.

[BaneTheBrawler]

well i mean, what do you want her to do? live with your parents forever? if she's not working, it's not like she has any other options.

I know it doesn't help but I have two older sisters that are about 17 and 19 years my senior and they spent their whole lives on welfare were section 8 because they decide to have kids from several different baby daddies.

Even though my life isn't exactly how I imagined it at 37 I can honestly say that their mistakes and I do call them mistakes allowed me to realize what not to do in life. They are both in their 50s and don't even have contact with any of their kids due to various reasons including putting them up for adoption because they weren't ready to be parents ( their exact words to me) and wanted to keep partying in their 20s and 30s.

The only ones I ever feel bad for growing up were the kids and I didn't understand what was going on because I'm so young but seriously they all ended up having kids at young ages two and it's a vicious cycle that I was the only one in my family to break.

It's mentally exhausting and In ways it was really toxic for me to keep those relationships so I'm pretty much withdrawn from everyone now. The only regret I have is not cutting contact about 10 years sooner. Don't give me wrong it's socks it gets emotional for me and I have times where I'm really lonely for some family but it's just not worth the drama

I just wish she's stop making shitty choices. I know I'm not the best role model, but christ. Knocked up at 19 with a deadbeat (who isn't even in the marines anymore, I found out today. Don't know the story on that.) and I half expect her to start drinking again.

I wanted better for her and tried to help her/teach her. Everything anyone has ever said to her, she has ignored and done what she wants.

Anyway, it's not like I can help her or anything so I just check in once in a while - Her best option would be put the kid up for adoption and move on with her life, but well. That's not gonna happen so I just make the talks very infrequent. Besides, it's not like my mom/dad are horrible people that abuse or discourage her. They're not addicts or anything, they're good people who instilled many good morals and lessons into me and did a wonderful job with my brother. She's just a bitchy princess.

Anyway! real fail: I'm being lazy on my day off and not cleaning/gyming. But Vampire Diaries... ooooo I like.

Best bet is give them a couple of chances then if they keep proving themselves to be a giant waste of oxygen forget about them

[AidenCarby]

Some asshole almost killed me on the highway, fuck I hate people.

Idid my workout video yesterday for the first time in months. I almost fell downstairs yesterday because my legs were jello and today the fronts of my thighs feel so tight sitting on the toilet is a challenge
