me: hey
just saw that i missed a call
from you
Emily: its ok
i was just calling to say hi
and ask how you are doing?
me: feeling horribly nauseous etc right now
and i had a long and bad day
Emily: awwww im sorry
what happened?
me: basically i slept horribly because im sick and congested, and upset which is making me have bad dreams and restless sleep
ad im irritable
and my grandma was being so unreasonable this morning
and like nothing i did was "right"
even though im unquestionably expected to do it all
its like.. id like time to relax and grieve and be with my thoughts, too
but instead im running around doing everything
and then jessica came up again and my whole fucking family wants me to again be the bigger person
but im so fucking tired of always being the bigger person
especially with her
especially when she starts this kind of petty shit
and the county gave me no answers about paying for the cremation or not
and i had to deal with that fucking bitch again
Emily: did you fight her?
me: and then my grandma must have been having a bad morning, because i was trying to talk to her about the errands i was going to run for her that day and then later this week/month
and she just started yelling
in her highpitched hysterical kind of way
and saying fine we wont have a memorial, and i dont need my things from my storage, i can just die
Emily: wow
me: and locked herself in her room
which pissed me off
because i have been bending over fucking backwards for her doing EVERYTHING I CAN
including taking time during finals week to go clean her storages on top of all this
its like.. cut me a fucking break
when i came out of the shower, she'd left this like dramatic note on the kitchen counter
saying something like 'fine, just have a double memorial so you all wont have to deal with all this.. im lonely already and he was my other half"
its like.. that's so unfair
im already doing all i can
Emily: woooow
me: i already talk to her all the time on the phone
im doing all this
Emily: thats crazy\
me: idk what she expects
its not crazy, i mean.. she's upset
i understand that
but it frustrates me
and i cant be patient ALL the time
like, i have feelings too
and right now i feel fucking underappreciated and worn down

Emily: jeez
