the cast


  • Me - while this should be self explanatory, I'll toss in that I'm in my *cough* upper 30s, live with my boyfriend (but kept my own house) and work for the state in an institution of so called "higher" education. I was in a severe car crash in 1993 and am handicapped (capable? gimpy!) as a result. I'm also fighting my weight and binge/purge disorder! Go me!
  • M - the boyfriend. Set up on a blind date and that's been it. I love him but lordy I understand why he's divorced.
  • OS, MS, YS - M's three boys, oldest, middle & youngest. Mostly just see the youngest now as the oldest is in college & the middle is 17.
  • Lorster - closest friend I've never met. She's in Canada but always in my head. We have a long history and we know the deep down secret stuff about each other. I love her to death!
  • EvilG - my co-hort & great friend at work. She knows most of my secrets too.
  • T - first friend I made at work. We still giggle over Rich@rd Gere & gerbils.
  • Shell - we met in gym class in 1980. We both still hate gym. Mother to my Goddaughter Sam *post script, we've both joined the gym!
  • OB, MD, YB - my three older brothers, 51, 50, & 41.
  • SIL1, SIL2, SIL3 - their wives. 1 is my favorite, 2 is not all there, and 3 doesn't get it that I know she's a bitch.
  • ON - my oldest niece, child of my oldest brother. She's married, I see her every week, and I adore her offspring.
  • GNeph1 & GNeph2 - ON's kiddos. GN1 is going to be 5 this year and his little brother is 1 and adorable. I love them both.
  • MN - She used to be youngest niece until my youngest brother finally spawned. She's stubborn, spoiled, opinionated, and I love her still. Second daughter of my oldest brother, she's married with a daughter.
  • GNiece - 2 years old, just like her mother, only without the good vocabulary. She'll grow into it.
  • YN & N or the Twins - through the modern miracle of science my youngest brother and his wife have twins, one of each. I don't see them often, but they are adorable.
  • Mr.Drunky - one of M's friends. Self proclaimed "best friend" to my boyfriend, I hate him deeply. He's a jackass quite frankly. Yes, I'm being polite.
  • Dr.C - my surgeon from my car crash.
  • Dr.H - my doctor who treats my thyroid problems & depression.
  • Dad, the Mother - self explanatory isn't it? The mother is also known as the bitch.
  • M's Mother - treats me better than my own, but has her moments.
  • Tripod - my former supervisor, now "on equal levels" coworker. She's the one who got me walking again. (Tripod stands for PrettyPrettyPrincessOfDoom- 3p's- tripod ... get it? Yes, I call her this to her face!)
  • My Boss - um, my boss. He rocks.
  • Mouser - my kitty baby. I love him like only a psycho woman with a cat can.
  • PD - the kitty who was suppose to be fixed and sent back outside, but now spends most of his time inside. He was 9 lbs. but is constantly expanding. He's best carried like a football, under your arm.
  • Elliott - driver of the #38 car, object of my from afar affections.
  • TW or Trainer Woman or Wonder Woman or Wonder - at this point (3-10-06) I've only emailed and observed her. I hope to some day says she's MY personal trainer. (4-2-06) She will be my trainer in a couple weeks. Right now I'll say that she's a wonderful supporter of my efforts. I hope some day to call her a friend.
