Happy 2007
Jan. 2nd, 2007 09:42 amHi Nuance, I finished the book you gave me. I enjoyed it. Thanks!
I never updated after Christmas, but it was nice. My parent's didn't fight for a whole day, and even though I had a bad cold, I managed to enjoy myself. we had our typical seafood dinner, and my mom and grandma made too much food as always. I got a bunch of nifty gifts, including She-Ra DVDs from my gramma, a new bathroom from my in-laws, the DDR game thing that allows you to use your own music CDs from my brother, and a GPS from Glenn so I no longer get lost. My favorite was the GPS.
New Year's Eve was fun. Lot's of friends, lots of laughter, very nice. Unfortunately, my joy had to end. My Dad finally got up and left on New Year's Eve (I found out when I finally got through to my family at about 12:30AM. He didn't leave an address where he was going, except to say he was going to PA. to be with some online chick he met. No one knows where he is, or if he is ok. His cell phone either died, or was turned off. My mom is going nuts, because even though she is the one who pushed him away, she now feels guilty and wants him home. My brother's are taking this the worst, ready to go searching for him in PA. Me? I don't know how I feel. I have a nervous ache in my tummy, and I feel I should cry, but don't want to. I am tired of shedding tears over their childish behavior. It just angers me that all they (my parent's) care about is themselves. Yes, they were young when I was born (15 and 17), but they aren't young anymore. They need to grow up. My main concern is for my sister. Like me, she tends to hold her feelings in and it's not healthy. At least I have Glenn to vent to.
My mom begged me to take some time off of work and go to NY. I cannot. First, I would go nuts, with the arguing and crying and blaming, and second, I need to be in the office for the next few weeks for the big project my company is doing. Time off is on a freeze unless it is a real emergency (like death or illness). But I did agree to go to NY this weekend to appease her. Glenn's idea. He figured I would be worrying until I went. He's probably right. I couldn't even sleep last night I had so much on my mind.
But back to happy thoughts. Glenn and I are going to Arisia this year. Yay!
