Regeneration

So in the interests of maintaining a slight level of entertainment, I'm replacing the competitive writing aspect with blogging for a while, or at least going to try to. The whole he said, she said scenario really kills off any and all form of fun anyways. On the plus side, we're being civil now that he sees where I'm coming from so all is well on that front, even if I am still leaving.

Grandma's spending the weekend here with Uncle Matt. For those of you still new to this, he suffered brain damage from hospital negligence so, she's been raising him ever since. We're still slightly on edge since the last time she came to visit is pretty much when we first got Felix and Brianna so the correlation seems a little too coincidental.

Went out for lunch today with Sam, still being sociable like after last nights trip with Mom I suppose. That, and I felt like going for Chinese anyways. Am I the only one that feels bad for them though? I can't do the whole eating in a real restaurant part, I see them too much as real people and so it seems more like I'm eating at a friends kind of thing. Somehow, saying thank you for every little thing and then paying for it seems odd. Granted, they are a place of business but since they are still friends of my sister's, then I'm obligated to pay more in the form of a tip. I liked it better before I knew what tipping was. Why should I have to pay for something and then pay more because it was good? Shouldn't it have been good in the first place, hence why I paid for it?

My boss was kind enough to send me a message on Facebook letting me know that there are two people work this weekend. Since I'm back Saturday night, I'm hoping she wasn't counting me as one of those two. Oddly enough, she hasn't responded yet as to how on earth that was allowed to happen. So needless to say, there goes my shot of being on days if they can't even put together a crew in my absence.
