So it's wednesday and I'm at work, and I have nothing else to do besides read....and if you know me, it's not something I enjoy. I already killed the first hour by checking all my email accounts and the weather and all that crap....so now it's LJ time. Nothing much has really happened since the last update on monday....except for the fact that my brother (the oldest of the 2) is a fucking asshole. So I called my mom up on monday to see what she wants for her b-day, but as usual, she doesn't know what she wants....so I have no clue what to get her and I have to find something for her this weekend at the mall at one point. Anyways, I asked her to send me my Brownie sash b/c i might be a "Dirty Girl Scout" for Halloween.....pending on how many badges I have on my sash. If there's only like 2 then I'm not going to do it b/c everyone will know that I obviously didn't achieve much...haha. I love Halloween. PS...what else could I be?
So back to the story about my brother Matt (I'll call him "fuck-up" b/c that's what he is). Ok, so you all know he has some serious issues....I mean, real serious. I don't really know if he's still on drugs or whatever....he says he doesn't anymore....but either he's lying or he has some sort of split personality. Everytime he'll go home....if he ever does....he'll be a complete different person. Sometimes super nice and normal and just very pleasant to have around....or he'll be a complete asshole to everyone. Basically if you look at him in the slightest wrong way, he'll beat your ass. Not joking. I've never met someone that will say such nasty, disgraceful and hurtful things to anyone than him. So the other day, he got in the huge fight with my mom. She wants him to move out b/c he does nothing....he doesn't work....doesn't go to college anymore....nothing. He doesn't even want to be home either b/c he "hates" everyone. So there's really no point why he should be home. He acts like he's an adult and thinks he can do whatever he wants at home....but at the same time, he doesn't want to have the responsibility of living on his own b/c he knows damn well that he can't manage on his own without my mom's help. He'll never admit to it though. So they got in this huge fight as usual. However this time my mom was crying and everything and I know damn well that he hit her (but she would never tell me that). During this, my "normal" brother Lucas was in the other room and was scared for mom's sake and therefore called 911....haha (sorry I have to laugh...even though it's really not that funny...if you knew my little brother you would too). So he called about it and then the next thing you know, all the police are coming into the house....unfortunately Matt had already left. It's times like those when I just want to be home. I just feel so bad for my mom with all the shit she has to put up with from him....she's done everything for him yet he treats her like shit. If I was there at the time, he'd be fucking sorry. I'd probably end up in the intensive care unit after a fight with him, but it would be worth it for my mom. I'm just really proud of Lucas for actually standing up to his ass. He's a lot bigger than Matt even though he's 2 years younger, but he's not a "fighter" kind of guy....he's very peaceful and just keeps to his own business I guess you could say. He would always just let Matt sort of beat him up back in the day and just take it. Anyways, he stood up to him and I think Matt was kind of shocked that he did. Matt just pisses the hell out of me. I try so hard to think that everything will be ok with him and that soon he'll realize what he's doing and will change, but at the same time, I get so angry that I just hate him for ruining our family. I'm so sick of giving people chances all the time when they do nothing on their behalf. Ok....I'm done with that.
So I'm excited about tonight. Me and Jim are making a pie (no, not a legacy....haha...j/k)...a lil' pumpkin pie b/c that's what he wanted. Should be fun....and hopefully it will turn out ok. Oh, and then this weekend we're going to take a lil' walk around the shops downtown. I've always wanted to look around there for like the last 4 years but have never really made it. I want to go to a shop that Barnes went to b/c she made a sweet bracelet there.
Oh, and on Friday, Heather (my big) is coming up from Atlanta, and we'll be going to BFE I guess. We probably won't get there until midnight b/c of the time she arrives in the airport. So if you're reading this then....you need to be there. I don't want it to be a lame ass time.
Actually, I kind of like working at the Dean's office. As much as I hate waking up to be here at 8am...it has some benefits. Every once in a while some professor will come in here and talk to me about stuff and give me some good advice....the one's that are actually nice.
Alright, sweet....there's like another half an hour gone. Time to read this stupid Transitions book about a dead dog.

Ugh...
...Bender, don't beat yourself up over your brother's actions. Even if you were at home, there would not be too much that you could do. Help your Mom by continuing to help yourself.Also, there's a really cute boutique in the Amway Grand on the second level!
