the working man

ou took the words right out of my mouth.

[salmurray]

Oh, I’m positive. You wouldn’t last two days without me, dimples. Just admit it.

[jamesbakers]

What exactly do you do for me? Exactly.

[salmurray]

Stop kidding yourself, Baker. Your life wouldn’t be complete without me.

[jamesbakers]

Are you sure about that? My life seems a bit less pessimistic when you aren't in it, Red.

[salmurray]

I know this month has been dragging on forever

[jamesbakers]

My New Year's resolution was to have the cat stop dragging things in, but here you are. Hey.

[jamesbakers]

I feel like it's been January for six years.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

I don’t think you’d actually want to turn in the kind of essay i’m capable of writing. 

[jamesbakers]

I'm desperate at this point.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Never thought I’d see the day where I’d be spending my Friday writing an essay.

[jamesbakers]

Do you want to do mine too? I'll pay you.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

If you understand then there’s no need to lie in an attempt to make me feel better, it’s nice- but I’m not stupid. No, Christmas Eve was the first time in a while. 

[jamesbakers]

My bad. I've said it before and I'll say it again. You have her number. You really should tell her how you feel about this shit. Otherwise neither one of you will talk anymore and I really don't know she would do without you. 

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

You don’t even know my parents, James, and let me be the first to tell you how fucking not true that is. They’re still trying to ship me off to my aunts, but she doesn’t want me either. I don’t know, I can’t describe it, it’s just- different now.

[jamesbakers]

You're right. I don't know them. I don't know what to say when it comes to parent shit, because I'm just as fucked as you are in the department. Have... Well, have you tried hanging out with Charlie for like... girls' time? Do you guys do that shit anymore? 

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

And how was I supposed to know that you’d care? Who, Charlie? I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but she’s acting weird. We’re not Andrea and Charlie anymore. 

[jamesbakers]

Charlie cares, Dom cares, and even though you're parents have a shitty way of showing it, they care. What are you even talking about? You guys seemed fine on Christmas Eve. Charlie's always weird. 

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

How unfortunate. I mean that I- God, how do you not get this? Rehab. I can’t talk about it, can’t mention it, can’t mention meetings, can’t tell any other family member about it, can’t fucking think about it. And it happened, y’know? And I’m down to one person that actually gives a fuck. 

[jamesbakers]

Shit. I mean... how was I supposed to know that you weren't allowed to tell people about it? I know that you don't want to hear this, but you have more than one person that cares about you. You wouldn't have even been sent to rehab in the first damn place if only one person cared. 

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

And he’s back. I don’t know, just family shit. Like part of my life isn’t allowed to have existed. 

[jamesbakers]

"He" never went away. What do you even mean by that? Like, no offense, but it doesn't make a lot of sense to me. 

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

You’re right- maybe i’ve spoken too soon, you’ve yet to make an overused religious joke.

[jamesbakers]

I totally forgot. I'll find a way to slip that in later. Are you going to tell me what's up or am I wasting my time?

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

You care, but you could care less? Makes a whole lot of sense. I mean if I told you, you’d crack a joke about it anyways, so I just don’t see a point with boring you.

[jamesbakers]

Right. I'm glad that you know me better than myself. That's totally what I would do if you were confiding in me. You got it. 

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

I would love to listen to your pathetic attempts of comebacks but I don’t have the patience today and like I said, don’t you have somebody to be fucking? Preferably yourself.

[jamesbakers]

I really was asking because I care. Whatever. Hold it in and blame everyone else for your fucking problems. I could care less at this point. 

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Telling you really wouldn’t be worth the waste of breath. 

[jamesbakers]

So... the moth problem. Do you have one stuck up your ass right now or what?

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Don;t you have Charlie or someone to fuck, Baker?

[jamesbakers]

Maybe later. So, what's up with your house? Is it haunted? Do you have a moth problem?

[andrea-reillyxx-blog]

Get me out of this house.

[jamesbakers]

What's the deal this time?
