gone

*going to work early just to get out of the house*

again, i renew my claim that he's a bastid

at least it's an external conflict. it's not like you can feel any guilt or shame for the situation. he's being a dick, straight up, no confusion.

it's a hard choice too, if it's really a choice between medical or leaving. take your pick: be betrayed by your body or be betrayed by your kin.

i wonder if your dad's dick-ishness has anything to with your brother's anniversary. (i'm trying to find some saving grace for the man before i completely dismiss him as a human being)

I agree with everything except for the closing sentiment.� I've not heard anything ever about the man that keeps him on my list of humans.� He was dismissed long ago.

But the rest was so good, I can't think of anything to add.
