Fuck you, too.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>And today had been surprisingly nice until Hilary told me I didn&#8217;t know anything&#8230; why I even try&#8230;<\/em><br \/>\n<em> You think I knew jack shit about what she was talking about? I thought I understood well enough. -__-<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8212;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I apologize to you about the cursing slip at dinner tonight. Admittedly, I had wondered about going at all after the first \u201crun in\u201d with Hilary while in the cat room. I&#8217;ve been tired, the day and a half of missing medications and the fact that Hilary and I have never truly made sense near one another&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Yes. I&#8217;m sorry for the tense moment there&#8230; I&#8217;m not sorry for thinking that about her though.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Again, while Hilary says I don&#8217;t know, I don&#8217;t understand, etc&#8230; Well, at the same time she doesn&#8217;t know, she doesn&#8217;t understand. The difference is, she won&#8217;t even consider or bother to try to if she ever did consider.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Yes, I use the term \u201crich\u201d. As I&#8217;ve tried to explain before though, my \u201crich\u201d is different from her \u201crich\u201d. I know you know that. She just never listens. Sigh. Even when I use the word \u201cwe\u201d I really refer to you and Dad. I&#8217;m fine with how I am really. Spend so much on groceries, so much on mortgage, do chores, have the internet&#8230; Money left over in case you or Dad need some help and when you don&#8217;t, spend a little on something \u201ccollectible\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>When I speak of \u201crich\u201d though&#8230; I mainly say it out of wishes for you and Dad. The we only comes into play due to the fact I live in this house with you and if there is a we, then if I somehow miraculously got enough money, I&#8217;d make all your financial troubles disappear. Because it is nice to dream. It is nice to think of of it. I wasn&#8217;t complaining and I only used \u201cpoor\u201d because it was used by others.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Admittedly, I know I am fortunate not to know what being absolutely wretchedly poor is like. Hilary was right about that one, but I know what it is like to count pennies, scrounge for coupons and buy the cheapest items and food possible. I know what it is like suddenly having near nothing in my bank account by the end of the month because some annoying crisis has occurred. I know what it is like to only have the clothes on my back and a couch as my bed.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I know what it is like to see my parents struggle with money because their kids are idiots and most of the time don&#8217;t even show gratitude. I know what it is like to have to bail out my siblings because Dad has done something \u201chonorable\u201d for them financially. I know what it is like seeing my parents break down because their idiot son stole a great deal of their precious mementos to pawn. Hilary, you weren&#8217;t here during that shit!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Sigh&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I hate to say it&#8230; but I am starting to think I don&#8217;t really love her and only tell myself I do. I think I try to. I think I might say \u201cI love her, but&#8230;\u201d when it is really only being said to convince myself I do.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I had many bad thoughts at dinner this evening. Bad karma indeed.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In order to survive the rest of this \u201choliday\u201d&#8230; I might just stay in my room until she is gone. &#8216;Cause&#8230; like many other things I have come to terms with this year&#8230; I think I really just can&#8217;t be around her much. She has never been good for me and likely never will&#8230; How can I keep telling myself I love her because she&#8217;s my sister&#8230; when I want her gone? When I want her to just&#8230; Sigh.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8212;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I send one thing and now&#8230; Hilary and San Antonio.
