Well my trip back to PA. was....interesting, a bit strange, but interesting. It was the first time i've been back since highschool. My grandmothers birthday party was in the church (yes, I the great satan was in a church and didn't burn to a crisp) I can still remember my mom having to take me out side to spank me. Even at three and four years old I could stir things up. I would lay in the isle and ask if the pastor was god....no thats not god, I would ask when god was going to show up
and kept pushing till I got the piss beat out of me...at least till the next sunday. Anyway back to the party. I knew I was the black sheep of my family befor I walked through the door. It dosen't bother me, I get off on being different, but my tattoos and labrat ring were total non issues. I think it was a comination of everyone being happy to see me after twelve years, and it was my grandmothers 90th birthday. My grandmother has a bad knee and has to use a cane, but other than that she is still very mentaly sharp.
The bigest shock was me and my sister spoke to our father. He has never shown any emotion at all as long as I have known him (or not known him). He spent the whole afternoon with tears in his eyes. Maybe its time for both of us to stop our stubborn bullshit hatred, and move on, leaving the past in the past. He told me I should keep in touch, I guess I'll write him a letter and see how that gos. It still makes me mad that my sister has always tried to reach out to him and NEVER gotten any responce, me, I don't give a shit, I just walk through the door and its like the fucking golden boy has returned. Maybe I can be the one to bridge the gap between him and my sister....only one way to find out.
I went into the party thinking I was related to everyone there. I did see a very pretty girl around 23-24 years old who I didn't know. Well I guess she was totaly smiten with me and ran around finding out who I was. As it turned out she and I weren't related. My dad was even tring to to hook us up, he said she was all wild (just my speed
) We talked for a little while, to bad I was leaving the state in a few hours. I think I'll send her a invitation to come spend some time at the beach, we will see how wild and adventurous she really is
All in all a good time. 14 hours spent there sandwiched between 11 hour road trips.....now back to work
