ADDson#1 thought he had us...

My lil sissy and I have reached our boiling points with ADDson#1. Either he is retarded or we are--I'm betting that me and lil sissy are the "special" ones here...you be the judge

I pay his:

  • health, dental and vision insurance $96/month
  • jail fees & fines $125/month for God knows how long - got stopped w/Mary Jane in the car
  • default school loan $60/month - from first college go round
  • current college tuition $700/semester
  • his child (my grandson) multi-cultural daycare (they teach foreign languages) $250/month is my portion
  • bought his car $2400
  • replaced motor in said car = $2500
  • Cleats 2 pair plus gloves = $200
  • Cell phone bill = $50/month (when he does not go over his minutes)

Lil sissy pays

  • car insurance = $60/month
  • gas money = $150/month
  • groceries to feed his big 6'7, 300 lb ass
  • Merry Maids to come clean her house including his room = $150/month
  • Books & Tuition - based on semester classes
  • Helps him maintain his documents (because as a person with ADD, he loses or misplaces everything) - so she really is his unpaid personal ASSistant

He does not ask for anything extra, but shit he shouldn't...look at all this shit that hes into us for already. We would not have to bitch about anything, if he acted like he gave a fuck...I know he appreciates it, but damn...show us by always studying, requesting extra credit, asking us if he could help out someway, be considerate of his cell minutes, work a PT job to supplement his child's expenses...hell I didn't fuck his baby momma, why do I get the phone calls for every need/want.

Well the shit hit the fan...Effective December 31, 2007

  • His celly will be turned off job or not - get one in his own damn name.
  • If he does not pass his current classes, I will not pay for the next semester Hope he got a back-up plan
  • pay his own fines/fees or don't...and save us all some money by going back to jail - hell I ain't chiefed in a few years (cough, cough), he did the crime, now he'll pay or do the time.
  • Will no longer receive room cleaning services - properly maintain room and stop being TRIFLING
  • Pay rent - show your aunt that you appreciate her help - or get in yo own shit
  • Take your ADD medicine on a regular basis so that you can stay focused and on task

The bottom line is that he needs a job so that he can pay for his own shit, damn he's 23...what 23 year old wants to be fussed at over and over about the same shit...hes a grown ass man right?

  1. Men, what did it take for you to leave the nest - mainly the 2nd time (my son left at 18 but did not like the big bad world and came running home at 21)...now he's back in a safe, comfortable environment and doesn't want to be responsible....HELP...
  2. or Women that were successful in removing a mans ass from your furniture...How?

College life isnt the same

I dropped out of school when I was 15 - I thought I was grown when I got pregnant; I got my GED when I was 20, and went to College the "first" time soon there after. It was a community College and I completed 12 hours before my last baby daddy got shot (by his latest babies mommas girlfriend during a domestic dispute). When that happened, I dropped out of College (because I needed to go get my baby - he had him for the summer and plus I had just cashed my financial aid check).

I then began working at a prestigious company in my home town, where I rapidly advanced up the corporate ladder. I took several correspondence courses and such, but never had that degree.

So now I'm back in school...the way this go-round happened was, I received a pamphlet in the mail about this new program for people that received medical assistance from the state (Medicaid) could possibly go for free. I signed up, completed all my paperwork, got my schedule and the Friday before school started, I received a call from the program administrator telling me essentially that I was tripping...my income the previous year was more than hers and I needed to find another way to pay for school or "drop out before I started". WTF? What educator discourages you from getting an education. I could not believe it. Being the rebel that I am, when you tell me NO, I'm going to do it somehow...I applied for a school loan (grants said no because of previous income too). I received the loan and am enrolled.

What I quickly noticed is that school has changed alot. Or rather this school has. I currently live in the south, but was raised a state above (up north). The level of common sense in my current state is horribly low. I am always surprised by people that can instantly tell that "I'm not from here", simply because I speak differently (IE in a complete sentence).

I am carrying 15 hours this semester and have an A in every class. Not that I'm so smart, not that I go above and beyond, not that I try hard - its just the curriculum is set up to not allow anyone to fail no matter how hard you try. I'm not trying to fail...I just procrastinate and put forth very little effort...I would be happy with a C...but these people, teachers, students make me feel and look like a genius.

When did it become acceptable for the students to wear pajamas to class? or for the teacher to say during a MID-term to go check your answer with ADDMWS, I'm sure hers is done and right? The only class that has been somewhat of a challenge was accounting...so much so that I had to buy "Accounting for Dummies" after receiving my first test grade of D. Its all in the debits and credits. I received my test score yesterday and it was 198/200. I'm sure the rest of the class probably scored the same or close to it because they were instructed to VERIFY their answers with mine. What happened to our educational system? Teacher pay is so low that they don't give a fuck? Or so many teachers fucking the kids? this litigious nation that we live in has them scared to be different and fail Johnny when the shit is wrong.

I have seen so many passes given to kids, its ridiculous. My Comp teacher informed the class about the finals schedule the other day and everybody in class was complaining about having to take a FINAL!!! This is College, ain't that shit supposed to happen?

I could not believe it. I'm in shock! Also, now I have to write a paper on Dean Koontz (my favorite author) with a partner. I don't like that because my level of effort has been proven to be different than others - they make my procrastination look like I'm on top of shit. I guess its obvious to others because I had 10 people ask me to be my partner (cause they know I'm not going to turn in bullshit)...I chose this one lady who was the least of the evils that I had to choose from, but then we got stuck with this guy (who NOBODY else wanted to partner with and who I'M sure is there on some type of learning disability waiver). We met last week and he informed the group that he was failing every class - HOW in this easy ass school - you must really don't give a fuck or you really are retarded! I think he does not give a fuck because he did not even bother to show up for our next meeting...me and my charity cases!

I'm taking all online classes next semester, because the sight of these hicks is too much to handle consecutively.
