So, as many of you may or may not know, I am Daddywho. Yes, the poor, hapless, meat popsicle married to the always too smart for her own good Mamawho. Like many of you, I was here for the beginning of OS, and I too for a time was elevated into Made status in the Mafia. But, this week I am in phucking hell.

 

In an odd chance of fate, I somehow get paid to write but suck at it, while Mamawho, who can turn a phrase that makes rocks cry, does not. Even after much coaching, I still feel like those chain smoking chimps in the Ives play, clanging away at the keyboard in a feeble attempt to create Hamlet, but end up just flinging poop.

 

This week, I corrected my latest bad habit/mistake (hedging, i.e. writing around the problem, which is also called making shit up and avoiding the truth) only to have it chopped, or rather planted before national release. I gave them the Sahara, and the returned to me a rain forest. There's so many hedges, I don't even remember what the story was about in the first place. Oh yeah, RAPE. Because we don't say that, it's a dirty word, and that doesn't happen. Okay campers, soap box time:

 

1. When a guy gets shot in war, he is never questioned what the hell he was doing some place like that. If a woman is raped, they always question. Like she fing asked for it!

 

2. When a guy gets shot, he has a 10% chance of getting PTSD, when a woman is raped, she has a 56% of getting PTSD.

 

3. When a guy gets shot, he's a hero, gets a medal, and is looked up to. When a woman gets raped, she gets punished, questioned, and cast and eventually aside or out all together.

 

Last but not least, we just put a guy down. Slam dunk on all counts. Rape, sodimy, etc.etc. He was a good friend of the victim, got her drunk, and assaulted her. And yes, he had tried it before only with a different girl. The court gave him 4 MONTHS. That's 120 DAYS for RAPE. The following case, dude gets popped for dope (enough for maybe a dozen joints or so) and gets 6 MONTHS.

 

Welcome to my Hell...and how is your day?

Jesus. And I've been whining about a baby who won't nap and a hip joint that won't stay in place. You people are my heroes.
Oh my god. Just witnessing all of that is fucking traumatic FF. I hope you're taking care of yourself.
McG-Yeah, I am. Sort of. I talked to a friend of mine and came up with some ideas on how to decompress after work, I also see a theripist, garden, make kids time the best it can be, and try to remember that not all of humanity sucks. I am also thinking of taking a mental health day(a day off)- most weeks I work 7 days a week. I am thinking it's about time I take a little time for me.
