DAMMIT, LMNO, WHERE'S MY SLACK™?

You guys need to either 1) live closer to your relatives or 2) get weirder relatives.

Because for real, all I have to do is visit MINE for a 24-hour period, and I have enough of the WEIRD for about a month or two.  OR invite them HERE...so my neighbors can listen to howling and various other cackles of fiendish delight and metallic banging until 5 am or the sun rises/whichever comes first.

I need #2. I am the weirdest out of my family, and on a weird scale of 1-10 I'm a 4 on a good day.

There are varying standards of weird.

True, very true.

I had a GREAT "standard" of weird the other night.  Sat with a delirious 83 year old who had degenerated into a 5 year old.  A NAUGHTY 5 year old.  So flipso-facto when your grandmother has to be held like a child and stroked to get to eat and take her medicine, or you have to keep her from hitting and flipping off the nursing staff. 

Sigh.

Some weird I can REALLY do without.

Oh, no.

She's being declared mentally incompetent today, but that's a good thing.  She can't keep having mini-seizures, falling and breaking something all the time.  It's no way for a person to live, shitting and pissing themselves, and then not able to get up and get cleaned, forgetting to take meds and eat, etc.

She's been in this state for a while, but my aunts have been refusing to get her into a home or get a 24/7 nurse...you know, for her DIGNITY.  Because having the firemen see her naked on the floor in a pool of her own urine is so very, you know, DIGNIFIED, when they eventually call 911.
