Following Jacob’s meltdown at breakfast and my talk with him afterwards, me and the boys spent the afternoon like any Monday afternoon since I started coming over, except I didn’t look at my watch. Me and Jacob had a great time figuring out the pitching machine, and Matteo’s even stopped asking when our time together … Continue reading Jacob’s Meltdown (last part)

Jacob’s Meltdown (part 2)
Jacob had a meltdown while we were having breakfast Monday morning. He broke his plate against the table and went running from the room. And it kind of became my job to go after him. I caught up with him in his room – which he was in the act of trashing. He already pulled … Continue reading Jacob’s Meltdown (part 2)
Jacob’s Meltdown (part 1)
So no sooner have I moved into the pool house permanently than we got hit by some major drama around the Sharpman house. If I’d told you that one of the boys had a meltdown, y’all’d probably have guessed that, what with the diet and all, it’d be Matteo, right? Then you’d be wrong. Maybe … Continue reading Jacob’s Meltdown (part 1)
Moving to the Pool House
Moving day has come and gone, and I’m now permanently living in the Sharpmans' pool house. We spread the moving of my furniture and shit into Maya and Robert’s storage unit over two days. Keaton went over the Uhaul place Thursday morning to get us a truck and some more boxes, since I didn’t get … Continue reading Moving to the Pool House
Keaton Turns 34
It looks like that the last big event to be held in my apartment before I move permanently to the Sharpmans’ pool house will have been Keaton’s 34th birthday party, not that it was much of a party this year, what with, well, y’all know what’s the excuse for everything… It was just me, Keaton, … Continue reading Keaton Turns 34
Baseball Boy’s Twitter
Destiny called me the day after I told Joyce about the move. She caught me right after dinner. Since Dr. Peterson’s come back, the boys have had more homework to do, so they haven’t been over to hang out with me almost every evening like we were doing back when the bubble was on. That … Continue reading Baseball Boy’s Twitter
Getting Ready for the Move
So I told Juan Diego that I was moving out. His answer was “hehe…East Pasadena’s not good enough for you anymore now that you’re a TV star, eh?” I’m not the only person in our complex who’s been having trouble paying the rent, so he totally understood. It’s not easy making it in the situation … Continue reading Getting Ready for the Move
I Reckon I Make Up My Mind
“Of course you have to take it, bubba,” Keaton said, when I got him on facetime later that evening. I’d of loved to discuss it with him face-to-face, but the bubble was still on for another few days. “You don’t have a choice.” “Yeah…but…I like having my own place…and it’s awesome having you next door…and…” … Continue reading I Reckon I Make Up My Mind
Maya Makes Me an Offer
Last Thursday, the day after the riot at the Capitol, Maya told me at breakfast that she wanted to see me in her office. She didn’t tell me why, and I was a pretty nervous that I was in trouble somehow. Maya’s office is on the first floor of the house, but on the opposite … Continue reading Maya Makes Me an Offer
Armenian Christmas (last part)
Armenian Christmas morning at the Sharpmans was pretty cool and chill. They got together and got me a tie and cufflinks I could wear with my tux… Then we had breakfast and I went back to the pool house to shower and shave. I put on the TV to see if there was anything about … Continue reading Armenian Christmas (last part)
