also when i was out getting ice cream today these birds were having like,
a turf war overhead, seriously. like fighting in midair and feathers were flying and i felt like i was in a hitchcock movie. so bizarre.

my mom is having a really hard time. a lot of relationships in her life are going through some serious rough patches, and some of these are family members.
she told me she didn't wanna talk about it over the phone but after awhile she just told me everything.
my grandma isn't coming to my sister's high school graduation. saying she went to "every other graduation" even though i'm the only cousin old enough to have graduated from high school.
and she was like "well i went to the cousins' kindergarten graduations" and said that "it's different because it's private school, you know."
my sister has worked her a** off to get to this place and she won't make the drive down to st louis to see her walk across the stage.
i could go into this whole thing about how i'm graduating from augie next year and what if she doesn't come to my commencement?
but my situation doesn't matter right now. all i know is that my mom and i will cheer loud enough and cry plenty enough for my grandma, and that she's missing out.
and my mom is fighting with her boyfriend because of issues being brought upon by his ex-wife. it's too lengthy/messy to get into on a dls post but basically she's feeling like she's ready to jump ship and just go out to north carolina asap.
also apparently my sister is talking to/seeing a 25 year old????
uhhhhhhh okay like i'm happy for her and all but that's how old vince is.
i feel like 4 years is an okay age difference and that him and i have enough in common in terms of what we've done in our life.
but that's a 7 year age difference for my sister and this guy. and my mom is fine letting her go to this concert in nashville with him? alone?? my mom said "i'd rather her go with this guy and have him make sure she doesn't get roofied or anything, because she was gonna go with one of her (female) friends and i would just worry about them getting drugged."
but who said that HE isn't gonna be the one to drug her? seriously?
i don't even know how the ******** she met this guy. she's a senior in high school and he's a grown a** man, i think it's pretty obvious what he wants out of her.
and the worst part is that ever since my sister turned 18, she's like "i'm an adult let me make my own decisions please" my parents have a five year age difference and my mom is like "well your father was 23 and i was 18 when we got married" but ajsdklfajskld. no. this is my baby sister.
this whole situation just screams "sketchy" to me but i know she'd never listen to me. neither of them would.
