******* oxy Satan. You never know. It's as though an old friend calls you out of the blue and wants to apologize.....for the wrong he did you. 4 years worth of wrongs. He pleads with you to "Let bye gones be bye gones, you know we really did have a good time together....you & I."
I hadn't seen the guy for over a year after a chaotic 4 year "friendship". Then it snowed a howling mess one night this past December. And he called purring....beckoning in his persuasive way...... "Why don't we get that snowblower out tomorrow morning and have some fun?" "For old times sake?" "Just you & I?" "30 mgs oughtta' do it and the next day...... Well, I'll be gone by then and promise never to bother you again....... Ever."
And like a sucker; I bit. I'd forgotten how he tore me to pieces. Almost stealing my wife whom never understood what I saw in him. My money was his money and I never saw most of it and what little I had left the creditors took. This time though, he cajoled me......he stuck around a few days more than he promised, the entire time claiming that he had my best interests in mind. Two weeks later.....he was still there. 2 months later....he was still there. Snug and just as in cahoots with me as before. 30 mgs went to over a 100 mgs and I began too see that my wife hated my friend but knew not why? Who was this friend that stole her husband? Could it be the same friend that stole him 4 years ago?
4 months went by. And every morning my friend still paid me a call and was my constant companion thru-out each and every day. I threw him out 4 or 5 X's for lying, cheating and misbehaving on numerous occasions but always invited him a back after a day or two or three. He's been gone for five endless days now. He still calls every day and every second & every minute of every hour. He calls me in the middle of the night and deprives me of my sleep. He's my best friend. He can help.......he promises.
He's a liar. And if I don't kill him this time, he'll try killing me.
Well, that diatribe was cathartic. And I'm convinced I'm gonna' kill that ******* b4 he gets me!
Day 6, here I come.
Thanks for the kind ear............
Toby (Again....unfortuneately.)
