Gotta love "Family"

I've always loved this picture... Granted, it's a few years old now... I took it right before Kelly introduced me to her family for the first, and consequently ONLY time. It was real fun, her step-mom turned her back on me and specifically asked about her x-boyfriend while I stood there, and her brother is a musician who actually seemed to take interest in me, only to find out he's full of shit and did nothing but talk badly behind my back after we left.

Apparently, I'm not good enough... You know, I have tattoos and all so there is no possible way that I could be a good person. For some reason most of them supported her douchebag x-husband (who pulled a gun on me) and her x-boyfriend whom they apparently liked and took on a yearly cruise with them wherever they decided to go.

Sadly, they haven't invited any of us to their yearly cruises or holiday get-togethers since I've been in the picture, even though they live less than 10 minutes from our house. Obviously, I really don't care, if you don't like me, that's your loss. I won't lose any sleep over it and the world can really use less judgmental people like that.

The only people that truly suffer are the kids, Kelly's kids specifically... Especially when various members of the family say they are interested in being a part of their lives, but are still nowhere to be seen or heard from. I guess the good part of all of this is that we've been able to teach our kids by real live examples how NOT to treat people (most importantly family) so at least there is a lesson there for them.

Anyway, here's the picture. Enjoy.
