Is it just me or is this a possible danger sign for a newborn?

I was recently reading an article about the newborn daughter of Nicole Richie.  She is quoted as saying:  "I feel as if she is an extension of me."  When I read that statement, my immediate reaction to that was "Uh-Oh!"

I was recently contacted by one of my maternal cousins, after not hearing from him for several years.  (He was very close to my Nmother and basically worshipped the ground she walked on.  EWWWWW!!!!!)  Talking to him was like talking to another N  :P!  It seemed like he LOVED to hear himself talk and convinced that he knew everything about everything.  He had also been raised to believe that I was mentally retarded.  When he asked me what I had been up to and I told him that I just recently got my Masters degree, it sounded like he nearly dropped the phone! 

After stuttering and stammering for several seconds, then he asks me:  "Why did you bother to do THAT?!?!?"  (I almost responded with:  "What the F?!?!?")  Instead, I asked back:  "WHY NOT?!?!?!?"  (This induhvidual is pushing 60 and still calls his middle-aged sister "The Troll"!  What's up with THAT?!?!?!?)

URRGGHHHH!!!!   :x

Dear Bones,

lol @ induhvidual...   :lol:

So he just called you in order to hear the sound of his own voice? Sounds like typical N to me. Chats up a storm, but totally closed to input of any sort. Now that he knows you're not the easy mark he expected, I doubt whether you'll hear any more.

Good to read you!

Love,
Carolyn

Thanks, Hops!

The hypothermia program is starting to wind down. 

In the meantime, I just got another e-mail from NDoofus.  I've told her several times that I am BUSY and she still doesn't seem to get it!

You're welcome and thanks, Ami!

Dealing with someone who continues to act obtuse is FRUSTRATING!

Due to my hectic work schedule, which has included double-shifts with overnight work, my sleep-wake cycles has been thrown off, which means I am sleeping more than usual during the day.  Yesterday afternoon, when I went out to my car to go to a memorial service for a dear friend, I found a note on my windshield from NDoofus DEMANDING that I call her!  GAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!   :P

Needless to say, I did NOT call her because, as I have informed her NUMEROUS times, I AM BUSY!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Beth!

It's so aggravating dealing with her attitude of entitlement to my time.  It appears, in her own warped little world, that I have nothing to do, nowhere to go, and ALL of my time is OWNED by HER!  Sheesh!!!!!!

I managed to find some humor in moving on from another N from several years ago.  Way back when, I had fallen in love with him without understanding that his "pretty boy" looks hid a shallow individual.  Recently, I stumbled across a recent picture, on the Net, and noticed that (a) he had put on some weight, (b) his hairline had receded and now he somewhat resembles Alfred E Newman of Mad Magazine.  So much for his being a "pretty boy"!  *Snicker!*   :lol:

Recently, I received an e-mail from another individual who used to be my sponsor several years ago.  I fired her as a sponsor because I was catching her in too many lies, (and she even attempted to JUStIFY lying)!  She listed her usual tale of woes and I guess I didn't respond the way she expected me to.  I get a SNOTTY e-mail back DEMANDING WHY I don't feel sorry for her!  I have not responded.  Been there, done that, got tired of the mind games.  She doesn't understand why I fired her.
