My sister pulled a "mom" last night. On my niece, not on me, but I got a distressed phone call from my niece last night and I haven't slept very well. Why is it that my dad and I are the ones who are always supposed to hold everything together in this family? People resent us for it, but they keep dumping that responsibility on us at the same time. I'm amazed I've never completely imploded, although, obviously, I have burnt out now and again.
Anyway, my sister pulled this last night and my niece is leaving for Malaysia tomorrow. Brilliant timing, no? I have to check up on my niece later and make sure she's ok. What the fuck is wrong with people?

Wishing your neice all the best. Malaysia? Good for her!
ReplyDeleteI hope she has a safe trip.
ReplyDelete(And unfortunately, the timing makes it sounds like that's learned behavior on your sister's part.)
Indeed.
