South southeast of you. Also called New Hope or Peddlers Village, in Bucks County.
Nevermind, I see it's a bit further away from you than I recollected.

I was growling and bitching at the ol man earlier. He had to go up and deal with moving some furniture around for my parents today, and he tells me last night, he wants to get up early so he can get to the post office. So, good wifey that I am, instead of telling him he can damn well eat cereal for b'fast, I get up at 9:20am and cook bacon, so he can have oatmeal with bacon bits in it as he likes (which sounds utterly gross to me, but whatevs). So I take him coffee at 9:30. At 10:15 I go back and inquire, didn't he want to get up early to go to the PO? At 10:45 I go back and tell him his bacon's almost done, to get his ass outta bed. So then he FINALLY gets in here, and inquires, when will it be ready? I said I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO GO TO THE POST OFFICE BEFORE BREAKFAST! SO WHY THE HELL DID I HAVE TO GET UP EARLY, EXACTLY??????????? Asswipe has the temerity to tell me to STFU. I said, oh it's very well for you to tell me to STFU, when I should have been telling you to get the fuck OUT... of bed!
He's finally gone now, so peace has returned.

Oh BTW... anyone who has Amazon Prime... I STRONGLY recommend the series "Bosch", one of their original TV series. It's based on the novels of Michael Connelly, who can write his ass off, and the show is GREAT! We started watching it last night, and watched 3 episodes before we could bear to turn it off and start getting ready for bed. Titus Welliver is OUTSTANDING in the lead role, really stupendous casting!

I was laying in bed this morning and realized that nothing was hurting or aching as usual...I thought I was dead... then I woke up, DAMMIT!!
I wish that dream would come true LOL.
I never realized how much physical activity fishing takes. I've taken my step son fishing for the past 3 days straight and my shoulders, neck and hands are killing me, I normally have aches and pains due to a few physical ailments and other reasons, and he still wants to go fishing again today. I don't want to go, but I feel I should. He is finally starting to get close to me after his father's death a few years ago and I want to cement that relationship, but he's wearing my old ass out! I really love fishing too and I'm glad he has a hobby that's keeping him out of trouble, although he never really got into much trouble to begin with. My wife is taking him and his sister to the beach tomorrow for 5 days and I'll have a break then. I guess I'll suck it up and take him again today. I know I'm gonna be hurtin' bad tomorrow, but at least I can lay in bed all day if I want. Thankfully next week is a break between summer semesters so no work either.
Man, it really sucks when I'm complaining about going fishing LOL.
As soon as he said STFU, you should of gone medieval on his ass with the skillet you were frying the bacon in!

No way! I didn't wanna waste the bacon!
Seriously though... the last time I "went medieval on his ass", *I* ended up in jail for simple battery.
It got dismissed; thx to a reasonably competent lawyer, the fact that they didn't read me my rights before asking me what happened and then hauling me to jail, and the fact that I was suffering PTSD and depression and just really needed treatment. But it made me make a full commitment to never getting physical again; my karma is such that everytime it happens, the stakes get a little higher, and spending 3 hrs in the tank is all the jail I ever wanna deal with.Andria

Yeah, it sucked badly, in about 5 yrs of serious suckage, what with all the PTSD, depression, and peri-menopause. Then there's the fact that my mate was a Marine, so if he took a notion, I'm sure he could kill me with his bare hands. Best to keep things verbal.
But I draw the line at saying "yes sir, may I have another," anytime he feels like saying STFU. I usually just fire it right back at him. Andria

I pretty much am the chauffeur. I drive to the lake. I drive the boat...But you do have a point! I would just throw a line in the water without bait so I wouldn't have to do anything, but that voice in my head, one of many
, won't let me! I broke down and took a pain pill and am starting to feel a little better. I hate taking those things. Had a bad experience a few years back when a doc had me taking 3 mgs of morphine a day before one of my neck surgeries. That shit turned me into the devil and I had no clue until my best friend asked me one day why I was being such an asshole. I laughed and then he said, no really dude, you are being a pure tee dick! That's when I knew there was an issue. And bless my wife's heart, she hadn't said anything until then and told me that she and the kids were walking on egg shells around me for the past few months. I went to my doc the next week and got a script for methadone and got off that shit. Ever since then, I've been leery about pain meds and it gets to the point sometimes that my wife makes me take them. She's a nurse so I can't argue with her, well I can but I'm risking life and limb...and getting cut off...if you know what I mean
Good point! NEVER waste bacon, that's a sin!

I hear ya hon. I'm ex military too and I know how PTSD can mess your head. I was literally the "angry young man" when I was in the service and I loved fighting, not just to hurt someone but just the rush I got from it. I made a vow once I got out to never get in a physical altercation unless I absolutely had to. I had to break that vow a few times because some ass hats pushed me and I felt really bad about it even though they deserved what they got.
Next time matey mouths off, show him an article about Loraine Bobbit and just grin. And never let him get away with anything. You go girl and let that jar head have it! LOL

My husband and I are both recovering alcoholic addicts, and one of the things he was addicted to, years before I ever knew him, was "street" narcotics, you know the one. We'd been sober about 15 yrs when he had a serious mo'cycle wreckcident, and lost the flesh off half his ass, most of his left leg, and (thx to the steel toed boots he was wearing), broke 3 or 4 of the long bones in his left foot, the metatarsals. So he was taking Lortabs for a week or so... I finally had to tell him, if he was going to keep taking those things, he could damn well get up and get his own shit, because I wasn't going to both take his shitty attitude AND his demands for waitress service. Considering that at the time, we lived in a townhouse, with 13 steep steps between our bedroom and the kitchen... he quit taking them.
Sure is, and NO ill-tempered STFU is worth wasting bacon over.
I just gave him some more of my mind before I did finally shut it. Andria

My PTSD was due to an almost-fire in a mobile home.... ever seen one of those go up? Takes about 10 mins to burn to the ground. Fortunately, I woke up to the smell of smoke, and even more fortunately, I realized right away that it wasn't burning leaves I smelled, but BURNING INSULATION -- so I got myself and our 8 yr old son dressed and outta there AFTER dialing 911, in about 5 mins flat. Fortunately again, it was a wire arcing, but against a 2x4; it was about 3 inches from that thin paneling stuff that makes the walls of those things. That night, I again heard that "bugs chewing the walls" noise, called 911 again, and yep, another wire arcing. I got us packed and ready to move within 48 hrs, we were gone in another couple days... and then I suffered a full year of screaming nightmares everytime I fell asleep -- but I never slept when they did, I was the fire guard. I only slept once I got my son off to school. After about 2-3 yrs, I was finally starting to come back to something approaching normal.... and 9/11 happened and yanked the rug right back out from under my very precarious well-being.... and my hormones decided then was a good time to go psychotic, like adolescence in reverse. I was a blithering basket case, so we're both really lucky that when I grabbed him, I didn't have a weapon in my hand. All I did was pull his hair... and got taken to jail for that.
Thank god for Effexor, is all I can say.

I got in a wreck in 2012. It fucked up my shoulder pretty good. They never found anything visibly wrong with it, but I'm still in pain. After it first happened they gave me some pills. I think I took one. Not big on pills myself. A lot of times I can mentally block it. Most of the time I just trudge on through shit though. And from all your saying you are, indeed, quite a good "father figure" to that fine young lad. And I'm sure he knows this tooI pretty much am the chauffeur. I drive to the lake.

Hopefully you also have a lot of depends - not those whimpy-size pampers for babies.
I mean the full-flegde adult diapers with extra absorbency - I hear he can be a real handful
He brings his own supply, they work perfect for him. Here's a recent pic of him in one, had to toss his ass in time out..... He wasn't listening.Hopefully you also have a lot of depends - not those whimpy-size pampers for babies.
