Last night was good I think. Finally got to go to my Aunt's to see favorite cousin Felicity. She played me some more songs on her guitar. I played her more of mine. My sister is home. It's acctually kind of nice. She's leaving friday but not before I demolish her hands and feet with henna. Anyway, We all had a big sing along. Aunt Candy, Dewey, Felicity, Felicity's daughter Sahara(she screamed, acctually), Aunt Judy, Uncle Jack, Morgan, my mom and dad. It was really nice. Old John Prine and Bob Dylan songs. Their heading North and Felicity said she'll come see us on their way back. Sahara was a little sick and was crying and screaming so I sang her "Nearness of you" and she shut right up. It made me feel like something positive for once. After I was done singing she started waving her little baby arms at me from inside Felicity's grasp squeeling "NA NA NA NA NA!!" So I went over to her where she proceeded to grab my face and touch my lips like she was trying to find a button to turn on sound. I love that girl.
As we left, Felicity yelled to our car "Don't stop singing, kiddo!!!" It's nice to have family. Family is the only thing that you can really never shake. You can disown someone...but you can't get rid of your genes and your habbits and the blood you share. I never realized how much I could be like my family or that I could even LIKE my family but I guess this is something mature I'm learning for the first time: being apart of something.
~Today looks to be...bleh. Still moody. "Raisin in the Sun" is playing on AMC this morning...and I have some Kathrine Hepburn movie checked out. so, It might just be another "hang out with my moody self" day. I get my pictures back from Bellingham today. And Friday is Val's birthday thing which I must go to. Because A) I love Valerie, B) this will be like the 6th birthday of hers I've gone to and C) socialization is not my strong point at the moment and I should step out of my boundaries.
