" If my scumbag brother-in-law comes over looking to borrow money"

This is no joke. I came home one day to find one of my cousin's sons, who's spent a lot of time in jail and prison (mostly for being drunk, drugged and stupid) in the house talking on my phone, online on my computer (and had changed some of my settings and software) had helped himself to a $30 bottle of wine that was a gift to me, had rifled through my mom's medicine cabinet and taken all the meds left over from her nursing home and had just made himself at home. The house was locked when I left. He just removed a screen, opened a window and invited himself in. It meant nothing to him. I escorted him out the door to his truck (which he never finished paying for of course, sticking his father in law for the bill).

He was exhausting to be around. He never shut up, never stopped trying to manipulate or make you feel guilty for his self-induced "mistakes" and misfortune. He would just wear you down. He never shut up! In the old days, I'm sure people like him got shot, just to shut them up.

I could tell you a lot more stories about him and one of his brothers. It's like that Albert King song, "Born Under A Bad Sign", if he "didn't have bad luck, he wouldn't have any luck at all".

Wow, that's a hell of a homecoming story.

My ex-brother-in-law got into meth and totally screwed himself up. My sister divorced him.

Latest word is that he is 14 months sober after doing 2 years in prison in Lompoc, California. That guy ticked me off like you can't believe. I really hope he stays sober and straightens out his life, I really do. I can't stand him but I don't want him to be a burden on everybody else around.
