usmcsis's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- short conversation with an old friend just stopped by my parent's house on the way home from the hospital. i wanted to check on beavis since he's spending so much time alone right now, i figured he might want to play B-A-L-L or something. plus my mom has a huge bag of books for me to read. so i thought i'd do an entry while i was here. i just walked into my parents room and sat down at the computer when the phone rang and i looked at the caller id and saw that it was kelly. very weird talking to her for the second time in a year. my mom got an invitation to kelly's brother's wedding last week and she sent back the card saying that they'd like to attend but because of my dad's cancer things were kind of day to day and they didn't think they'd be able to make it. so of course as soon as kenneth read it he called kelly and told her she needed to call me asap. so she called here to try to get my number but i answered. so anyway, it was kind of a stilted conversation. he dad died of cancer almost two years ago so she knows how i feel in a way. i don't even like to say that she knows how i feel because i don't think that she does really. she wasn't close to her father at all. and all she was thinking about when he died was the fact that there wasn't an inheiretence to help her pay for her wedding. she never even cried. of course i feel like a bitch for saying that but it's true. i never felt that she loved her dad at all. she ignored him pretty much all of the time. it was like he didn't even exist in that house. no one saw him. he was the original invisible man. so she called to see how i was. i told her and her respose was, well, i'm sending you an invitation to kenneth's wedding. blah blah blah blah blah blah who cares daddy's going to be in the hospital for three months straight probably starting next month. he's got to stay for three months to get ready for, have, and recover from, the transplant attempt. needless to say he is less than thrilled about this idea. well, i'm going to go now. beavis has gotten impaitent with me and is banging me in the leg with a soggy tennis ball. did you know, "you're taillights out and you've got no knees." ciao. 7:00 pm - 22 Oct 2002 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
