Think nothing of it, Classic. Thread drift is one of the joys of the cellar. It sounds like Brenda will be getting out of the hospital and be able to get around with the use of a walker. Haven't heard if her injuries are permanent or not.

I really, really hope that she will continue to press charges against junior because:

a) He should be punished for this - at the very least locked up on a state ward for the criminally insane for a very long time.

b) The last thing I need is for him to get out of jail and kiss and make up with Mom. The walls of these apartments are thin and I don't want to encounter a stray bullet next time around.
