Well. I guess, I am a heartless b!tch....

.....but I don't care. And I will never ever ever have a houseguest again, as long as we still live in this house. That should be about five years. The thought decides me. A lot.
So some of you may remember that I first had my BFF here with her awful new boyfriend. After that came baby brother's BFF who was here on a work and travel visa - he was supposed to stay with us for two weeks or three, then find a room. We would help setting hi. Up, go get a SIN, stuff like that. Well, while he did find a room more or less on the time limit, he did not get that he was NOT supposed to be the 'adult son' of the family (let's face it, he is the same age as DH, 26). He would constantly call, try to stop by, set up dinners etc. as in trying to stop by every.frucking.night. Not happening. So after I had to send some boundaries there, he decided he would travel around - he had about three job offers, but wasn't happy with them blablaBLA.BLA! So he traveled Canada, helped out on farms for food and a place to sleep and then he got home and his girlfriend was here for a visit (and they had to stop by for another hundred times). Aaaaaand in the meanwhile he had decided that North America is a cruel and awful place and that he would leave early - in fact yesterday instead of October somewhen.
Fast forward to yesterday. I had him over for his good bye dinner the night before. We had steaks, potatoes, salad, corn. Nothing fancy. Yesterday morning I get a text early in the morning if we were doing ok. Well, yes. We are fine. When I asked why, he told me he was soooooo sick. Puking, diareah, cramps. He MUST have gotten food poisoning at my house. Ummmm. No. You probably got some virus while traveling around with your girlfriend who left earlier the day of that dinner. You told me about the street meat you ate on the road. Remember? We cut those steaks from the same piece of meat. We all ate it. I have Crohn's. Believe me, if it was even thinking about going bad, I would have it too. Or the baby. Remember the baby? Ate steak as well. Was totally fine. We all ate the exact same stuff. Whatever.
So I asked if I could do anything. Like bring meds or make sure he gets to the airport. No, he doesn't want North American meds. They are all evil, not tested properly, they won't help. Unless I have something from Germany left (fat chance, after 3 years of not going there, plus the meds here are usually more powerful, at least the OTC stuff). Ok. I said then I would send him and pay for a cab to get hi. To the airport (he had said before he would take the bus, since it was practically door to door from his room). No. He was hoping he could hang out for the day, so I could take care for him and then we could drive him to the airport. Ummm, no. You seem to have a violent devil virus, and I think I do not want you around my pregnant self and my baby. But I am happy to come down and bring you some meds. You are not alone, you have room mates. And then I will pay for your cab. Nope, if I don't want to help him, I don't have to do anything at all. Ok then. Suit yourself.
Well, he made it to the airport, he made it to Frankfurt (apparently getting sick four times during that flight - honestly, that didn't even sound that bad), he is home now. I also get the message that he now has 'proper meds'. And then I get a message from his mom (who I have never met, btw), how dissapointed she was that I didn't take better care of her son. Yeah.
Ok, my vent is over. I refuse to even think of him now. Baby brother has, btw, said that they are no longer that close and that he doesn't understand how I could deal with his whiny former best buddy. He is lucky there is an ocean in between us. Really. He is.

Re: Well. I guess, I am a heartless b!tch....
Fun times indeed. There is nothing more fun than puking you guts out for no good reason at all.
THIS!!!!!!! OMG!! I didn't realize that you were this guys surrogate Mother that had to take care of him!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Geesh, and you were just trying to be nice.
Haha, the surrogate made me laugh. Honestly, I think what bugs me the most about it is his mother writing this email. Yeah, since paying for his cab is not acceptable, let me endanger my babies and take care of your grown azz son. Who now seems to have cuddled up to mommy's tit and whined about how Canada is just not like home. Le sigh.
You know there is something wrong with people who cannot enjoy anything.
NYC? Didn't like the underground.
Montreal? Ugly.
Toronto? Horrible to park there.
Ottawa? Nobody loves me.
Cape Cod? Got a sunburn there.
Boston? The Aquarium was too expensive.
And my favorite...
Niagara Falls....? I thought there wouldn't be a whole amusement park around it. Just for tourists. I thought it was a nature thing.
You know somebody is f'ucked up if they cannot see the beauty of Niagara Falls.
A) That guy and his mom are ridiculous and annoying. Good riddance!

Hell yes, he owes me!!! I told him today that he was the sole reason for me not throwing the guy out. He may or may not live in fear of the moment until he sees me next. And rightfully so.
Nita can I come by and live with you guys?
You are a saint and will go to heaven for putting up with him!

OCT 2011 Moms BlogHaha. Thanks. Just scared I won't know anybody there.
Tell her to pound sand. Her 26 year old son is not your responsibility. If he was so sick wherethefuuk was she?
Well, clearly, he was released into my responsibility when she let him leave Germany and he came to Canada. So automatically, I should have taken care of him. Especially since I poisoned him on his last day here with my shitty food.
Yeah, I keep thinking about writing a response....but then again I am not sure if I want to waste energy on it. Well, I may. Not sure. If I will, it will not be one of my nicer moments.
