Worth saying.

I’ve said it before and I’l say it again. If you are my family you get to ask me to pick you over other people because that is what family means to me. I believe in taking sides. I believe that is what actually loving someone means.

And it is only for family that I will deal with feeling so frustrated and still actually talk to the person I am angry with. Just sayin. Chosen family means I choose you. No buts. No except for.

Ya’ll still piss me the fuck off sometimes.

    If this is directed at me- I’m really, really sorry. But, well, Jennifer is very much family, and this is a bit of an emergency. How ’bout I promise to take you out to dinner sometime next week?

    I also don’t know if that was directed at me, but I’m not intending to bring the additional folks from my dinner plan by, btw. It was tabled with a “area needs confirmation/clarification with other party” designation.

      Well, it wasn’t written about you specifically. But maybe it is for the best if those folks don’t come by. I’m getting real tired of having to be the one to play nice.

        Still frankly haven’t the foggiest clue about what it *is* about, specifically, even if I’m familiar with the feeling generally. (And I don’t need to know, of course.) But neither those folks nor B&I will be making it there tonight — I was hoping I’d be energized by finishing up one of my things today, but instead I’m exhausted and trying to figure out how to make it through the second one, tomorrow. Sorry to miss you, sorry to miss the event, had we not already had plans, etc.

    Yay…a post that I know isn’t specifically directed at me! Well, certainly not for anything I’ve done recently.

    This is generally good information to know about you, actually.

    Thanks for being a person who loves this much. I haven’t often had that kind of fierce love in my past. You’ll forgive me if I forget sometimes?
