Brothers

I’ve touched on this before…..I love my brother, I do but sometimes he is enough to make me CRAZY!!!  The transmission in his truck kicked the bucket a while ago and he has yet to fix it but he’s been driving his girlfriends car so “no big deal” right?  Until they broke up anyway!  Tonight he had to return the car so he asked me to borrow my truck so he can get to work tomorrow.  Ok, fine – he didn’t break it last weekend when he used it…..it’ll be fine right?

I got one of “those” phone calls about an hour after he left with my truck.  “I promise I’ll fix it and really it’s not that bad”……no friggin joke!  THAT is how the conversation started.  I seriously thought he was just screwing with me.  He apparently went to throw something out the window of the truck, hit the window with it (I’m very unclear what it was that he was trying to throw out) and the window “!#$%^&* EXPLODED” !!  Nice huh?  I really still thought he was screwing with me so I made him take a picture…..

 

That is my leather seat, pieces of glass and his leg.  Yup I threatened to kill him.  He promises he’ll buy a new window and put it in tomorrow.  *sigh* I love my brother but sometimes I just want to smack him.

OH!  And in that other blog I linked to/referred to up there, I forgot the other “he’s ok but…” phone call.  Just before Thanksgiving 2007 I got a phone call from his now “ex wife”….”he says he’s ok but he just rolled his truck over just down the road”  Big, HUGE *sigh* When is he going to realize that he is NOT invincible??
