Momma Drama
My mom unexpectedly showed up on my doorstep the night before last. She was crying so hard she couldn’t speak. The first thing that went through my mind was something happened to my brother and it scared the hell out of me. After she calmed down a little, she told me she had a huge argument with my grandpa. I was relieved that was it.
Apparently, my grandpa has still being watching over her, trying to keep her in line. She’s sick of him doing that. She says she’s an adult and can take care of herself. I think she expected me to take her side and start bashing my grandpa. I didn’t.
I told her she doesn’t have the best reputation because her drug and gambling habits and I didn’t blame him for riding her ass. After all, she is living in his house and using his vehicle since she got hers impounded. Then I told her that he shouldn’t have to watch over her, but he feels like he has to because she is so damned self-destructive and he is just doing it because he loves her.

A Non-Celebratory Family Gathering
I just got home from a family gathering and cookout. We were supposed to be getting together to celebrate David’s release. However, it didn’t work out that way. The State fucked up David’s paperwork (surprise, surprise) and now they will not let him go until October 27th.
Instead of celebrating, we ended up watching the Presidential debate and spending time with my uncle Brad. He may be sent back to prison in the morning. He isn’t being charged with anything, but the State is trying to revoke his parole because some marijuana was found in his truck a couple years ago. They had charged him for it, but the charges were dismissed. I don’t understand how they can revoke his parole if he wasn’t prosecuted for the marijuana. I hope that his attorney will be able to get the revocation dropped as well.
The State is about to release my brother after keeping him for almost seven years, now they want my uncle for eight years. Bastards. There are violent criminals out there running free, but they want to put my uncle in prison for eight years because he had an ounce of marijuana in his truck… anyone else see something wrong with that?
