I LIIIIIIIIVE!

[yuichen]

Lol well at least you were away

It never really amounted to much here. There was a little in the mornings but it was always gone by midday. Tired of the cooler weather though...

[ravencries]

I was actually sitting locked outside of the van when it started to snow.
My friend couldn't wait for me to get out of the shop, or hand me the effing keys when he went to the bathroom.

[yuichen]

That sucks :/

[ravencries]

It really did, and now he's being a dick and acting like I did something wrong.

[yuichen]

Boys -.-

Going to see the sprog soon?

[ravencries]

Sadly no idea on that front.
My car is getting sold so I can pay medical bills as my job doesn't provide enough money to be able to pay off the one I am working on in November.

I'm also working on weekends again, so I might not get to go any time soon since the guys don't work on weekends.

[yuichen]

Man, that sucks all around!

[ravencries]

Yep, unless the guys wanna drive up and back in the same night so I can get to work the next day.
We're trying to find them a car.

[yuichen]

Hope you find something

In the meantime maybe your girl can take a day trip to see you?

[ravencries]

The whole car thing a need first and foremost.
But I'm gonna try going up soon hopefully.
I get pictures all the time.

[yuichen]

Man he's gonna be 2 months soon o.O Doesn't really seem like it was that long ago.

[ravencries]

Omg...
I didn't even think of that.

[yuichen]

Goes fast :/ I remember when my oldest nephew was born (he was the only for several years). He spent a lot of time with my parents and I because my brother and the mom split up, and we had to fight for visitations on weekends. Anyway, I loved that kid to death and hogged him, but before I knew it he was a year old and I just couldn't believe it. Now he's almost 16 and towers over me D:

[ravencries]

It does go by fast.
My brothers ex has custody of their son as well, and he moved across the country to be away from her at a loss.
When we do see my nephew he's different every time.

[yuichen]

I can imagine. How sad I'm sure it wasn't easy for him to do.

My brother eventually had two more kids with his ex wife but I never really got to know them. Although I only live about an hour and a half away, we never really managed to get together as a family often. I think the last time was the Christmas after the youngest was born, and he's now... 9? My parents knew the kids because my mom watched them when they were little, but everyone else pretty much only saw pictures and knew their names. So when my dad died and we got together I basically met them for the first time all over again. My niece is a little stand off-ish, naturally, but the boy seems like a pretty comfortable kid. He's a little guy and I secretly hope he'll be the other hobbit sized person in the family >.> As odd as I feel when I'm around them I'm glad we're getting to know each other, even if it took losing my dad for it to happen. Silver linings I guess?

Wow, I really rambled.
