What a horrible day. I am so unhappy I don't even feel like typing everything. The short version is that my mom calls me today and says that my uncle (who lives next door and I love like a father) never came home from his walk this morning. This is at about 2 pm and he walks at 7 am. So I rush home hysterical and in my house is my whole family crying and praying. AWFUL. My cousins (my maids of honor) are crying and wailing "Daddy!" It was TOO MUCH. So I left because I couldn't handle it. I met my dad and we did some investigating. We went to the park where he walks and his car was there but no sign of him. We called the police (they couldn't do anything until after 24 hours), we called all the hospitals, the jail, everything I could think of. Finally, we find a phone number of his friends and we call. The guys wife says that they are together DRUNK somewhere. Can you believe that shit? He dissapears, gets drunk, and doesn't even bother calling home. I'm so mad at him.
Not to mention embarrassed. His poor daughters must be dying. We all left our jobs hysterical, crying and now we have to explain tomorrow what happened. I for one am lying my ass off. My uncle has always been a drinker, but he has NEVER pulled anything like this. I hope that the guilt of all the problems he caused keeps him from doing this shit again. So basically I spent my whole day crying, throwing up, and trying to keep my family together while they were all popping pills and crying. Shitty day.
