That's the way it goes
Monday, November 16, 2009 About to head to bed, they're dropping off the niece tomorrow morning.
Uncle Joey needs his 7 to 8 hours sleep, not pleasant when he's all cranky.
This blog entry isn't exciting.
Taking Tuesday off to babysit my niece, my family is going to the cousins wedding. Even though they have numerously extended the invitation to me, I am not attending. I've not seen them in so many years, what would make them think suddenly I will go to the wedding. My parents had to beg me just to go to my brother's wedding, let alone my cousins. These are the cousins on my father's side. The cousins parents and one of the brothers live in Israel the other two three live here. All together 4 sons in the family.
One of the cousins said to my sister that it's unfortunate that I don't want to go to the wedding because I'm ashamed of my sexuality, I am sure my sister gave them that idea. And I said Whoooaa, hold on a minute you got that twisted. I don't give a rat's ass what they or anyone think of my sexuality. Get the facts straight! I've not seem them in so many years, maybe 10 years or so. And suddenly they want me to go to their wedding?? I don't think so, I don't work that way. Suddenly they wonder where I've been all this time and always ask about me. Keep asking. It ain't happening.
Anyway, It's a lot of fun taking care of the niece and I look forward to it, she's a work of art and has a colourful personality. She's only 19 months and is already a clean freak, she likes to take brooms, tries to take wipes and clean. Just adorable. I'm sure she will be bossing her brother around, my sister found out today she's expecting a boy in a few months. It's just perfect, 2 kids, it will be 1 girl and 1 boy, 1 American and 1 Canadian. Just like the parents. Now isn't that cute.
If you wonder why I act the way I do towards family, if you just knew my family, you'll understand why. It's unfortunate, but hey, you can't change your family. Well, you can if another family adopts you or something.
One thing I might be doing is going to some food and wine expo this weekend. Now that would be fun, packing on all the pounds is harsh because it's painful on the machines to burn but hey you live once.
Enjoy it!.
