[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 673146, member: 18958"] Sporadically, because it is almost winter. I hear in his voice some resentment that he receives so much less money than the other crew. He justifies it by saying "they need it more." I wish he would say, "let me try and work better and harder to justify equal pay." But he does not. I wish he wanted more. I wish he thought he could get it. I wish he did not feel defeated by life. I feel sad, as do you. While never high-high functioning, my son was buff, dedicated to the gym, excelled at martial arts, had friends, held a full time job, traveled to foreign countries alone, was poised and seemingly confident, read books and discussed linguistics, went to college, taught himself 3 foreign languages. And his focus has been reduced to preoccupation with aliens mating with reptiles and seeking world domination--and preparing for resulting apocalypse and martial law. This is a good question. I believe as does M that he is trying to dominate me. But it could be that he is trying to dominate himself. This scares me because it means he may be paranoid or delusional or both. I will not even go there. Yes, this is true. I called him, though, about Thanksgiving. I think we are both best served by a little distance, now. Thank you, Cedar. COPA [/QUOTE]
