#i reeeeeeeally shouldn’t be bothered by this#but y’know#it fuckin hurts when people somehow manage to ignore you right to your face#so dad’s mother died last week while I was away#I was never close to her and she had gotten so sick that it wasn’t a surprise#she knew she wasn’t getting better and was telling dad every day how she was ready to die in fact she wanted to die#dad already made it clear that they weren’t having a funeral and that he didn’t want me to come home early#so I wasn’t really bothered by it and dad’s frankly too fuckin happy about it#when she first got sick a month ago he called me sobbing about how much of a burden she was#and how ‘she’s so selfish for not dying’#I know we weren’t close but I couldn’t believe he actually said that#and frankly she was trying to die in the only way she could#what did he want her to do? cut her wrists open? how the fuck do you say shit like that?#believe me he’s thrilled she’s gone#especially once he realized how much money she had left which is all his now#so anyway#he and I work in the same building and everyone knows we’re related#hell my boss approved my bereavement leave#so how trashy is it that everyone signed a sympathy card for him#and couldn’t even be bothered to put my name on it#like#I’m fucking sitting right here#she was still my grandmother#you’re gonna do that shit right in front of me#if they only knew how he felt about her#and the horrible things he’s said#and naturally since I can’t keep myself from spiraling at the stupidest shit#I really am completely invisible#personal
