At midnight, my brother wrote an advance note, saying "Gone for tubes 5:45". At one, my mom woke up, saw the note and freaked out, saying it was a big, bold lie and that Satan was working through him - and through me, because I didn't see what the big deal was. Sixteen hours later she's still giving him the silent treatment, not even courteous enough to answer questions.
She wanted to get in the car and go, and not come back. I was so tired and fed up that I thought, hey, you know what, if she gets pulled over and fails a breath test, maybe she'll learn some responsibility. Even so, I stayed up for yet another night, waiting for sounds, looking out the window. I didn't think she'd act, and I was right. But to use her words, he's "the biggest liar ever and such a traitor, the prick." Poor guy. I never thought he and I would be on the same team. It always used to be Mom and me. But last night she called me a dumbass bitch, so I think she's going to be kicked out soon. It's alright, she has a place to go. So do Lorne and I. It's just so weird. She preached such integrity back in the day, always wanted to do the right thing, and now she's letting this, if not making this, happen.
All I can say is, good. You know what? I'm ready for change. I just don't want things to be the same in 2018 as they are now. Because chair padding can't be dented. Because you can't use the shredder. Because you can't type fast like I do. Otherwise you will be cussed out. It's ridiculous.
And she wonders why I stay in bed...
