When yr shitting in a bucket with a bit of bleach in it all winter only at night , and we each had our own private bucket at least you learn real quick to get used to it . The smell now , makes me ill double fast . Cleaning up after the cats , rat and dog is horrible . At least my partner ' s housebroken . I can kind of understand that , then . I still do that . Except instead of homework , I ' ll force myself to stay up ' til all hours when I gotta be out the door by 530 am to catch the ferry . I solved that problem in school by being such a huge , socially awkward nerd that I usually had all my homework done before school was out for the day . Also theoriginally posted thing is bullshit of the highest order I was disowned by my paternal side , so I can relate to the whole extremely conditional love thing , but I think , or am coming to think , that signing ' contracts ' of a vastly different nature wasis relatively normal . My bro and I had to sign off on our ' chore sheets ' and stuff , acknowledging allowance would be docked for each skipped chore . Stuff like that . Apologies to anyone reading I have a hard time sticking to topics , and am nigh incapable of being brief .
