I'm just ... me. And this quote, from John le Carre, really resonates with me: "Coming home from very lonely places, all of us go a little mad: whether from great personal success, or just an all-night drive, we are the sole survivors of a world no one else has ever seen."

These are the thoughts that keep you alive

Rate: 11 Flag

So, in December of 2008 my maternal uncle was back in the pokey. Now that I look back I realize that the only time he intentionally reaches out to me is when he is locked up. Hmm. Food for thought, no?

Even though he IS blood there are times, more often than not, that I want to just bean him. Wallop him, and his zombie girlfriend who also is sucking off the teet staying here. (Seriously. Her given name is Dawn, and around these here parts, she is referred to as "Dawn of the Dead". Meth? It is NOT kind to you.)

Anyway, this evening Harry and I were going back and forth, and he mentioned that I should write about my "criminal uncle". Since internet access in prison is spotty at best, and orange is a HORRIBLE colour for a redhead, these are the thoughts that keep me keepin' on. (And keep me keepin' myself out of prison, and out of following in father's footsteps.)

Following, for your edification, are some of the thoughts that keep me from murderalizing my uncle. PLEASE feel free to add your own thoughts in the comments.

To start off, Harry offers this random statement to mutter to my uncle, just to keep him on his toes: "Internet access is the only thing keeping you alive!"

Mine? This is what I wish I could say, out loud, just to make him them wonder ...

"There's not enough bleach in the world that could cover up my actions thoughts."

"Too bad I'm not conversant with the most recent forensic techniques. C'mon, CSI, help me out here! (And why, oh why, did you have to kill off Warrick? Bastards.)"

"Stupid alibi has tickets to the Jonas Brothers."

"I wonder if I could start my own pig farm ... "

"Why does there have to be airbags on both sides??"

The orange factor...yeah, that's huge.
i would bet there's never enough hot water for a great shower in there.
Nice post. Stay sane and don't go to the Orange Side!

"I wonder how much blood has gone down that shower drain?"
The thread count on prison sheets isn't good for the skin. Better to stay where you are.
Don't communicate with your uncle when he's in prison or anytime he's just using you. Don't be an enabler.
A kind of burnt orange works pretty well for The Redhead. Maybe you could address the prison's fashion faux pas. Or maybe not.

In all seriousness, I'm with Patricia. Keep away from the jackass(es).
I wish my clever bone were engaged today, but it seems to be MIA. Instead, I will send good energy and clarity your way - ya' know - virtually.
