Rough day.

[oooo35980]

So the wife and I are staying with in-laws currently. Today sucked more than a little, my MIL got drunk in the middle of the day and proceeded to stumble around the house all afternoon, which for some reason puts the FIL in a criticizing mood. He very nearly made my wife cry when she got home, criticizing how she cares for our son. It's been such a lousy day I decided to come outside for a cigar at 10pm.

All of a sudden from across the street someone starts up with a band practice or something, which would annoy the hell out me ordinarily. These guys are actually good though, I didn't recognize the first song, the melody was soothing but I couldn't quite hear the lyrics. Then came an instrumental rendition of Folsom Prison Blues, which I would recognize anywhere, and then they stopped. I could feel myself cheering up and starting to smile as they played. I don't know who they are but I can't help but be thankful for the guys across the street in their garage, who played 2 songs and called it a night, right when I needed it.

Time to check out of their house and into a hotel. When they ask why, tell them. They are adults and should treat you like accordingly.

My experience with sh!tty days is that there is always a better one on the horizon. And it makes you forget the crappy one.

On a bright note yesterday was (Finally) the last straw for my wife, I talked her into quitting her summer job early so we could go ahead and move to Alabama. We'll be out of here on Monday instead of waiting til July.

[Ogre]

Do what's right for you brother!!!

Make sure that you leave with all your cards on the table. There is truly no reason to destroy a family even if they can be an a$$ at times. No matter what family will always understand ( even if it takes a long time for them to come around).
