Reverting back to high school in 2 days flat!

[sexybubble]

Sometimes I feel like I've reverted back to high school, only now drink excessively and chainsmoke openly, rather than hiding up in my room avoiding my family. And now, I'm not even avoiding them in my room! Thanks to the modern marvel of wireless internet, I can be anti-social AND sit in the living room all at once! Then, of course, I run the risk of a Lifetime movie about a hate crime against a transwoman [Gwen Araujo] coming on tv and ending up watching it with my mom, dad and sister. My mom clearly wants to have one of those huggy, kissy, "Oh, life is gonna be so hard for you, I love you honey" conversations with me, which I'd prefer to avoid having again. My sister...I don't particularly know what that look meant. My dad has actually become an expert in the past few years of sighing, grunting and rolling his eyes at wonderful points in movies. It was pretty great, I gotta say. I don't know. This really has nothing to do with why I was really awesome in New York, then the second I got home I turned into a super asshole. Oh, and also, other fantastic thing! I'm sticking around for another day in Maryland, because I got suckered into going to a family party. Dad's side of the family! It should be fantastic. I mean, I really would like to see some of them, specifically the ones in town from Kentucky, but I don't think the normal six-pack is gonna cut it for the lines of questioning that I'll be getting,which will include, but not be limited to: college, work, politics, sexuality, and gender. It's not that I can't field questions on any/all of these topics, it's just that I suck at it with my family. But, New York soon.

And by the way, anyone who has tried to call or e-mail me recently, sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet. I've been boycotting my phone and e-mail. You kids can blame Dresner for turning me onto that obnoxious habit. I'll talk to you all soon.
