It was a Tom Cruise movie with lots of action and random violence, although somewhat written by my favorite sci-fi author.  I shook the whole time the movie was on, totally overwhelmed, and hoped that nobody would notice me shaking.  Afterwards I panicked in the parking lot about whether my mom would take all of the toxic pills that my dad refused to put out of her reach.<br \/>\ni feel like that now.<br \/>\nI couldn&#8217;t keep my mom safe.  i couldn&#8217;t make things work with christi.  i can&#8217;t garuntee that ellen won&#8217;t be cast into fast food jobs.  i can&#8217;t cant cant do anything. cant do anything but sit here, tiwtiching, blog posting.<br \/>\nI think &#8220;i&#8217;m an asshole,&#8221; but then i think it&#8217;s been stressful lately, &#8220;this is not who i am.&#8221;  well, then who the hell am i? i am a failure in relationship.  i am someone who lures people here with false promises of working space, then shows up unexpectedly, has a major crisis, acts like an ass, is unable to deliver the promised work space and is totally incabable of dealing with the stress.  i can&#8217;t go to the dmv without having to breathe deeply the whole time.  but, hey, maybe this is not who i am.  maybe there is a capable human lurking deep somewhere, maybe out for a holiday, maybe getting a bite for lunch, maybe hiding under the bed.<br \/>\nthese woes aren&#8217;t even that bad, not like mom swallowing a pile of god-knows-what in the middle of the night.  (thank god she never got into the pills.  i did not hysterically go insist in the middle of the night that something be done.  i can&#8217;t remember how this was resolved.)  why can&#8217;t i function?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>more the hoa board president just came over and related concerns of people who are trying to sell their places and how the temporary structure might affect them. so we&#8217;ve got three yes votes and 11 probable nos.
