Crystals Family Has Left the Building...

updated #2 for the day - might as well report while its fresh in my head.
just got off the phone with my older sister - shes 34.
her and her husband are getting divorced after christmas - but he doesnt know it yet. shes seeing some other guy and hes got some 22 year old gf. this whole thing started when he(her soon to be ex husband) had an affair about this time last year and she found out about it.
so - basically i wont be seeing him anymore after christmas. and yes, im sad - when someone is your brother-in-law for 10 years you do care.
and i always thought he was fun and cool. i mean, he has his faults and shes not happy so im not upset at her decision. but basically our family christmases are always held at their house, which actually they just built a brand new house about a year ago as well. and i go over there and just have fun and he hooks me up with sweet deals when i need something - tires, concert tickets, car parts, etc etc etc.
its just a small disruption in my life that i could live without.
on top of that -- my brother(hes 32) and i havent spoken at all since this summer. long story but hes wrong and im right. you would have to know him to understand.
but yeah -- so i have been thinking maybe i would buy a nice christmas card to include with his present this year and just go all out and write about how hes my brother and i love him and if we arent talking - fine - but its christmas time and this whole thing is stupid... or something along those lines.
welcome to crystal has the most fucked up family EVER!
and im sad. officially.
i declare.
on top of that - my brothers wifes(my sister in law... are you lost yet?)dad died night before last.
*sigh* merry christmas to them huh?
i met him like maybe 10 times in my life - but its freaky. and i feel horrible for them. even if she is a bitch to me nonstop.
whatever. maybe none of this is a huge deal and i should get over it but when my sister called and ended with "I just wanted to make sure you were going to be here Christmas Eve because this may be the last time the whole family is together...." i almost lost it.
i just see how my mom has been alone for the last 20 years and i can see my sister going right down that same road.
she said she doesnt want to ever get married again. all men are assholes. according to her.
just figured i would write because im pretty sad/pissed/upset and definantly ready for the holidays to be over.
merry christmas crystal
