Karma just kicked me in the nuts. Typed 2 things above about my dad. Five minutes ago the phone rang, at 5:10 a.m. He wants me to come over and pick him up off the floor- he weighs 27o to my 160. It's collld out.
I haven't taken any meds yet. I told him to grab pillows and extra blankets and get comfortable til I get there. "Dad, it's 5 am"
"I don't care what time it is"
-Clearly.
I want to help him up, and will, but gosh- the motorized contraptions in small proximity and the sloth and gothic demands before daylight, even. What for?
See, I would just make myself as comfortable as possible on the floor if it were me. Lots of pillows and fur throws, plus if he really thought about it, he'd find a way back on to his scooter or bed. Am I supposed to cripple myself lifting him?
He can't walk anyway, what the ef difference does it make where he lays, sits, or slobs around?
Call ME in the dead of night. Stop typing, bad son. Your mother's husband has bellowed.
Fat ****.
Update: Reprieve, of sorts. Was pulling out of my driveway to go to their house, when I saw an ambulance leaving their driveway. After dad first hung up with me, my mom called 911 and they made it there in 10 minutes to my 15, and lifted him back onto the scooter. I called him from the cell: "Yeah, they just left, go back to sleep, don't come over."
Brrr. Thank you Mom, and thank you 911. It took me 15 minutes to type most of the above, get dressed, change my socks, sip 4 swigs of coffee and down an adderall, and a minute to badly scrape off the windshield with defrosters running. Sigh. Better 911's back than mine.
Back in bed with the baby girlcat. Think I will pop 'Mommie Dearest' into the dvd player. Too bad my dad isn't famous. I could write a **** of a movie based on my 4000 years of being his son.

Dude. I don't know you at all. But it doesn't seem like the situation you're in, caring for your parents, is working well for either you or them. It seems really unhealthy. Lately, your posts have mostly contained references to how often you're taking your drugs and when the next time you can take them is. Maybe you should look into alternative arrangements and find someone with whom you can talk these issues through.

Having cared for my Mom, for two years, while she was dying of cancer, I can attest that it wears you down. Especially as the disease progresses, and the care becomes more intensive. And it's a very guilty feeling, to admit that it's a relief of sorts, when it's over. But it is. Losing that stress in your life, is so liberating. Of course you miss your loved one, but god, that stress can be unbearable, sometimes.
My aunt and I did everything, and when it was all over, she made her kids promise, to never do Hospice at home, with her. Because it was just too difficult for us, especially at the end.

If YOU'RE singing it, it wouldn't be "Linda Ronstadt's", she just covered it...but, you'd still be covering the Everly Brothers' song.

1. What are your initials? - JRD

2. What is your favorite thing to wear? - Clothes! LOL... don't really have anything favorite to wear.

3. Last thing you ate? - A few Chex (corn & rice) dipped in Nudossi (a hazelnut/chocolate spread..similar to Nutella).. very healthy, eh? It was just a snack with a cup of coffee, since I had a terrible headache. I only drink black coffee, but I like to have a little something sweet with it. The Nudossi was a gift from a friend in Germany.

4. One place you will NEVER eat at? - I don't think I have one.. I suppose maybe street food in India, since a) I probably won't ever get the chance to go there and b) my digestive tract would not be happy (although I do love good Indian food!)

5. I say Shotgun, you say: be my guest.

6. Last person you hugged? - My mom.

7. Does anyone you know wanna date you? - I sincerely doubt it.

8. Would you date anyone you met online? - I might given the right circumstances.

9. Name something you like physically about yourself: my eyes.

10. The last place you went out to dinner to? - Chili's.

11. Who is your best friend? - My mom. Other than family, a friend I've known since 6th grade.

12. What time of the day is it? - Mid-afternoon.

13. Who/What made you angry today? - I am working on looking for a job, and having posted a resume online, I keep receiving e-mails about random sales job positions for various life insurance companies, which is completely irrelevant to me... in addition, I believe they are scams to recruit people to pay for training. In one case, it looks like they target senior citizens to sell life insurance to by cold-calling... while of course not illegal, seems unethical and something I would never consider being a part of.

14. Baseball or Football? - Baseball... but not a fan of either. Ping-pong, anyone?

15. Ever gone skinny dipping? - Nope... and never would.

16. Favorite type of Food? - Always loved fresh fruit... but also love cheese, and as far as protein goes, BEEF all the way! Although nuts (especially almonds, walnuts, pistachios, and pine nuts) are another favorite way of getting protein in my diet.

17. Favorite holiday: Christmas. I miss the days when Halloween was something I really looked forward to, though. Maybe some day if/when I have kids, it will be fun again.

18. Do you download music: Yes, but I always purchase what I really... because of this and my widely varied taste, I have a HUGE music collection.

19. Do you care if your socks are dirty? - Yes, I do... don't want them to keep rubbing grit/dirt into the carpet fibers.

20. Opinion of Chinese symbol tattoos? - I don't like tattoos period... everyone has the right to do what they want with their bodies, but I'll never get them. If I want to show-off something that means something to me, I would wear it on a shirt or around my neck (although I can't think of anything I would care to).

21. Would you date the person who posted this? - LOL... I don't know, except you obviously have good taste in music I'm probably a little old for you, though, since I have just about a decade on you!

22. Has anyone ever sang or played for you personally? - Sort of, but not in a romantic way, though... my step-dad used to be a professional musician

23. Do you love anyone? - Yes, there are a lot of people I love and care about deeply... but I'm not "in love" with anyone.

24. Are colored contact lenses sexy? - Not usually.. they can be cool for a costume though.

25. Have you ever bungee jumped? - No! I'm not a thrill-seeker or risk-taker as a general rule. Besides, I hate that feeling in the pit of your stomach you get when falling or dropping.

26. Have you ever gone white-water rafting? - Nope... I've lived a pretty boring life I guess lol!

27. Has anyone ten years older than you ever hit on you? - Kind of... pretty much all of the women that I could ever tell had an interest in me were a lot older than me... not happening lol! It's flattering in a sense, but uncomfortable as well.

28. How many pets do you have? - None.

29. Have you met a real redneck? - Define "redneck"! lol... probably have by some people's yardstick, but since the word carries a very negative connotation to me, I'll say "no".

30. How is the weather right now? - OK.. cloudy with snow on the ground. I'd prefer if it was snowing right now actually!

31. What are you listening to right now? - Per Gessle's "Jo-Anna Says" (Son Of A Plumber)

32. What is your current favorite song? - Stevie Nicks' "Secret Love"

33. What was the last movie you watched? - Superman IV.

34. Do you wear contacts? - No, just glasses... I used to, and do plan on doing so again some time in the future.

35. Where was the last place you went besides your house? - To a therapy appointment.

36. What are you afraid of? - SPIDERS!! AHH!! But more seriously, fear is actually something I've dealt with a lot... and something I have to work on pretty much every day of my life.

37. How many piercings have you had? - None.

38. What piercings do you want? - Ouch! None.

39. What's one thing you've learned this year? - The year is young... not really sure of anything profound yet, but I'm sure I will. There are lessons for us every day, right?

40. What do you usually order from Starbucks? - I like very strong coffee, but never liked Starbucks... they over-roast their beans, I think, and they taste burnt (overly bitter). For coffee lovers, check out PapaNicholas coffee.. excellent! My favorite at home is mixing their "Italian Espresso" or "French Roast" with their "Toasted Southern Pecan" (that one has the most AMAZING aroma when it's being ground.. people always comment on it in the grocery store when I'm grinding it lol!)

41. What Magazines are you reading? - I don't really read any magazines. I get most of my news from online sources.

42. Have you ever fired a gun: No.

43. Are you missing someone? - Yeah, every now and again I really miss my grandparents (mom's parents)... I adored them. I'm missing my niece a little too, but I'll see her on Saturday.. yay! (she's 18 months old, and as cute/beautiful as can be, both in personality and in appearance)

44. Favorite TV show? - That's airing right now, probably House. I like No Ordinary Family too, mostly because of Michael Chiklis.. nice to see him playing a good-natured guy again (anyone remember The Commish?) Classic shows: I Love Lucy (I'll never get tired of it), Star Trek: TNG, The X-Files, Golden Girls... and oh yeah, The Mary Tyler Moore Show (Thanks TrueFaith77!)

45. Do you have an obession with WoW? - World of Warcraft or something, right? Nope.. lol!

46. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celeb? - Yes, actually, twice... a friend told me I looked like Lance Bass at one point (and yes, I took it as an insult.. lol!); and an acquaintance said I looked like Nicholas Cage.. again, not somebody I would aspire to look like.

47. What celeb do you look like? - Oops.. see last question.

48. Who would you like to see right now? - Not anyone in particular at the moment.

49. Favorite movie of all time? - There are many I like a great deal... but not one sticks out above the rest.

50. Do you find yourself loved? - Yes, definitely. I am very blessed to have a wonderful Mom and a terrific step-dad.. I also always felt very loved by my mom's parents when I was small.

51. Have you ever been caught doing something you weren't suppose to? - Oh I'm sure LOL..

52. Favorite smell? - Garlic.. YUM! Also love the smell of fresh pine bows. That's all I can think of at the moment.

53. Butter, plain, or salted popcorn? - Butter definitely! Keep the saltiness on the low, though.

54. Ever put a friend in a cop car on JukePix.com? - Can't say that I have.

55. Ever been in a cop car in real life? - Can't say that I have.

56. Has anyone you were really close to passed away recently? - Not recently.

57. Our Lady Peace or Nickelback? - Never heard Our Lady Peace.. not too familiar with Nickelback either, but of what little I've heard.. I don't care to hear any more lol.

58. What's something that really bugs you? - When people don't say thank you when you hold a door open for them, they just walk on by. <-- Good one, OP! In concert with that, rude people in general... I realize people have difficult days, but I just don't understand why they feel it's alright to take it out on people they don't know.. or perhaps worse, people they do!

59. Do you like Michael Jackson? - I like his music a lot... but as a person, I can't really pass judgment as I never knew him... but like most people, it's pretty clear to me he wasn't well. Sad really.

60. Taco Bell or Burger King? - Hmmm... don't like fast food really.. but maybe Burger King.

61. What's your favorite perfume? - LOL.. not having much experience with perfume, I can't really say. My sister used to wear this Giorgio perfume (I think that was the brand).. and it smelled to me like jelly-filled doughnuts taste.

62. Favorite baseball team? - I don't have one.

63. Ever call a 1-900 phone number? - LOL.. honestly, I think I did once when I was probably 12 out of curiosity.. my mom was none too happy.

64. Nipple or Nose rings? - Nein! (Sorry.. was going with the alliteration thing)

65. What's the longest time you've gone without sleep? - Probably close to 36 hours... made me very sick to my stomach.

66. Last time you went bowling? - Probably 4 years ago.. I was in Kansas City, MO visiting family friends.

67. Where is the weirdest place you have slept? - Geez.. I don't know.

68. Who was your last phone call? - One from my mom.
