Geeze People

You people have no patience.

SIL.

Ok, I need to provide a little background here, so it all makes sense.

Ricky, the youngest of 7 siblings moved away from where they grew up. Ricky was divorced from a real floozy. He's always been attracted to skinny, big boobed, airheads. He actually had one normal girlfriend that we loved, but she was too normal (and plain) for him. He's pretty much a loud-mouthed guy. As the youngest, he picked up the worst traits from his step-dad who raised him with THE MOTHER. The most annoying being that he is cheap beyond belief. Soon after he moved, he re-married Angie, a carbon copy of wife #1, but worse.

Angie, married to Ricky, is somone who drives me insane. All she ever talks about is herself. She can not have a conversation without going on and on about how great of a cook she is, or how brilliant her baby is. It's nauseating. She's an alcoholic, but she wouldn't admit it. Every time I've seen her, she's been beyond drunk, and her behavior is disgusting.

Dave, is another BIL, who soon after following Ricky south, divorced his wife of 20 years. I can't say I blame him, she was hell on wheels, and he stuck it out for a long time. Last year he re-married a wonderful woman who I adore. Of course, the idiot divorced her before their first anniversary, without reason, but some of us know exactly why.

Dave moved in with Ricky and Angie when Dave separated from wife #2. Wife #2 has excellent taste and also despises Angie, and probably Ricky too. Dave chose being 3rd wheel in their relationship instead of keeping his own. Dave's relationship with Ricky and Angie was a main fighting point between Dave and wife #2. The three of them are cozy, cozy, cozy. Angie talks of Dave like he is her husband. I figure there is something going on there, and it will get ugly. She fawns over him, he takes care of her when she gets drunk. They go everywhere together, and Ricky seems fine with the whole arrangement, probably because Dave is paying them rent, and helping with other expenses. The whole thing is creepy to say the least.

Angie came down with a mysterious illness just before they came to visit. A month later, and she still doesn't know what's wrong with her. I'm sure it has something to do with the huge amounts of alcohol she consumes daily, but she is in denial about that. She's about 5'8" and MAYBE weighs 100 lbs. When I saw her, the jaundice had subsided, but she was puffy and swollen. This would get worse as the week went on. Dave and Ricky are also in denial. Well, they know she "can't handle her alcohol", and "can't keep up with the big boys", but they're so wrapped up in their own drinking habits that it seems they'll just let her keep killing herself slowly than give it up themselves to help her.

This is turning into a very long post, so if I can figure out how to condense some of the highlights, or lowlights actually, into something coherent, I'll be back soon.
