you never gave it a chance

so i spent today babysitting, which would have been much better if my stepfather hadn't gotten very ill. he started bleeding badly during his colonoscopy and they stopped because they found too many polyps to count. Pa is only getting sicker and there's nothing anyone can do about it. My brothers don't understand and they spent all day whining about how bored they were and fighting.

I also had to explain to my brothers why Greg and I broke up. I have a good idea of what happened. This is my blog. Sometimes, when I get angry, I vent in here. I would hope that people would know the difference between temporary problems and something more permanent. For example, if I were to complain about specific conditions and/or relationships over a long period of time and in the same manner for the entire time, it wouldbe safe to assume that I am unhappy. However, if I say something once about how I am dissatisfied with one aspect of a conditition/relationship and end with a "what is the point?"-style rhetorical question, it is safe to assume that I am temporarily upset and that it will all blow over in a day or two. I'm pretty sure some people don't understand that.
