I learned a few things about my family this weekend that suprised me. First I relized that my grandparents (the ones on my dad's side cause thats all I have left) probably couldnt give a rats a** about me they fuss about my younger cousin Johnathan. My grandparents bought him a cell phone and pay the cell bill, if he needs anything they give it to him. I'm in marching band and work my a** off all the time for what I have and how my band does and my grandparents could careless, but oh look Johnathan is in band and OMFG his band is so ******** amazing and he is the best drummer ever. So do me and my school band being 3rd in the nation mean anything? No guess not. scream They give him everything he could ******** want and I dont even get a call saying Happy Birthday. I guess I've always known they care more for Johnathan then me but it's never really sunk in and now that it has it hurts to know that now for almost 16 years to my grandparents I've been pretty much just some other kid they know. The other thing I learned this weekend isn't something hurtfull just suprising. I was talking to my mom last night after watching the superbowl and I was teasing her about her job, she works with people who are drug users and trys to help them get clean. So I was in there joking around when suddenly my mom stops just joking around and tells me that I have done two major things with out knowing i did them. One I saved my parents marriage and two I saved my mom's life. According to what she said last night she was a pretty heavy drug user and she doubts that with out getting pregnant she would still be alive much less married with six kids.
