Crazy neighbor

How is it that I always meet the crazy ones? The monster met a new friend 2 weeks or so ago and it was an interesting meeting with the mom to start with and I thought she was odd. The monster comes running in the house telling me a mom wants to meet me so I go outside to meet her and she immediately hugs me and yells "friends, I have friends". Ok fine she is odd but the child is nice and he and the monster get along well so I let it go.
Well today she calls me to "vent" telling me all crap about her significant other who is mentally abusive but never in front of the child. Right b/c kids can never tell when the shit is hitting the fan. So her significant other tells her how stupid she is and has isolated her from her friends and family and on and on. Holy Cow! She is in therapy which is why I think she is able to talk about what's going on but I don't think she really gets it. She thinks that b/c she has spent a year and a half living with him in his house that she is committed to him and doesn't want to start over. WTF??? get out!!!
Now I am conflicted do I continue to let the monster hang out over there? the child is well behaved so I don't want to punish the kids, they generally enjoy each others company but I don't think I want the monster exposed to the crazy stuff. I am going to have to talk to him to see if he has noticed anything, he would normally tell me about such stuff but now I am thinking he may not tell me if he is worried he might be able to play with the child.
I am worried if I try to help this woman, which is my nature, that I could be in physical danger b/c the guy she lives with may be off his rocker!!! ARG!

As I was skimming the headlines today I can across this story and had to share. I cannot believe that this congress critter had nothing better to do with his time than try to ban barbie, now this is what is wrong with our government. ARG!

The Bachelor

I do not watch this show b/c I think the people on these and other shows are ridiculous. But I am an admitted TV junkie so I read about this crap b/c its everywhere (well at least on all my favorite sites). I knew this guy was dumped by the Bachelorette a season or so ago and was a favorite, I also knew he had a kid. I have a real problem with him putting his son through this!!! Maybe I am too much of a prude with my child but I refuse to introduce my child to anyone after such a short time! I try very hard to keep those kind of relationships away from the monster until I know the guy is going to be around for a little while b/c I don't want a ton of men in and out of his life! I think its wrong.
Ok off my soapbox and back to this duchebag! I love the yahoo thing (because I don't know what to call it) prime time in no time. Its hysterical and gives you just enough of the crap to make me laugh. So I checked it out today and this stupid man was all over it. I watched his proposal to girl A, his dismissal of girl B for girl A. Then he dismissed girl A and tells her he wants to try things with girl B. WTF??? He told girl B he was in love with girl A, does he know what he wants??? probably not so why in the hell would he involve his son in this nonsense? Why would he do this to girl A and why is girl B ok with this??? He told you he loved someone else but ooppps he was mistaken??? Well what is going to happen now is he going to change his mind and go hang out with bachelorette who also made a play for him in the season finale?? I mean come on now, what is it about this guy? I saw a guy in flannel flannel and more flannel! granted I only watched clips b/c I cannot stomach those shows unless I am completely making fun of them and at present I have no one to sit with me and laugh.
That is all for now, I am just astonished by this duchebag and had to share but should I be? I think that is more the question I need to answer...why am I astonished and why did I take the time to blog about this? I need a life...
