Another reason to hate the universe (pole dancing mentioned)

Anasara

My mother calls me last night & asks if I'm sitting down.  I think "oh God who else is effing knocked up" but she assures me this is not the reason for her call.  Rather, she has a story to share.

I have a cousin, S., who is 28, unmarried, living with an unemployed abusive boyfriend, gets numerous forms of gov't assistance & has 3 kids.  She works as an "exotic dancer" (a.k.a stripper) @ one of the many shady places in our fine capital city.  Of course, she is not on the books (no W2 filled out, etc.) with this gig. 

Her sister, K., is actually normal (married with a 2 year old, one on the way & has a job) & she calls on her ALL.THE.FARKING.TIME because she cannot function.  So when S calls K the other day to see if she can pick up her oldest kid from lst grade (btw, child is 7 & wasn't potty trained til 5) because she's @ the hospital K doesn't blink & simply asks "Oh is one of the other kids sick?".  S's reply:

"No; they think I fractured my ankle or something.  I fell off the pole when I was dancing & landed weird on my ankle." 

It was @ this point I ran to the bathroom before I p!ssed myself from laughing too hard.

too bad she's not on the books.  worker's comp claim?

or she should get one of those "hurt on the job" attorneys.  i'd love to be in on that court hearing.
