    Default It's 4 am...do you know where

    YOUR FIL is?? I do, because he called us...,did I mention, at 4 AM He's at the Denny's. Drunk outta his mind. Enjoying a Rootie Tootie Fresh and Fruity.

    Just ducky. I know it's TMI. I know, but it's 4 55 am and I am on little sleep. I have to have a barium enema tomorrow morning, so today I have to do the prep kit today. Today is NOT the day to tick me off.

    He'd better watch it. I am not in a happy missy mode.

    Would you say are in a crappy mood, then?

    Sorry to hear about your FIL. My FIL is an alcoholic and it really stinks. Most of the time he's a "happy drunk" but sometimes I could gleefully throttle him. They don't seem to get how their behaviour affects everyone else, do they?

    I hope the rest of your day goes more smoothly.

    Been there, done that. I was awakened at 4 a.m. one morning by a phone call from my mother saying my father had awakened her at 2 a.m. by making a ruckus in the bathroom. She found him standing in a pool of blood, trying to mop it up with a towel. He had drunk his esophagus raw, and started bleeding from his mouth. I didn't own a car, had to wait for the 7 a.m. bus to get to the hospital. He almost died that time.

    Yep, I understand completely.
