Agreed! It suuuuuucks. But thanks DD. :)

Tracey, at least your mouth isn't open and you aren't drooling, lol.

Hehe. :D

I am so tired, but I am in such pain. I think I have an abscessed tooth. My gums around the tooth are really swollen and there's a bump. Why me? Fcuk.

Aw geez ((((Jen))))), I'm so sorry. I know it was a while ago, but still so devastating. :(

Smoking consumes your thoughts and drives you to do disgusting things, like pick through ashtrays and smoke cigarettes that have gotten wet or have holes in them. You are anxious for your fix all day, regardless of what you're doing or who you're with.

Awww, thank you Petra! And I agree, hehe. :)

Leaves teeth vulnerable for tooth decay. Never had a toothache before? Trust me, they aren't fun and you want to rip your tooth out of your mouth to stop the pain.

Sometimes I look at him and say, "OMG, you're so cute!" Lol. He probably thinks I'm crazy.

Permanent puckered mouth from inhaling. Morning cough. Missing precious time with family/friends.

Hahaha, probably. I'm not usually violent/mean/confrontational, but mess with my loved ones and I tell you...

Apparently she was talking about my other brother too, saying he was a "waste of space." He's a waste of space because he has an anxiety disorder? He's 30, yes. He's never had a job, yes. But he's an agoraphobic! He is terrified to go outside. If he were around people he doesn't know, he'd have a panic attack. :( He's been seeking help, so no, he's not a waste a space. Good God, she pisses me off. I asked my little brother what she said about me and I guess she didn't say anything, haha. I was like, "Well, that's a surprise, considering it sounds like she's attacking our entire family."

She really needs to butt out Sharon, that's for sure! How would she feel if someone said that to her after her mom died? Some people really have no filter and I don't know how my older brother puts up with her. Sue, when she first passed away, I was a wreck. I had a lot of breakdowns, quit my job, had fights with people for no reason. It was because I didn't let myself grieve much after she died, so I let it all build up. Steve stuck by my side, but I was a mess. I was drinking a lot and I gained a lot of weight. Some days, I would just sit alone and cry. I probably should have saw a grievance councillor ages ago, but it is a good idea. I've been talking to my doctor about it because he has a background in psychology. School has really helped. It keeps me busy. The wedding planning is also very therapeutic! I love spending time with my little brother, so I will try to visit him more often. It's a little hard because I do live three hours away, but I'm going to my friend's on the 29th and will see if she will drive me to his place so I can see him. Thanks Ross! Lol. I feel much better now. I have a bad temper too (must be the Irish/German in me), so this stops me from screaming at her for my LB's sake. I just find it funny that she calls my LB a loser when all she does is sit around and smoke pot. She is no angel! Total hypocrite.

I'm doing okay, thanks Sandy. :) I just needed to vent. For the most part, I'm living my life and am happy. Because my mom and I were really close though, it's a very touchy subject for me and my LB. My OB never spent any time with her and would always make excuses not to see her, so his guilt eats away at him. At least my little brother and I made an effort to be around her as much as possible. It sucks that his girlfriend always says stuff about mom and my mom isn't even here to defend herself. I think the GF knows not to say anything around me. Probably for the best. Otherwise, I'd make her cry. :)

Ah, thanks (((Ross))) You guys are amazing! I don't usually talk about my personal life, but I am trying very hard not to say anything to OB's girlfriend. This is a good place to vent. :) Yeah, sleep is very limited, haha. I wish I was one of those people who don't stress, but I do.

My family gives me a migraine. My OB has been an alcoholic for years. When he's sober, he is a sweetheart. But because he's drunk all the time now, he doesn't think properly and dates women who are downright jerks to his family. His ex-girlfriend used to refer to me as "the evil sister" and would steal my stuff. Whenever I'd walk into the apartment, she'd look at me and say, "What are YOU doing here?" Uh, I live here you stupid ****. I'm glad I live three hours away from them. I can avoid the drama as much as possible. My little brother has a bad temper though and I feel very protective of him. Hugs!

I think you're right. Even if I say anything, I don't think it's going to make a difference. I want to smack a bitch, but she's immature and doesn't have any idea what we're going through. Most of us have been coping well. My little brother just gets very upset when anyone mentions anything about mom... she doesn't seem to realize he was only 18 when our mom died. He was a baby and still is. He has to live in the house she lived in before she died, he is surrounded by her stuff 24/7. He was there when she died. This girlfriend of OB's is a real biatch. Who tells someone to get over their mom's death after only a couple of months? No idea. Ugh. It feels good to vent. Otherwise, I'd be on my way there to beat the shit out of her. I know that solves nothing, but I feel very protective of my LB.

Good enough reason for me! Fcukity fcuk fcuk. :)

Eeep, love these pictures! Keep 'em coming. :)

Hey everyone: I know this is not quitting related, but I'm feeling rather down and just need to vent. As some/most of you know, my mom died last year from a heartattack. It's been less than a year and some days are really tough. I just spoke to my little brother who got into a fight with my older brother and his girlfriend. I guess my OB had promised to visit my LB last weekend, but instead of showing up, he told my LB he had to work all weekend when really, he just drank all weekend with his buddies. My OB is an alcoholic. He numbs himself with alcohol. He wakes up in his sleep and chugs down a beer... that's how bad he is. After mom died, he felt a lot of guilt and used to drink himself stupid every night to the point where he couldn't even stand up. But anyway, my LB was obviously upset and told my OB to "**** off then." Well, OB's girlfriend got involved. She told my little brother that he was a loser who sits on his ass and lives off mom's life insurance. My OB told him he was "disappointed" in him because he's never had a job. This same girlfriend told my older brother to "get over" mom's death about 2-3 months after the funeral. Okay... so my 29-year-old brother and his 19-year-old girlfriend are disappointed in my little brother because he's never had a job, yet they live with my dad, don't pay rent/buy groceries, sit around and get drunk/high all day. Hypocrites much? Also, my mom doesn't even have life insurance. If anything, my step-dad and my little brother are worse off financially now that she's gone. I'm fuming. He told me not to say anything, but I want to rip them apart. It makes me so sad that his girlfriend always brings up my mom when she didn't even knew her.

I could totally watch this video over and over again. "Meow... Meow... Meow."

She's amazing. What a relief that was!

Why am I not surprised by this? Lol.

Hey Domingo, Not sure we've met, but welcome to QT!

Living with roommates is really fcuking hard sometimes. I feel like everyone's maid. These people are all in their late 20s and I shouldn't have to pick up after them. Gr!
