Raging on the inside – keeping it inside
It always seems like I am totally NOT understood. Today has been a bad day. I have been hoping for some understanding from those who love me most, but what I get is anger, revulsion, and I am shunned for being angry and sad myself.
As I type this, I am sitting at Mama’s house. Our electricity got disconnected yesterday while I was attempting to fix a friend’s computer. Nanny was making noises like she would pay it for us, but all she has said today was how expensive her cable bill is, because she pays by the year. I don’t care.
I don’t care, and that’s NOT OK with anyone but me.
I just don’t care anymore. It’s too difficult to live my life the way anyone else wants me to live it. I had made such great strides while I lived in Waco. I even started back into the workforce, which was a major catastrophe, but also a big mistake to share with the family. Now that they know I had one, no matter how badly it turned out, they expect me to immediately face my fucking phobia and go out and get another job again. I picked up and filled out an application to be a substitute teacher again today. The app is down at Martha’s office, because our dumb asses left it there. It really shouldn’t hurt, though, because I can’t do anything with it until tomorrow anyway.
Now, we’re faced with several dilemnas in one.
1)
Johnny told me I was not to be in contact with Mama when I feel the way I do. About that I don’t have a choice (except to stay all by myself in a dark fucking house all night) because Mama and Mikey decided we’d spend another night here at Mama’s. It so happens I am angry at my mother right now, but ask if anybody cares….ha! As if they EVER DO!!!!!
2)
Now the spouse is all upset because I am hurt by what happens with my mother because of my step-father. It’s ridiculous that we should have to sneak around this way. I’m not dating her! She’s my MOTHER!!!!! Is it really so bad….no, goddamnit…am I really that bad….that I can’t even visit my own mother?
3)
We’re not going to be able to make the house payment or the rent this month. One or the other. I don’t know what we will or what we won’t pay. No bills again, as is becoming the fucking custom, and I resent the FUCK out of that. Again, ask if that matters? Nope, because Mary Helen, goddess of the world, doesn’t have a problem with US doing without. As long as she and HER family are taken care of, my family and I can burn in hell for all she cares.
Well, fuck you, too, lady!
I’m tired.
Tired of everything.
Everybody who reads this…I need help. Offer any words, good or bad. I don’t think anything could offend me or hurt me worse than I am offended and hurt right now.
Go for it.
O
Whew…wish I had some words to offer up, but I’m just not that good with them. Sounds like you’re in a helluva spot! Someone once told me, “You never need do anything you do not need to do.” I’m not sure if it makes any sense, really, but it worked for me. Remember to take care of yourself. Be well.
