OK...
so a friend of mine came over tonight to pick up a bike for his wife's oldest child ( she's in college,he's just her stepdad). He married a woman with 5 kids by various men- all her kids are awesome and i love them to death as does he.
so with that out of the way, since they've gotten married, she has gotten progressively crazier. some sort of weird dominance or hormone issues that i don't know how any one could put up with...
anyway,
he comes to pick up a bike,we drink a beer while we stand in the cold,load the bike up and talk ( 1 beer each) and as he is leaving ( he walks out of the house while i grab my jacket) she pulls in to the driveway with two kids in the vehicle and i guess is having it out with him in the driveway - when i walk out she starts yelling at me about how "if he wants to come over here and get drunk, he can just stay here" and "how can he do this to her kids 3 days before christmas" and how "he can just stay here now as far as i'm concerned".............
so i'm fairly dumbfounded, not expecting any of this, and not usually having this sort of drama at my house. not to mention, noone was anywhere near being drunk and he was the one that brought the 2 beers we drank over the hour that he was here.I just kind of laughed it off at first as she said all this and then ran and got in her vehicle and squealed her tires leaving ( really! squealed tires in a hyundai suv!!! i didn't know that was posssible??) but, the more i thought about it, the more incensed i became about being berated on my own property for something i didn't do.
The more i think about it, the more i think she must be a sociopath. If i was to say something like that, in that tone to someone on their own property with no basis in fact, i would fully expect to get punched in the mouth ,repeatedly untill i apologized or the punchee got tired of punching me. Maybe i was just raised old fashioned, but you don't speak ill of a man's family, or berate him on his own property unless you are prepared for whatever he dishes out.Is that wrong?
anyway,
I'm in high spirits and frankly pretty happy regardless. a dear friend sent me a really nice pair of studio monitors for christmas ( my old teacs were getting pretty long in the tooth) and i dislocated my thumb installing them. they have a dedicated rack mount amp and i installed it with no help and as i was racking it up, the weight shifted and bent my thumb backwards to my wrist - i had to pull it out with the other hand and pop it back in socket but, i guess it's not broken as it's still moving. Hurts like hell but, is still working
at any rate, the monitors sound amazing and I'm almost caught up with work.I'm really looking forward to spending time with my dogs and family and just relaxing in general.
