Well, things are going ok.
Despite the events of last weekend, bob and I are doing ok. We saw eachother wednesday through friday this week, and everything has been patched up. Bob is doing ok as far as work goes- he gets to be manager of a much closer store, not Gurnee Mills. His grandmother still isn't doing well, unfortunately. However, hes finally getting the proper amount of sleep and food, which made us both feel much better. I've admitted I was incredibly stupid and short-sighted, and he's agreed that he probably overreacted a bit.
Saw my grandmother over spring break. She's doing ok after the death of my grandfather. My computer is still MIA, but my dad is working on that. Schoolwork is going ok, social life a little less so, due to the events of last weekend.
I'm on better terms with my mom, and we talk once a week. Sometimes I feel like I'm more the parent than she is. I have to keep telling her things like no, lipstick isn't going to give you cancer, and no, pouring hot wax into your ears probably won't enhance your hearing. Really, the things parents think up these days.
My parents are ok, but they don't talk much and my stepmom is increasingly frantic and stressed. I'm also worried about their drinking habits. I know, the college kid worried about the parents drinking? But seriously, what would you think of your mother screaming to your grandmother "Tell her! Tell her about the firsht man you loveshd!" Ah, family. My grandmother, bless her, declined to comment.
I'm worried about my schoolwork, my future career, summer, money, family, friends, and my own little batch of odd medical issues. Honestly, who gets temporary asthma, anyway?
But at least I have Bob, and I love him, and he loves me. I think I could deal with anything else if I know I have him to turn to.
