Jun. 5th, 2018 12:14 amToday was really wild...
I had a dentist appointment which I was stressed out about. I needed a filling done, but it wasn't so bad after all. And the walk home was very refreshing. The weather was nice, it was cool. But when I got home... *sighs* I had been gone for perhaps half an hour. I noticed mom wasn't in bed. She usually needs my assistance to get up, so my first thought was that she was doing better, then. But then I went further in and she called from the bathroom that she'd soiled herself again. -_- Nurses and I keep telling her, so long as she doesn't sit up or stand or walk she's going to keep having problems controling her bowels like that... Since I wasn't here, she was in a bad state. Naked from the waist down, poop all over the floor and her legs... I got her washed and changed. I was so exhausted, I had to wait a moment to clean the floor and everything. I still have to do the laundry tomorrow...
She kept apologizing, but this isn't something that's just an unfortunate condition she has. It's because she *doesn't move.* When the nurses ask her why, she just says "well, where am I going to walk?" Like, she's bored so that's why she'll just accept that I have to clean up after her like this every other week or so. It's frustrating... I honestly don't know why she won't move more. She has a bed sore as well which won't heal properly because she won't move too...
AND THEN... and then... my sister called. My sister, who I used to call my Inquisitor, called saying she'd be over in half an hour. Guys... I can't tell you how terrifying she is. I honestly believe she is a malignant narcissist. She's sadistic, just... no. I was like... are you kidding me right now? She doesn't even live in this country. I have been avoiding any contact with her for years now. She's most of the reason I have PTSD in the first place. It was fine... She had my nephew with her, and I think she was trying to keep herself relatively calm for his sake. She was still jerking him around a bit, though... chiding him for not spending enough time talking to mom, but then monopolizing the conversation. I kept having to cut her off and address him because he was being cut out and acting out as a result (you know the Bored Kid thing, when they start fussing hugely). But I survived... I hope I don't need to see her again for a few years more, honestly.
And... a new Warcraft comic was announced. It should be out tomorrow. People are already losing their shit over it. And, this time, I'm actually angry with the community right now. Here's the deal: so far we have an interview about it. They said this Guy (narrative designer!guy) came up with the plot, and a writing team of Writer!Guy and Writer!Gal worked out the script together. The comments are about how it's going to suck for sure because Writer!Gal is in charge of everything- in fact, she wrote all three comics (absolutely and obviously false...). At this point, it can only be misogyny. She's just a freelancer they hired *this year* but everyone keeps making like she personally owns the Warcraft franchise now. I'm so disgusted by it all...
