making other kids' lives a living hell since 2005™

Ed got this email from his sister Kendra today:

I don't know why, but Elian's been on Thurston's mind lately. The other day he said having Elian around made his life "a living hell", not so much because of anything Elian did but because when Elian visits, Laura's kids say he's their favorite cousin. Then yesterday Thurston said that maybe he should "rethink his life" and try to act like Elian even though he doesn't think Elian's the best thing on the planet or something. It sounds like Thurston's really looking forward to your visit next week.
