I guess the fact that I took the day off Friday really made up for my weekend.

And boy, I needed it.

Like I said, if you want to be treated nicely/ take time for yourself, you have to do it YOUR DAMN SELF.

I came home Friday to find that SS had two friends over. They're good kids but one of them is even MORE of an air head than SS (yeah I know, I didn't think that was possible). I asked if they were staying over tonight or tomorrow. Of course, no one knew what was going on. So I looked at DW and said straight out "Either you tell them to get themselves organized or I will decide what SS and his friends are doing this weekend."

DW goes to talk to them and SS and his pals decide they will sleep over Saturday. On Saturday, I left the house to take care of some errands. DW took the kids to the park. SS went out to spend the day with his friends. It was around 3:00 that I noticed that I had three missed calls from SS (I accidentally shut the volume off). So I call back. No answer. Oh well, if it was an emergency SS usually texts.

I arrive home around 4pm to find SS's friend (the air head) lying down on our front porch. He looked like he was napping.

I walk up to him and wake him up. I ask him if he's okay and why is he here on my front porch.

Supposedly SS and his entourage were out skateboarding and SS's friend fainted!

I touch his forehead. He's cool as a cucumber.

"Are you hurt? Has this happened to you before? Did you eat today?"

The friend says that he has severe allergies and his Mom is too broke to get him anti-allergy medication.

"Where is SS?" I asked.

Friend shrugs his shoulders. He said they left him here to go find DW. SS forgot his house keys so they couldn't bring him into the house.

I'm shaking my head at this point. I bring him inside, give him some water and later call his mother. Mother asks if I would mind bringing him home as she has no car and I say "No problem" (He lives about 6 blocks away).

So I take this kid home and when I return, I find SS and DW have returned home as well.

I fill DW in on what happened. DW is livid.

SS says he tried calling us but we didn't answer (DW left her phone at home to charge) and then he said went "looking" for DW. Okay fine, so SS went out looking for DW at the park. But the park isn't far from our house, so either SS went to the wrong park, or they somehow missed each other.

SS says "It's no big deal. He faints all the time in the summer."

"Excuse me!?!? A kid passed out on my front porch IS A VERY BIG DEAL!!!!"

"Well what was I supposed to do?" SS says.

Reset water-works meter.

And this story doesn't end here.

SS's friend returns an hour later.... :? :jawdrop: :? :jawdrop:

"What the F...., why have you come back?"

"SS has my drink and my iPod" the friend says.

"Does your mother know you've come back here!?"

"No."
