Uh, Wenry, what do you mean you're going home and not telling anyone about the person on the inside who's a huge threat to everyone?
Girl, you in danjah . . .

The first of the two books is out. I'm too nervous to request an advance copy. It's so weird to see my thoughts bound in a book. It feels like something spilled out of my head and somehow was accidentally recorded.

I am going to keep my head in the sand until the general mailing, and then.....I am probably going to do nothing.

Of course, this THRILLS my mother and she jumps right in.

My sister says,"She won't listen to US trying to HELP HER AND MAKE HER LOOK BETTER. She just goes to all her little friends who tell her how beautiful she is and how much they love her."

My mom then goes into her FAVORITE rant...ALL my friends would agree with her; that my appearance is TERRIBLE but if they tell me the truth, I'll flip out at them.

SHE, apparently, is the ONLY one who loves me enough to tell me the truth...that I need a complete makeover and am completely beastly.

I don't know what got into me, but I just started screaming bloody murder at both of them.

I feel like my heart is about to burst out of my chest right now. I hate when I end-up reacting like an insane person, but they make me so angry I just can't see straight.

Even if I was Quasimodo, I would not deserve this.

What could possibly be wrong with your eyebrows? Who cares about your toenails? Why are they so obsessed about your hair? Do they need you to obsessively flat iron it? Doesnt your sister have a family to worry about?

CIBC, I am going to be in NJ in three weeks. May I please come meet your mother and sister just to give them each a piece of my mind? How dare they speak to you that way? And how dare they speak for me or any one else who calls you a friend? The are way, way, WAY OUT OF LINE. I am glad you stood up to them, you cannot allow such abuse.

Please tell me that you will be making enough money to move out. I really think it is the best thing you can do for yourself.

I am convinced that the two of them have such serious self esteem issues, that they take it out on you. Your sister must have learned it from mom. Every time you experience any kind of positive (and starting a new job is a big positive) or they feel a personal negative, it's you they strike out at. Joining forces only strengthens the power trip. I would pity them if I didn't dislike their behavior so much.

These 3 days off were such a joy, even though my job is a good one.

After I've worked for a year, I'm going to see if I can persuade them to let me work part-time. I wish I did not need the money!!!

There's a saying something like sweet to do nothing. Dolce far niente - I think that's it, in Italian. That's how I feel.

--I did my eyebrows two days ago. The shape is PERFECT but the right one is a bit red. However, it will be FINE by tomorrow and I also had ZERO MAKEUP ON so all I did was dust some powder over it and it covered it up. WHO PAYS THAT MUCH ATTENTION TO MY EYEBROWS? WHO WHO WHO?

--I actually thought my toes were looking pretty nice! I like the color they are. So...yeah. No idea.

(Why on earth am I justifying this or defending myself in the slightest or trying to figure them out...)

Did I mention that my sister bites her nail to the quick and her fingernails always looks PAINFUL to me? Like, physically hurts to look at them because they're so raw.

Have I EVER said anything about them to her?

I texted her because I felt bad for how I SCREAMED (and I really did scream)...basically said, "Listen, I hate fighting with you. I love you. You know I'd do anything for you and your kids. But you have to understand that I'm a grown woman who has worked VERY hard to accomplish everything I have in life and when you and Mom act like I'm a 15-year-old who needs help being groomed, it makes me act like a 15-year-old in return."

We're still discussing and might have a couple of ways to shave a few bucks off, we'll see. Mr. S was thinking he needed unlimited minutes, but after discussion he realizes he doesn't. But good GRIEF, two iPhones will be expensive. I'm going to look at other phones....do I really need an iPhone??

I'd probably keep at it out of sheer bullheadedness if it weren't so hot.

I'd wish you were here to help, but you'd be miserable: it's 91 and humid as hades here.

Oy vey, Deenie! I say you bring that stupid lamp here (the weather is beyond beautiful), we mix up a couple of margaritas and give the lamp to Mr. Spring to fix.

Saria · 05-28-2012, 10:14 PM

Poor Lust.

Couldn't they off Wrath instead? Jesus that kid's annoying!

Al, I wanted to smack the living daylights out of you for being an annoying twit.

I just adore Armstrong's magically disappearing shirt. Please don't Hughes him!

This has been another Fullmetal mini-rant.

I'm quoting this because I like it so much and want to like it again but I can't.

Have you listened to any other AKFG? They're such a great band.

Saria · 05-28-2012, 11:26 PM

No, just this thanks to Fullmetal Alchemist.

Sigh, Mustang is totally not going to make it out of this alive either. Boo, I wanted him and Hawkeye to have babies!

Saria · 05-28-2012, 11:45 PM

Noooooo, FMA! You did not just bust out with Chopin's "Tristesse" while killing my Roy Mustang!

Saria · 05-28-2012, 11:52 PM

OMG, he's alive! Thank you, thank you! You might kill him next series or something, but I don't care! He made it through this one!
