All my cousins suck. I keep thinking one of them might be redeemable, but they prove me wrong constantly.

Meagan (Marissa’s daughter and Charlie’s step-daughter) is an alcoholic who constantly gets herself into stupid shit.

Every boyfriend she’s ever had, and she’s had a lot, is pretty much the same guy.

Here’s how the relationship goes:

  • meet a guy who works/goes where you do
  • party with the guy whether he’s your boss, workmate, or whatever he’s doing in life
  • quickly move in with the guy either in his place or get a place together
  • decide you don’t want to party anymore and he shouldn’t either
  • play sick twisted mind games with him constantly until you drive him crazy or send him deeper into alcohol or drug addiction
  • continue being so ridiculous to everyone around you that you lose your job and the cops are called out to your place on a regular basis to get you to shut the fuck up and stop harassing the neighbors and their pets and stop passing out on their lawns or banging on their doors and windows screaming to be let in thinking it’s your place
  • suddenly freak out and cry to everyone who will listen that he’s “beating the crap out of me HELP!!” even though you never bruises (she bruises VERY easily) and your boyfriends are usually the ones with the bruises -- (her ex-husband had cuts on him and a split lip one time but he wouldn’t say why)
  • insist everyone drop everything and come rescue you immediately
  • stay with whoever “rescued” you, taking advantage of them, playing sick twisted mind games with everyone in the house, letting your dog shit and piss all over their house while you treat everyone like shit and fall back into alcoholism so badly that you throw up all over the house, pass out in random spots in the house, piss yourself regularly, and never clean up after yourself or your dog
  • if anyone complains, pull out your self-diagnosis of borderline personality disorder and use it as permission to treat people however you want
  • continue this until you get a new job
  • clean up enough and work hard enough for your employers to begin really liking you for a few weeks or even months
  • meet a guy who works/goes where you do

It’s the same exact thing every time. The only difference is where the guy lives.

  • All but two of the guys lived with their mother -- they didn’t pay their mothers anything or help out in any way and most of them had suspended licenses for drug/alcohol related issues and insisted their mothers drive them anywhere they wanted to go
  • Two of the guys slept IN THE SAME BED as their mothers
  • One of those mothers pinned a sheet to the ceiling and draped it down the middle of the bed so Meagan and her son could have privacy and there was no door on the bathroom that was in the same room with the bed -- Meagan said they didn’t fuck in the bed, but they did in the shower because it was more private
  • One guy lived on the open porch of his mom’s house (Meagan lived with him for about 4 months on the porch)
  • All of the guys have severe drug and/or alcohol addiction

So Charlie is on his way to Colorado (where she was sent to go to rehab) right now to pick Meagan up after she called last night claiming the guy she met in rehab (great place to meet amiright?) had “gone crazy” and was “beating the shit out of me.”

Charlie has a temper, a short fuse, and no filter since his brain injury, and he’s driving up there alone so that Marissa can take care of customers at the shop.

I have a feeling Charlie is going to end up arrested for a confrontation between himself and the rehab guy because ALL of Meagan’s boyfriends have been cocky little fuckers, and twice now the only reason Charlie wasn’t arrested for getting into confrontations with her boyfriends was because when the cops came Charlie was like yeah I screwed up here’s exactly what I did and why and he’s charming so they let him off with a warning.

Now he’ll be up there without Marissa, me, or Madelyn to keep him from doing stupid shit.

Oh and Meagan has been banned from living in Charlie’s house, my house, and all my other cousins’ houses except Dominic, her brother. Stupid guy offered to let her live with him while she gets back on her feet.

His wife of only a few months doesn’t really know Meagan, and now I’m worried this is going to end his marriage because yeah Meagan is that much of a mindfucker.

My grandma died when I was 8, and the man my father (Nelson) was died with her.

He hadn’t been a super attentive father, but my mom tells me he played with me every day when he got home from work, and we went on vacations as a family.

He listened to me. He liked being around me, and apparently I liked being around him. He loved games, so we spent a lot of time at arcades, and he would invite my friends to go along too and pay their way.

Nelson didn’t handle his mom’s death well, and he turned into an angry, distant person who didn’t even seem to realize I was still there for a few years.

When he did start to notice me, it was to yell at me for something or complain or demand something. He wasn’t nice anymore. Ever.

When I was 7-8 years old, we brought my grandmother to our house to die of a disease no one had really heard of in the US -- Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, or more commonly known as mad cow disease in animals.

My dad’s sisters had never gotten along well, but with their mother dying and their marriages going badly, they were at each other’s throats.

But the one doing the most damage right now is Meagan. That’s Marissa’s daughter, Charlie’s step-daughter.

She’s an alcoholic.

Marissa just watched her little sister drink herself to death a few months ago, and now she’s watching her 20-something-year-old daughter do the same thing.

Meagan moved out of Charlie/Marissa’s house again a few months back, got an apartment, and got her own insurance car.

In 8 the weeks she was “on her own” this time, she managed to get the police called on her 3 times over fights with the downstairs neighbor (who just wants to live peacefully without a drunk asshole physically and verbally assaulting her, screaming and banging on doors in the middle of the night, and passing out on the front lawn), almost lose her job 5 times, and get put on a 72-hour hold 3 times.

That’s before Thursday.

I’d really appreciate it if people would tag their animal abuse posts. Please! I can’t filter them otherwise. I know animal abuse is out there. I don’t need it shoved in my face and depressing me for days, the graphic pictures and videos stuck in my head.

I give to charities that help abused animals, we had a dog for 12 years that was abused and we rescued her, I don’t abuse animals myself, and I’ve even called animal rescue on people who abused animals in my neighborhood.

I don’t need someone to tell me it exists, to force me to be aware. I know it exists. Stop shoving it in my face.

I don’t want to unfollow people because of it, but it’s too depressing to just keep watching it as I scroll through my feed FOR PLEASURE. Ya know, fandom? That place where I go to get away from the horrible realities of life? I’ve unfriended family members on Facebook for the same reason.

I’ll never get the video of a cat being tortured to death from a friend’s feed on Facebook out of my head. A video that automatically played on my browser! My friend said he did it to force awareness, but I don’t need that in my head. Not when I’m not even part of the problem. I’m on Tumblr for fun, not to sit there and cry over something I can’t even stop.
