Weekend recap...

Lets see a few hours we spent before leaving Katy, consisted of me trying to figure out what few items I can take with me - measuring the depth of my soul and my willingness to go beyond the materialistic, not to mitchen opening so many old wounds from last year, just in time to spend 28 hours in a two car caravan on the open highway.

During the 28 hours (some of which was spent on back roads to avoid traffic) I only gained a greater depression, dehydration (the pearl is still with out ac) and my skin which I had finally got to clear up is right back to square one.

During my time in Longview, I realized there is absolutely nothing to do at night if your a girl.. so night one was spent with my Cousin Nikkie watching Emily Rose... again. The second was spent watching The Corpse Bride (more on that when I'm feeling better) both at maybe two star theaters at best. I did get my hair cut though I look like a Pixie again. Oh and Imagine how it feels to arrive in Longview just in time to hear the Hurricane shifted and is now heading for LA and East Texas.. oh happy sorrow.

Leaving day! My parents began arguing about whether or not we should leave, my dad wins and we leave. I guess they continued to Fight on the home, because they certainly haven't stopped since we got home. I believe they are on the edge of a Divorce. Doesn't' t really bother me anymore, as long as I'm not pulled into the middle of this - which they have attempted many times over. My Dad wants me to say my Mom's nuts, I'm telling him they both are. My Mom wants me to stand up to my dad about all his Angerment BS, - No thanks Ma, my days backed up against a wall are done. ( by that comment I'm not saying my dad was abusive - I swear he wasn't - just intimidating as hell) I'm just thankful my brother and I road in the pearl together. Because on the up side we now have a better relationship - the kind brother and sisters should have, united against the forces of insanity. My poor brother though, his snake couldn't take the stress and died. No one (mom and dad) seemed to care much about that either, just another tool to fight with. So Jake and I went to see Bewitched ( more later on) and ended up spending the rest of the night after mom and dad went to sleep watching Jay and Silent Bob and eating chips and salsa and drinking Coke and Rum.

And I am almost certain We haven't seen the all the fruits of this venture....
