"We have no money"

For those of you who have been following the saga of my girlfriend's deadbeat son, there are a few updates.

1). We had to go to municipal court yesterday. Sat there for an hour. This is in regards to our calling the police a month ago over an altercation between my girlfriend's son and his girlfriend. He apparently took some money off of the debit card (they have a joint account). They had both been drinking heavily. She was screaming "I want my money I want my money I want my money" at the top of her lungs, with "fuck you's" flying back and forth. We called the cops, she went to jail. The reason my girlfriend had to go to court is that they were going to have a trial. The officer came out and said "do you want a jury trial or a bench trial" and she turned around and looked at my girlfriend like "HELP ME!" So my girlfriend said she didn't want to press charges, and the two of them slithered off to their car, and we left in ours. I sat on a hard plastic chair for an hour and my ass and back were both killing me. My girlfriend pulled a muscle in her back earlier in the day. She wasn't feeling much better.

2). The agreement that we had was that they would pay $100 per week plus half of the electric bill. They have doubled our bill, so this is completely fair. I had to call the electric company for an extension. Bill has to be paid Friday by 5 PM or the power goes off. He told my girlfriend this morning that they have no money, and he "might" be getting paid Saturday. IF the power goes off, there is an $80 reconnect fee if they turn it on before 4 PM and a $140 fee if they turn it on after that. I told my girlfriend if it comes to that they will pay the $80. As of Sunday they will owe us another $100, plus the $140 for electric, plus $80 if I don't find a paying client by Friday to cover their half until they pay us back...$340.

3). My girlfriend has already told them that they need to be out of here by the end of this month. His response is "I know." When he says "I know," it means "Fuck you, I already heard that, and I don't want to hear it again."

4). My girlfriend told me this morning that she yelled at him over all of this. I told her "I told them when we let them come here that I cannot support them." I have also gotten her to the point where she has agreed to an eviction. If his ass is sitting on the sofa when we get up on November 1st, we are going back to magistrate's court and filing the paperwork. Period.
