A LOT has happened.......he went to the Middle East, served his time
came home, burned out on cooking for now (got tired of opening cans and
calling it cooking.....open big can of potato flakes, dump them in a
cement mixer, add hot water and call it mashed potatoes). He's home
now, for good, working in the non-food industry to catch up and get
$$$. The girlfriend he married before he shipped out, then he had the
misfortune not to get killed and leave her and her illegal immigrant
boyfriend a pension for life (she ACTUALLY told me this, wanna know why
I wouldn't blink if I ran over her), so she left him. Now he's back
home with mom chafing at the thought of being back under mom and dad's
roof, with a tour of duty and a divorce under his belt. We told him it
is only a matter of time and money, soon he can be his own man again.
As for her, she is waiting tables, and calling him for money since her
boyfriend du jour can't legally work and she has to support him (she's
on the fourth since he came home). She quit school since her 'then
boyfriend' didn't want 'his ho smarter than him'. Joe treated her
better, but if that's what she wants, he's better off without her.
I have left Wallyworld and now work at a King's (supermarket) in the
Deli (yes, I am now a deli drone). Hopefully this is only temporary.
My daughter got really sick in October and spent two months in the
hospital (Type 1 diabetes in the house now) and Wally was SOOOO
generous, they told me THEY were my family, and she could go to hell.
Guess who I told to go to hell...........so given the opportunity to
shop at Wallyworld, I won't darken their door now.
Yes, I remember the honey fight.....my favorite memory is filling an
album cover with whipped cream and slipping it under GaryO's door and
stomping on it......hopefully there aren't too many newbies that don't
understand that as CD covers just don't cut the mustard.
It's good to be back.
