my mom thinks i'm cool ([personal profile] merelyn) wrote2004-02-09 11:27 pm

(no subject)

So I've a really shitty evening. First off, I'm still really upset about my dad, who has joined a church and become homophobic. I don't know if he accepts me anymore, which is something you should never doubt about your parents.

Secondly, my uncle died today. I never met him. His name was Michael; he was mentally retarded and spent most of his life in a special needs facility. My mom and especially my grandmother are really upset. I am too.

Thirdly, during the pre-audition dance thing for "Fiddler on the Roof" (where they teach you the dance you're going to do at the audition) I fell, embarrassed myself, and managed, I think, to pull a tendon in my ankle. So I wasn't able to learn the rest of the dance, not that it matters anyway, because unless the damn thing miraculously heals overnight, I won't be doing any dancing whatsoever at my audition tomorrow. So I'm probably not making it in. That's disappointing (to say the least).

And all of this random crap has just been building, and I've been crying on and off for a while all evening. So. Someone cheer me up. Please.

Mere I love you very very much, and if you are feeling bummed you can always call me. And if I'm not there right when you call, then I'll call you back. No matter what.

Mere-
I'm sorry it's too late to call you. Maybe you are online. *checks* No. Well tomorrow I'll call you. I might be going up with Mom for the funeral. Love you, and whatever happens I'll see you on Friday.

Meriweridith, you know I love you, and you DO know that your father loves you. You are very loved by both your family and friends (e.g. me). I am really sorry about your uncle, but I am sure he went peacefully. And about your Fiddler on the Roof audition, first of all, you probably didn't do half as bad as you think you did, and second of all, who cares? there are plenty of shows in college, and you might get involved in something completely different that is wayyyy more fun. Third of all, I'm sorry about your ankle, just don't put pressure on it, and it'll be fine. Fifth of all, I am calling you. Tonight. Okay? Well, even if it isn't okay, I'm still calling. Ha.

Ha. Thats what I get for replying to things in my e-mail without looking at everything first.

Hmm...Somebody can't count.

Anyway, thank you, Anna. I'm doing a lot better now, but you're still welcome to call me anyway. :)

Like I told Meg, it's all about the book of Samuel. Nothing tops bible beaters like the "love covenant" of David and Jonathan.
