I guess I need to explain myself -

I've had a lot of things going on in real life. My dad's been diagnosed with cancer again and is having to do chemotherapy again (2nd time), and my mom is having her own surgery. We keep having to borrow money from friends and relatives to pay for everything that's been going on. My old car's transmission broke down, so I had to get a new one, which has been about the only good news lately. After that, a small chunk of the ceiling in my brother's room fell down, so we had to get the entire air conditioning unit and vents replaced.

I just came back from a one-day trip to Louisiana, which was something I was really looking forward to. I went over to Baton Rouge to spend the night in a hotel with my aunt, who came from San Antonio, TX, to spend some time with my parents while they go through their operations. Well, my cousin decided to come along on the trip, so when I got there everything was fine - we had a nice lunch, went to the hotel and hung out for a while. We decided to go to the mall because he wanted to go to a game store, but when we were finally walking up to the game store he said, "I don't want to go in there, let's just go back to the hotel." Anyway, long story short, the next morning something happened between my aunt and cousin where they were mad at each other. My aunt decided to send him back to San Antonio on a bus, and my cousin was being stubborn and just wanted to stay in the hotel (which wouldn't happen because the people were about to go in and clean it). So we got to the bus station and found out there was a bus leaving that moment. I tried to get him to hurry up and he told me to go f*** myself. We finally got him on the bus, and that was the end of that.

So my one chance to relax was dented by my cousin being an ass, we finally get home. We decided to celebrate my brother's birthday (which is really tomorrow), so I decided to give him his gift from me - a used copy of Left 4 Dead on the Xbox 360. Well...the CD was damaged. I went looking for the receipt so I could take it back and get another copy, and found out that my mom had accidentally shredded it. Luckily today we were able to go to the store and they didn't have a problem exchanging it, but last night...

Last night I just felt horrible. Yes, I had Zephyr on TEF earlier, and everyone was nice and had fun with her. I decided to switch to Quad, but I remembered that luchador mask and wanted him to wear it. So I got back in the Forest as Quad and went to greet my friends...and one after another, the first thing everyone did when they saw him was tilt their heads. I just wanted to get away from all of the drama of my real life, and instead I felt like I just wasn't accepted. That's why Quad lowered his head and walked away.

Anyway, don't worry about me or my life. I don't want to spew more drama on this community - it's just been one thing after another here.
