Hypersensitivity to Sounds ~ Alanda B...

I constantly want to scream whenever I'm around my brother. He is the embodiment of all my pet peeves. He sucks on his food, he smacks his lips with every bite, he slurps his drinks - every single damn time. It is like a million attacks on my hypersensitivity. It never fails to make me on edge. I am forever fighting the urge to shout. 
We've (my mother and I) talked to him about this idiosyncratic issue of his multiple times. He usually stops for about 2 minutes, then starts again. Or - and this is so much worse - he does it worse on purpose to get me going. The thing that makes me mad about this brotherly prank is that HE ALSO HAS HYPERSENSITIVITY ISSUES! You would think this would make him more sympathetic rather than less sensitive. 
I am forever walking on eggshells to avoid upsetting him but when he knows something is getting to me do you think for even a second he returns the favor? Nope. Not once. 
When he finally finishes his meals or beverages I'm not even able to calm down because he just starts sucking on his spit. It's RIDICULOUS! 
And now I've quit ranting. Thank you for taking the time to read and learn a little bit about my struggles.

Resolutions, Affirmations, & Reminiscent Thoughts - Leon B.

I want to change my habits of smoking down to 15 - 20 cigarettes a day. I like my housemates and like the group. I haven't seen my sister in almost 4 years. I miss my dad, my stepdad, *Ronnie Mills, Jeff Rice*, my grandparents. I also miss former rappers and divas. 

*If the aforementioned persons wish to have their names removed, I will do so. I simply write what is submitted and will edit this if it becomes necessary.*

I turned 42 years old and got birthday pictures and presents early. I'm going to give presents to my housemates and plan to visit my mom. I try to visit my mom but I haven't seen my sister in about 6 months so I need peer support. I got dentures 2 weeks ago which is an adjustment.
