So last night was the cancer benefit for my aunt.
It went so well and I was so proud.
I honestly didnt think I could handle being there but I did it.
I had to leave work early because I could'nt stop crying.
I had cried the nigh before but that was from my mother and then the night of the benefit I wanted to like flip out on my mom due to the fact she was breaking a promise and continuing to live out her legacy of a complete douche,
But being a somewhat forgiving person and repsectful of of my aunts honor I let it pass.
Also while dancing with my cousin and my aunt, it occurred to me...people of all generations were there. Just with my cousin and my aunt...and me thats three generations and it was my family.
My family doesnt get together like that,
They fight and talk shit.
but for one night...everyone put it all behind the and danced to really bad music and gave money for a cancer fund.
sure alcohol was a component but it was relatively lovely.
I cannot believe peoples generosity.
I miss you Aunt Michele <3
