I'm at home from work today. Yesterday was my brothers wedding, I took two days of leave from work because of the hangover I was expecting to have, haha. It was nice. There are things I love about my family, I loved how casual everything was and how cool it was to be so informal. His partner was looking at him so _adoringly_ and he looked awkward as he said his vows, but still happy.
Cav was really sick which was a shame. The wedding was on the mountain so if he left I'd have to go with him because there's no public transport and I can't drive - but my brother found a room for Cav to sleep in, and Cav rested in there. He'd wanted to go home but got that being there was important to me (I only see members of my family like my brother and my youngest sister like once a year and treasure the time I do get to spend with them, plus, my bros wedding is kind of an important event.)
My bro sought time to have private conversations with each of his siblings except our youngest sister (he sees her regularly because they live nearby, also, they don't get along...) - We did the ritual bitching about our mother. She wasn't invited to the wedding and apparently according to her and her sisters/friends this is symptomatic of my bro having schizophrenia. (He doesn't have schizophrenia or a history of it in his family (He's my step-brother) and he hasn't been diagnosed with any mental illness ever.) - Oh lol.
He also said he really liked Cav and was happy for me because my dude treats me awesomely. That made me feel pretty nice.
It was nice.
I worry about my youngest sister whenever I see her though and how she's going to turn out. She has been treated very differently by our parents (particularly our mother) then the rest of us and I don't understand her as a person very well at all actually, but, she's a worry. I might just be an over-protective sister though.
