"Verbal" Vomit


Why is it always the case that unhappy people want to make others unhappy? Misery loves company, I guess.  I just don’t understand it.  I find joy in other people’s joy.  Sure, I find sorrow in their heart break too but at the end of the day, I lay my head down a happy person.  I’m happy with where my life is right now.  I’m happy with how I look, my job, my relationship, etc.  So why does my mother force herself upon me to ensure that all the things that make me happy seem not to matter?  She constantly insults everyone and everything around her and it makes me sad to be around her.  She is very unhappy and it’s not my job to fix it.  I guess it’s a good thing that I don’t feel responsible for it.  It’s not my fault.  I’d like to blame my sister but she just manipulates everyone around her.  I guess isn’t comforting that I know I’m an honest person, no matter what.  I know there are people who appreciate that.  My family doesn’t because they aren’t honest and they don’t like being caught in their bull shit.  At some point, I think it’s better not to catch them.  I can float around in the fog that is life, not knowing that every member of my family is in a constant spiral of dishonesty.  Is that better?  I think it must be. 

Side note – Stef was considering drinking again with her friend Alyssa when she’s in New York City next weekend.  Like must be fucking hard when you have no job and get to travel to NYC for the weekend.  She has this big come to Jesus with her therapist and my mom where she decided she wasn’t going to drink.  The simple fact that it took serious consideration just makes me laugh.  She can struggle with addiction and I’m fine with that.  I almost want to say I hope she falls of the wagon again so they maybe snap out of their ridiculous fog.  But then again, why would she?  She completely lives on them and a hard day is spending $250.00 on 1 single pair of jeans.  I’m glad she enjoys her life. 

I’ve been thinking about going to a counselor to have someone to talk to about all of this stuff.  I know nothing is ever going to change and that I really need to learn to accept it.  But I think it might be helpful to go and talk it out.  If anything, someone to tell me that these feelings I have are justified and okay.  That I don’t owe them anything and that it’s okay to move on with my life.  I want to move to a foreign country where they won’t come visit.  I hope they won’t, at least.

I need to get out this weekend.  That’s for sure.  I wish I had someplace to come home to that was quiet so I didn’t have to deal with them.  But, alas, I do not.  I might go over to my aunt and uncles maybe.  They are pretty laid back and it might be nice to get away for a while.  Unfortunately, I can’t go without Skoot.  I wish she was with me right now so I could take her with me.  She’s such a good pup.  I know she tries so hard and I can’t wait until she’s out of this unhealthy environment.  I’m sure she’s unhappy knowing how unhappy I am.  She responds really sensitively when she thinks that I’m upset.  It’s really adorable.  She really is my pup.  I hope she’s okay in Alaska.  I have to send her up to Jeremy for a few weeks until he moves down here because my Step Dad apparently can’t handle her being at the house.  It’s really unfortunate because this whole thing is so stupid.  I know Jeremy will take good care of her and I just hope that she will be happy there.  It’s only for a short time and then she’ll be back with me.  I’m nervous about her flying, for the first time, by herself though.  On the way back, she will be with Jeremy on the plane.  I’m going to buy him a T-shirt that says it’s his girlfriend’s dog.  I think it will be cute to see him and Skoot together.  I’m sure she will warm up to him eventually.  It will suck to be away from her for so long.  But at the moment, it’s what’s best for her because she’s not okay in the current environment.  Understanding that makes it easier to deal with being away from her.  I feel like I’m sending her away but I’m sending her to one of the only people I can trust to take care of her.  I just hope he doesn’t get annoyed with her cuz I know she’s a pain.  She’s my little pain though J.  It will seem like she’s gone forever but then it will go by fast, I’m sure.  I do wish I could take her up there so she didn’t have to fly alone but I’ll sedate her.  Hopefully she won’t even wake up on the plane so she won’t know what happened.  That would be ideal!

In other news, Jeremy is moving down in January.  Skoot will be back down then and will move into my old apartment with him.  Then he will stay there until April with Skoot.  And then we all move into a house or condo together.  I’m hoping we can find something a little nicer than a shitty apartment but at the same time, we might save money being in an apartment.  They aren’t much less expensive than a townhouse, for example, so I think that’s a better option.  We are also getting a 2 bedroom so we can have some extra space to spread out.  I think it will be nice to have an office or just an escape pod for a while.  We also need to look at buying a new car for him.  Maybe new vehicles for both of us?  I really want a new car but that can wait a while.  My truck still runs fine.  If something goes wrong though, it will be unfortunate.  It would just be very nice to have something a bit more fuel efficient. 

Btw, I’m at work but there isn’t anything to do so I’m writing because there is shit on my mind.  I’m definitely feeling better than I was before.  I think I just needed to get some complaining off the chest.  Now back to “work”!
