you should remember that a family isn't the people that come forth from your loins. a family is the people who care about you and stand by you. they are the people who influence you and are influenced by you.
Thanks for the support. I know I have no room for self pity, but it keeps sliiiiipping into the cracks in my veneer. I think I would be better off if I stopped LJing at the ass-crack. It is tantamount to drunk-dialing.

In semi-related news: I covered a shift at a different store the other day, and one of your pens was there waiting for me. Somebody from that store had snatched it while they were covering at mine, but for a brief moment I was completely weirded.
This is all true. I'm not at as dark a place as I was the hours ago that I wrote that entry, but I am able to see that I shouldn't ignore those feelings just because they aren't as strong when I have slept.
You're right, though. We need to get out. I love my family, and it is comfortable to live here and be taken care of in a way, but I am feeling smothered. Urgh. But it is completely not an option for numerous reasons.
