Chew and Spit

Weekend at my dad’s beach house was heaven.

We did absolutely fucking nothing.

Dad and I smoked a bunch, cooked Italian food, and talked our asses off. Reag even partook of the pipe Saturday evening around a bonfire. We got high all the time growing up, but she quit once she got accepted into law school.

It made Dad’s year to see Reagan. He hasn’t seen her for a few years.

He looks like shit. I highly doubt he’ll live to the end of the year. Despite the situation, he’s seems to be living in bliss. That’s all I ask for. God damn cancer.

It’s weird to be the only person who knows he’s dying. But it’s his life. Or perhaps I should say his death. I’m respecting his wishes. Besides, I can’t say I blame him. He hasn’t talked to his family in years, and my mother is fucking psychotic.

I did decide however that I can’t let him die completely isolated. So I’m leaving Oregon for a few months. I haven’t told anyone yet. I know my job will always hold my place. I make them far too much money. I have a meeting with Rick and Chaz at three about it.

I’ll probably keep my apartment too. I like where I am. And who I’m around. I’ve got enough money in my account to cover six months of rent if I need to. 

WTF. My roommate just took a bite of her burger, then SPIT IT OUT. At first I thought maybe its a bad bite, but then she did it to her fries.

……..She has just explained to me that its her way of losing weight.

Me: "What the fuck are you doing?!"
Jess: "….What?"
Me: "What do you mean, what? Your spitting out chewed up food. It’s making me nauseous."
Jess: "Well SOME of us can’t just be "naturally" skinny."
Me: "….you gotta be shittin me, woman."
Jess: "I’m going to my room."

Two weeks ago, she had one of her faggy Gap co-workers over and I heard her complaining about my weight. She said she thinks I do crank to stay so skinny.

That made me laugh my ass off, which made her feel like a huge dumb ass for getting caught talking shit. I’m skinny because I walk everywhere, I don’t eat god awful grease burgers from the mall’s food court and I have good genes.

Go take your jealous stick and fuck yourself.

Memo to self: Kick roommate out before I leave.

Your dad sounds awesome and you are an amazing person for taking months off to spend with him. What a heavy secret to keep to yourself. I’ve heard about the chew and spit thing (I work in mental health). So bizarre, and people who do that can end up with chipmunk cheeks from over-worked glands. Tell your roommate to stick that in her pipe and smoke it!
