Primo: Are you picking at your chin hairs?
Me: Yes.
Primo: Just like my picking at my nose hairs.
Me: No. Not just like at all.
Primo: It is the same thing.
Me: No.
Primo: Yes.
Me: There is a huge difference between rubbing your chin and sticking your fingers in your nose.

In which I acknowledge the lack of drama in my life and admit that it makes for very poor reading
You guys, I know this blog has been dull, dull, dull lately.
Part of it is because Ted is leaving Primo alone (although that won't last long I'm sure).
Part of it is because the Sly and Doris-related drama has to do with Primo's nieces and nephews and whether he should release money to them or not. I say he should resign as trustee so he does not even have to deal with this stuff, but my words fall on deaf ears.
I don't write about my nieces and nephew and their requests because they are such nice kids and there is no malice in what they are doing and there is no reason to discuss them publicly. And they have not done anything wrong. They would like some financial help and they are shy about asking Primo directly for the money but he has made it clear that they, not their dad, need to do the asking, and once they get over their fear, they have done so.
I don't even know why they would be afraid to ask him for anything - there is nothing in their history for them ever to be afraid. He is the uncle who takes them bowling or plays Trivial Pursuit with them when he is in town, but maybe the money is making them a little weird?
They don't even know how much they have. They have not asked. The two older kids have been working since tenth grade and are very clearly prepared to make it on their own; the younger one has just graduated from high school and is figuring things out.
The other part of why I have not been writing is because Lord Have Mercy writing is work.
I stopped writing my other blog because I was getting too tired. And I have been taking a break on this one because I am lazy. That's the real truth. Even when I don't have anything to write about, I can write. But it's hard. And I am lazy.
But.
I will be starting again soon. There is new Ted drama to come AND Primo is running for office again.
No. That was not in our wedding vows.
Either one, actually.
No Ted. No political campaigns.
Hmm. Do I get a do over?
