Today, I found the birthday card my grandma had mailed. Apparently, it contained a gift of $100. Too bad it was in my mom's trash can, opened, with no money. She told my grandma it must have gotten lost in the mail. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, it was my birthday. My grandma gave me a hug and a check after wishing me a happy birthday and walked away giggling. I was excited because it was the only gift I had gotten all day. Ten minutes later, I realized that it was actually just my tax refund. FML
Today, my mom had a baby shower. When it was over, I walked around cleaning up the trash. I saw a card sitting on the table, along with a note to my mom saying, "Better luck with this one." At the moment I'm an only child, and the card was from my grandmother. FML
Today, after mourning and making my girlfriend cancel her big birthday party, I found out my grandma didn't actually die. FML
Today, I got a birthday card in the mail from my aunt. I got all excited when I saw a cheque inside, but the cheque was addressed to the wrong name. Not only did my own aunt forget my name, I couldn't even bank the $60. FML

Today, I spent all day at the hospital with my grandma for some tests. When I drove her back home she decided to thank me with $50. Knowing she is unemployed, I told her I couldn't take a whole $50. She replied with "Ungrateful, just like your mother", then took the money and left. FML
Today, I enjoyed a lovely family dinner, but my irritating grandma kept trying to buy my purse off me, and kept picking it up to look at it. When I got home I realized all my cash and cigarettes were gone. FML

So go through her purse and take the $100 from her. It was rightfully yours and you won't be doing anything that your "mother" didn't do to you.

You should definitely tell grandma, whether you get the money back or not. For all you know, your grandma has been funding your mom's crack habit while thinking she was adding to your college fund. Politely suggest to your grandma that if she intends to give any more money, perhaps she could open a bank account that you can withdraw from. This way she can slip you funds without your mother getting in the way.

So you're saying your grandfather is a fucktard, he's just not senile. Thanks for the clarification, dipshit.

Ever heard of a check or perhaps a money order, dumbfuck? There is a reason the Post Office advises against sending cash through the mail. Are you really so ******* stupid as to miss the very simple point I was making? Please don't reproduce because there are too many ******* idiots in the world.

Call your grandma and let her know her daughter's a stealing bitch. Then, get your money back (HINT: purse)

that's why you never mail cash, too easy to steal. Should have put the money right into your account through her bank (my grandparents do that) or sent a cheque written out to you. Tough luck.. your mom is a jerk for doing that. If she needed the money that badly she could have at least asked
