Whiskey tango foxtrot, over

Okay, am I the only one weirded out by that rollaway in the motel room?

Because bunking in with two GROWN-ASS MEN–WHO INCIDENTALLY ARE OLDER THAN YOU– even though you understand they’re your sons, seems a leeeeeeetle on the weird side, you ask me… 

Well, I suppose.  But if your funds are limited, paying for another room when, actually, it makes you more comfortable to know where everyone is at all times so you don’t panic, doesn’t make much sense.  

I think it does, though, point out the implications of a hunting lifestyle, that because of these practicalities it is going to promote very enmeshed relationships.  When weighing the pros and cons of your resources and risks, lots of boundaries get busted in the service of maintaining the family’s mission and keeping everyone safe.   

I would have given good money to see that fight over the rollaway, though.
