Fuck, man.

I know it doesn't really help when people offer advice in these situations, nor their anger (no matter how genuine and/or visceral), so I will just hug you tightly and protectively as much as I can via internet and I can't stop myself from reiterating my offer.

I'm just saying. Nothing bad, just gone. Better for him, even. Certainly much better for you and your fam.

But whatever you choose, I'm with you. Stay safe, honey. Remember you have people that love you and are looking out for you.
You so don't deserve (well, DUH) to have to live with this fucktard.

I really REALLY appreciate all of the support you've given every time I go on a poorly-edited rant against him. You have no idea how much it means just to hear those words. How cathartic it is to feel like it's okay to feel like this (hence the title ( ... )

Wait... you're supposed to edit rants? Isn't that why they're called rants, silly lady? And Jesus, look at my fuckin' journal (and, unfortunately, a high percentage of my e-mails to you)! Dear Gods, if there was a way I could put it into the crappily drawn overdue (really, REALLY sorry, again :^( ) cards I send, I'm sure I would ( ... )

Yes, and they all adhere perfectly to the rules of grammar and usage; and the talent made apparent in your cards--not to mention the effort and essence put into them--somebody out there needs to wake up and pay attention. You already have so much experience, and you're giving yourself a full education on all aspects of the graphic novel, just with a library card.

Oh, and by the way, you don't throw crimoar bitchfest/pity parties; least of all when you're mourning somebody you've known for over half your life. (*tries to do the math*... I think.)I really appreciate your support (well, duh). What also kind of helps (though in a "I-wish-it-weren't-happening" kind of way) is that my friend is going through a similar situation with her parents. So, it's like every thought and concern I bring up, she can completely relate. I told her how worried I was about taking away Grandma's dignity and if it was making her feel depressed and resigned ( ... )

We don't know each super well, but I'm so sorry you're in this situation and I'd do a lot to try to get you out of it. I hope the cops get involved soon to show him out the only way that might get through to him.

Thank you so much. It honestly means a lot just to get reassurance. And, hah, we'd know each other better if I'd reply once in a while! I always read your entries, it's just I can't think of anything to say that isn't stupid. ahem, anyway...

I hope the cops get involved soon to show him out the only way that might get through to him.It's funny you should say that because the first time my cousin had ever met him, she turned to me and said, "That guy is only going to leave the house in a pair of handcuffs." I don't know how many more times we'll have to endure his drunken escapades before somebody calls the police AND allows them to follow through. He's afraid of law enforcement (having been arrested several times), but he responds more to being ignored or left behind. And I'd really rather not think of it this way, but maybe since my grandmother's failing health has drawn everyone's attention away from him, maybe he'll consider leaving ( ... )
