I think advice from a successful dater who's not particularly handsome would have plenty of credibility. Most of us are average looking. Which is, after all, why they call it average.

Dating advice from Brad Pitt or George Clooney would be worthless.

Watched Duel ('71) again, just to see Weaver turning around a hundred times to check where the Peterbilt is forgetting he has a rear view mirror.

This is the path.

Then get their groceries, take them back and put them up, then go to a different place to get his insulin, then back later to pick up his medicine that I had dropped off earlier.

Yesterday was Dialysis..and that will happen 3X a week. Dr.'s appointment today, and one scheduled each week for the next 5 weeks with different specialties.

And then I have to check on them constantly because I'm scared I am missing something.
I feel your pain and you sentiment that when it rains it pours. Up until two years ago, I lived across the street from my parents. I have two sisters that also live close but because they have families and I do not, I was the primary. I did the food shopping, ate with them every night. Mom was withdrawing and deteriorating but gradual. I picked up the slack. I moved 2 years ago so my sisters stepped up. Mom went downhill fast over the past two years. Fast forward, dad just finished radiation last month. Mom just got out of hospital a few weeks ago from pneumonia. She had no will to live or do anything to help herself. Dad distraught. My two sisters have been feeding them at night. Aides were there round the clock but parents pushed back they don’t want anyone there. Cut back to 8-4. But that left feeding them and clean up to us. One sister was bearing the brunt of it.

Yesterday, my sweet 16 year old niece was diagnosed with stage 3 lymphoma. She had a mass in her chest, will need chemo and radiation and need to ne home schooled. All our efforts and energy need to be put towards supporting my sister. I increased the aides to cover until 9pm and my parents are freakin they don’t want people in the house. WTF? I’m putting my house up for sale so I can be closer. I’m numb. My poor niece. She’s fucking 16. This isn’t supposed to happen. I can’t. My father is pissed as he feels out of control. My mother is fragile, on oxygen, we just had a chair lift installed on steps. She needs professionals to monitor her but the reality is hitting dad as is the loss of independence. Someone shoot me.

Sorry for rant and any typos. I slept there last night, woke up at 2:00 and couldn’t go back to sleep. I’m fried. I’m numb. I can’t process this. I love my parents. My niece is 16. She requires all the support right now.

It's a trade off, either i shave and need to show my passport, or don't shave and get a free prostate exam when they see the turkish passport

jokes aside i've never been "randomly selected", I also never grow a beard it's just some 5 o clock shadow but better safe than violated!

I always get randomly selected for some reason. But then again I can shave and have 5:00 shadow 2 hours later.

I'm so sorry for all the pain and chaos that life is throwing your way. I'll be faced with taking care of my mom one day, and I'm an only child so I won't have any backup. She's 80 and in amazing health but she'll eventually need help.

Be strong and keep us posted.

Today I'm working in a high school on a wireless internet project. I spent a considerable amount of time working in the library with one of our engineers. During that time we overheard the following conversation (keep in mind these kids are 14) and I had a hard time not LOL'ing.

Kid 1: "Dude, do you know Ashley so and so"

Kid 2: "No, what does she look like?"

Kid 1: "blonde hair, kinda fat and annoying... sucks all the football players dicks"

Kid 2: "Oh her? Yeah she's in my block 4 class"

A third kid chimes in:

Kid 3: "Dude shes def not fat"

Kid 1: "Yes she is bro, she has like a beer gut"

The engineer and I just gave each other the WTF look.

Very sorry to hear this, going to be emotionally draining for sure, but you are there and you are being a support and kudos to you for being there when its tough. It will be appreciated even if not always said.

No one deserves cancer (well I guess there are some people I might make exceptions for, Jeffrey Epstein would be one if he was guilty of all of that he was accused of), but particularly hard in someone so young with so much ahead of her.

Take care of yourself too though, recharge too so you can be there fully when you are there.

Does anyone else not stop at the receipt checker in places like Best Buy or Walmart? I do at Costco, because it's part of the membership agreement... But I just breeze right past the dude at Best Buy with a wave and a 'No thanks' when they ask to see my receipt. It started happening at Walmart recently, and no way I'm stopping for that.
