Well, I saw my sister yesterday, at one of our annual family reunions, the first time in ages, well.... Christmas last. I don't understand her. She acts like everything is against her, then ignores the rest of us as if we don't matter. She has had a very hard life, but it wasn't anything we did, she got herself in alot of the mess she's in. Years ago, we tried to help her, invited her over several times, but she never would come or call. Then she would just fall off the face of the earth and not tell anyone where she'd moved to. We finally gave up on her, my brother knows exactly how I feel, he sometimes feels the same way cause she does the same crap to him. The only time she shows up or calls is when it's Christmas time and she expects food, money, and to get stuff. Oh, and get this, she has told our mom that she will be bringing her boyfriend to Christmas dinner...not ASKED mom if it would be okay, she just said she's bringing him....WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!? So why do I get so aggravated??? Is it only a material relationship, where family doesn't matter unless they are giving her something? Does she really have no manners or consideration whatsoever!?!?!?!? I'm just a little peeved, so the evil in me is trying to come out.

Makes me want to go out for dinner instead....hmmmmmm.....
