I haven't broken anything in a while. Not since I nearly screwed up my hand by slamming it into my flatscreen almost a year ago.

I guess I tried to kill my gamecube the other day, but it refused to break, the darned thing. I just got so mad at that friggin cheating boss in Zelda, I won't play that game anymore so I won't lose my mind and toss my cube into a wall or something because that would surely do it in. Don't wanna try so hard...

Someone very dear to me asked how I'm doing.

Well, I *was* doing kinda OK, until I found out just a few hours ago my adoptive father went to Stockholm himself to attend the wake of his sister without even telling me he was going.

It's like I'm not a part of his family at all. We lived on the other side of the country compared to most everybody else all my life. First in the north-south direction, and then the east-west direction. I never got to know any of them, and I have step-cousins that are pretty much my own age. We could have been friends!

How can he do this to me? Maybe I didn't want to go, but he could at least have ASKED?! Is he embarrassed of me or something?

It's always THEM doing stuff these days on their own, usually without telling me about it, I didn't know they were going away for his birthday either until a few days before, and then I had to beg them to stop by on the way south. For fuck's sake, they even passed through here to get to their damn health spa, was it TOO much to ask for that they'd get the idea on their own??????

They've been to the canaries and to Italy and France and Spain too on their own. When we went abroad in the past we always went together. Now I just sit here by myself...

I thought I had convinced myself I don't care about them, I tell myself I hate them and wish they were DEAD so I could inherit them and bury them and all the shitty memories I carry around on because of them along with them, but now I feel like crying.

How can he DO this to me?! He KNOWS I haven't seen the rest of my so-called family more than twice in the last decade!

To put it mildly, this SUCKS.



"But he that hath the steerage of my course,
direct my sail."
