self‑absorbed brat
Jul. 16th, 2004 05:48 amI did actually tell my mom, like I said I was going to. her response? “That’s what I thought.”
ever think of saying something? demonstrating in some way—any way!—that my well‑being is at all important to you? or even a point of interest?
I got more interest from passing strangers when I walked to the store earlier than I get from my family. I have never been so close to just saying “fuck it” as I was when I realized that.
you know what I want more than anything—anything—in the world? a hug, from someone who just felt like giving me a hug. not a perfunctory hug because it’s expected; not a hug to humor the depressed shit kid. just a hug from someone who cares.

I visited Seattle once. Cool place, although I didn't see much of it. The drive from Portland up was so beautiful.

Okay, I'll shut up now.
