Everyone keeps asking me to suck it up for one person or another. Dad's depressed- why can't I just come out and eat dinner and watch a movie? Never mind that I feel like a fat lump with limbs and the thought of eating makes me want to cry. Mom's depressed- why can't I just help her finish decorating the tree? Never mind that she's pissed that everyone else took off and is therefore, logically, taking it out on the people who actually stayed behind. Or that none of the rest of us think there's another fucking branch that can hold an ornament, anyway.

There's a "make dad feel better" movement and a "make mom feel better" movement, but no one seems to give a fuck that I am actually OFF MY FUCKING MEDS and my BRAIN IS SCREWED UP and every ten minutes I get this horrible urge to curl up in a ball in some dark corner and cry for three days. No, when someone has a problem that they can't fix on their own, it's only rational that everyone lean on them the most for emotional support.

Fuck this. Christmas is a gimmick, and there's a reason that more people commit suicide during the holidays than any other time of year.

fuck. fuck fuck fuck. fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

Fuck EVERYTHING.

I fucking hate everyone who thinks a camera phone gives them the right to record people's lives and flaunt them to people they shouldn't be flaunted to.

I like people, okay? They make me feel better. Calmer. Like the ridiculous pressure inside me is bowing me outward, splitting me apart, and people put tape over the cracks. Levi is the only one who found a way to pick up a bottle of glue and fix them even semi-permanently.

But people in general still help.

So a couple nights ago when I was "cuddling" (for lack of a better word) with Wes and Nick at a party at Pat's house, it was purely platonic. In fact, I actually told them that it was just a comfort thing, a friend thing. Plus, I had been talking about Levi all night- I missed him, I was worried about him, I was excited about our six-month anniversary on Saturday, I loved him, I'm gonna marry him.

Someone at that fucking party decided that wasn't okay. They took pictures of me and Wes- who, by the way, was barely even touching me; his hand was on my side, and that was it-, and showed them to Levi.

He was on his way to buy me a promise ring.

Instead, we got into a major fight, and I'm not sure things have been entirely the same since.

He left his wallet at the Starbucks where he saw the pictures, and someone stole the $300 he had set aside for the ring. Now, he doesn't have the money for it, and he's not sure how much longer the store can hold it.

This is what I've wanted. I know it's just a thing, just a bit of metal, but I wanted it so much- to show everyone that this is real, and that it's gonna last. And now, because of a stupid thing I did without ever thinking it could possibly hurt anyone, I'm not going to get it.

So fuck people who butt in where they don't belong and aren't wanted. I didn't do anything wrong.

a quote from Echo

"There's no one worth our time here," she'd say, draining her drink, and we'd leave the maraschino-poison-cherry-red vinyl booth and the walls hung with dead movie stars, our pockets stuffed with the crispy fried noodles and fortune cookies they served. Sometimes we'd go to a fast-food Mexican place, like I used to do as a kid, eat burritos in Valentine's smoky Studebaker Lark with the streetlights buzzing and glazing everything in a greenish-white. Or the late-night Italian joint where she would peel the netting off of the red glass candle and slip it over her bare calf like a stocking. We'd drop crumpled fortunes on guys' plates on the way out and laugh; none of them were our love-boys.


i have fiction words in my ears...

Her mother seared scripture into her brain, called her a liar and a whore and laughed when she tried to hide her star-gazer lily eyes filling up with tears.

Later that night on the phone she asked me if I thought she still had a soul, or did she leave it somewhere like those Dumpster babies you read about and did I think it was still crying for her, the mama it never knew?

I was speechless. Her soul was my fire- light and warmth and hope. Her soul sent away the shadows under my eyes. I wanted to tell her but the static on the line stole my voice and she took my silence for "no".

I think maybe when you stop believing you have a soul, it becomes easier to drown it in vodka and tears. I know she managed it.

It's been a long fucking time.

I came back because I want a place where I can just write what I think, and not make it a bulletin or a mini-blog thing on my myspace.

Whatever.

I have to get used to all this new stuff, though...
