Call from my brother

My brother called yesterday. he wanted to know if I called my mother last week for Mother's Day. Of course I did. He just wanted to act like a guy in charge. He has always tried to do that. He's an asshole, and always has been.

My brother is the star of my mother's life, even though he's a phoney and a bum. He's back living with my motheer now that his porn-video store has been crushed by the Internet.

He was always smart but lazy. He did well in school until he had to study and then he cheated. He got through college that way too. He was charming and a blow-hard and could fool people for a while, but eventually they all got sick of him.

He was supposed to go to medical school but he crashed his car in his junior year and had to leave college. It was really a lot of shit. I think he was failing his chemistry course and couldn't tell my mother. That's when Patti realized he was a bum, so she left him. She came to tell me why she was finsihed with him, and I told her how much better I was than him anyway. She took me up on it and we had a thing for that whole summer. it was great. I was just starting college and she was just finishing. We were both working down at The Cape and screwing in all these great places.

My asshole brother never forgave me for that. He still yells at me about it.

If he doesn't I remind him.
