for a while. Maybe you wanna come over here and we can
plan interesting uses for Smiths various body parts when we
catch him (volley ball anyone?). Besides, with my trucking
around after Wiz, I'm hardly at home. You'd have the place
almost to yourself.]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Hey Nex ya out there, sorry to upset ya, but i don't like it when
ya start tearing up my shit just because I took a couple drugs away from
ya. And I don't care waht you think, I know your drugs are bad for ya.
And you can't tell me I do drugs cause Prozac was prescribed to me. Ya
gotta get off that shit dude, ya should take drugs that help ya like
those anti-despressants things. Your messed up dude, and I can't figure
why the hell everytime i try to send a private message to ya its
blocked. Stop blocking messages dude, its like uncool when people wanna
talk private and have to end up telling the whole world. SO if ya can
hear this like just stay cool, and oh yeah, I well. I don't wanna do
this, but ya tore some art up, and well. I can't resist this, i am going
to have to get ya back for that. Sorry bud i like ya and all, and i am
trying to fight it, but ya got Uncle Tarkis mad, and well ya can't just
do that. So i am warning ya stay away from me cause probably next time i
see ya I will snap. Now if Whisper ever un ties me I will come na d get
ya, oh well ]<<<<<

Wha the FUCK's been goin ON, with ya guys? I've gotten m'self all
tangled up in this shit, here in Hicksville...and, still seems like
NObody's tellin me a DAMN THING!

I miss my KIDS, Slash! I'm s'posed ta be seein Joseph, first
weekend, after I get back. But...I miss my lil _girl_, man! Thought I
might _actually_ get a chance ta hang around, and watch at least
ONE o' my kids grow up! *SIGH* But, looks like I'm screwed again!

Thin's 've been really nuts, around here...HELL--_I'VE_ been nuts!
Moreso than _usual_. But, one thing I've gotten, outta all tha's been
goin on, lately...Slash, I'm SICK o' bein kicked around! I'm SICK o'
bein ignored, and taken fer granted! I'm SICK o' bein a fuckin
DOORMAT!

Slash, I _love_ Lissa...dun get me WRONG! But, much as I enjoy
bein there fer _her_...I need ta start thinkin about ME! I need
someone ta BE there, fer _me_--not jus when the world's fallin down
'round my big, pointy ears! But, when all the stupid, mundane _shit_
starts drivin me up the fuckin WALL!

I've, m'be, got a chance fer somethin a lil better. It may be a long
shot...but, I think tis a risk I'm _willin_ ta take!

Besides, I'm not bein fair ta _Lis_, hangin around. She needs ta
find someone she doesnna have ta BABYSIT, 24-fuckin-7! My bein
around's jus gonna drag us BOTH down...and, I dun wanna see her
b'come e'en HALF the basket-case _I_ am!

I dunno....jus needed ta blow off some steam, I guess. *SIGH* I
should be back, sometime within the next week, I guess...
M'be I'll see ya 'round... ]<<<<<

paid up, Nex. Although she's not as hair trigger as she used to be. Havin
little Adrienne mellowed her out some. After all, she couldn't rightly blow
up at her own kid when she puked or made a mess, could she? She's done pretty
well, and you might be surprised about her reaction. She'll still likely
throw your hoop out the apartment, but she'll come to her senses and move on
eventually. Just try to go easy on her.]<<<<<

my
temper, if you were in the area, you'd be dead. As I have no desire to
subject my daughter to the trauma of seeing her mother kill someone, it's good
for both of us that you're not in the area.

Now, listen REAL well, or I'll send Max your way and make sure you hear the
message.

I don't think Nex is a bad father, certainly no worse a parent than I am. I
was NOT implying that he's a bad father or that he neglects his kids. I KNOW
he loves Joseph and Adrienne, so that's not a problem. Abram's was not and
never really was a problem when I answered you before. Abram's was dead long
before then, although his body was still walking around and thinking it was
alive. So get the frag off your fraggin pedastal or I'll come and blow it out
from underneath your sorry hoop.]<<<<<
