O/T I'm Buying A Rental House (And Hope Eventually Chef Will Move Into It)
I've mentioned to Chef that I want to buy a rental house purely for the tax deduction factor. He gets POUNDED with taxes every year because he has been keeping his tax contributions artificially low JUST so he can have a PITTANCE left over after CS is taken out.
He has no healthcare and any Obamacare plan would wipe out his takehome pay, which he would NOT stand for (need $$ for booze, fancy food, etc.)
How Can You Seriously Point Out Flaws In Others (Speck vs. Log Parable in Action)
So coming home from an NFL game on Sunday, Chef started scrambling for his keys. This is a guy who leaves the keys in the ignition and notoriously HATES all locked doors because he was raised out in the sticks.
He searched for a good ten minutes or so and had everyone else involved in the hunt. He also makes major purchases without asking me--you'll see where I'm going with this.
So this morning, his co-worker who is a dispatcher for the most part texted Chef that her "dickhead boyfriend purchased an SUV without consulting her and now cannot find keys to said vehicle."
What's Up With Allowing Your Kid To Have SLEEPOVERS on SCHOOL NIGHTS?
Not sure if this is a "modern" trend, but I swear that ALL of the skids (well the two that are left at home 16 and stb 12) are allowed to have multiple sleepovers at friend's houses during the school week.
This despite the horrific grades and attendance records they have. WTF? In my day we RARELY had sleepovers at friends houses on the weekENDS, never mind school nights!!! SD16 practically LIVES at other kids houses all throughout the week. And I must add that this has been going on for YEARS!!
Baby's First Detention
YSS stb 12 just got his first two day detention (that I know about) for blowing off his science and math homework. I see he's following in the footsteps of his older siblings and why shouldn't he when neither the BM nor Chef EVER made their kids do ANYTHING that they didn't WANT to do.
The note said that they had a CONFERENCE (the "talking to" TM) with YSS (and not the BM)
They CALLED the BM and left a VOICE MAIL message so obviously, because there was no note of BM being at the "conference" it wasn't a concern of hers.

SD16's VERY Appropriate FB Post! (If it weren't true it'd be funny)
" A good friend calls you in jail"
" A great friend bails you out of jail"
" Your best friend sits next to you in jail saying "wasn't that fun?"
:barf: :barf: :barf:
And yeah, so prophetic as SD has the defiant, devil may care, "tomboyesque" attitude as in ALPHA pack female.
It Never DOES End! CONFIRMED!
Talked to a computer customer of mine last night on a side job. She's well into her seventies; still working, most likely out of necessity; biodad, her husband, is retired. She is the second wife of a guy who has, now GREAT grand kids. This guy went through the whole Parental Alienation route by his ex-wife, the 300 lb BM who he STILL writes an alimony check to every month!

Blue Collar vs White Collar
World according to Chef: First of all, white collar workers are all lazy, shiftless bums (because they make much more money than Chef and therefore the grapes are getting sourer by the moment).
Second, blue collar men DO NOT put up exterior holiday lighting. This is because blue collars do the "manly" "big" jobs around the house, namely, plumbing, hvac, carpentry, etc. They don't have TIME to do fiddly, girly stuff like put up exterior decor, or lawn care, hot tub care, water softener care, general yard work, gardening, etc. (but DO have time to watch an afternoon of football).

Glad to See All That CS Is Going to a Good Cause (sarcasm tags OFF)
SD16 is currently crater failing (defined as at least 10 points below the fail mark)in:
1. "Pre" Algebra
2. English
3. Biology
4. Global Studies
5. Spanish (????? she can't even read at a 5th grade level in ENGLISH)
6. "Health" (although she did get an A+ in the birth control portion, but a D- in reproduction ???)
She continues to have her smart phone, her social media postings, and nights over at her girlfriends house during the week.
BM continues to autopilot non-parent.
O/T How Many Of You STalkers are at Work Today and What Do You Do For a Living?
I'm sure I'll probably get most responses from regions outside of the U.S... maybe. It's like tumbleweed city here at work today!
I"ll start. I am in IT. Could call it "desktop support." Hardware/Software issues and deployment as well as some networking and I make all the sysprepped images.
SD16's Lovey Dovey Coochie Coochie BF ADMITS on FB that SD is "Very Moody." (no shit sherlock)
Blog hog alert. So after 10 months of "I WUUUUV OOOOOO" SD16's gigantic unemployed 20 yr old BF discovers that SD is (and I quote) "Very Moody"
No shit.
This kid has been brought up to have ZERO empathy for anyone other than herself. She is an utter and complete underachieving narcissist.
