in that memory i said it was before i was born so there's that

it is the same boyfriend. and yeah my dad seems more put together than my mom at least even if he's kind of a dick. although i've only remembered one thing about him so maybe he was just having a bad day that one time and he's actually fine

[windeity]

yikes.
it is possible your dad is totally cool. i really hope your dad is totally cool?
but the dead brother thing is a concern.
so...no actual house ghost?

[robitussin]

i hope so too

yeah. metaphorical house ghost?? which is somehow way worse. jesus.

[windeity]

how do you even get rid of something like that?

[robitussin]

therapy?

[windeity]

i am guessing that is a thing your family wasn't up for though.

[robitussin]

i remember my dad mentioning my mom's treatment

which probably explains a lot in hindsight

[windeity]

so your mom was kind of crazy because of a dead sibling.
a few things make sense now, yes.
...sorry.
but you don't remember treatment for what?

[robitussin]

not your fault

idk what exactly it was but my dad said she was getting treatment three times a week so presumably it was for that

[windeity]

apparently three times a week was not enough if that's what happened.
but your mom HERE is fine, right? all of that is fine.

[robitussin]

yeah

but that kinda makes it weirder in a way, you know?

[windeity]

how so? in a "what changed" kind of way? or a "when is the other shoe going to drop" kind of way?

[robitussin]

like

idk if it was more familiar i would know how to deal with it? not that i can really deal with it because it wasn't about me. and not that i want that kind of thing to be familiar? idk

maybe i'm not making sense

[windeity]

...no i think i kind of get it.
you know these are things you dealt with once and so it's like "maybe i should know what i'm doing if that person really is me" but at the same time since it is not you you're lost.
but you get stuck remembering this stuff anyway.
right?

[robitussin]

yeah.

also her coping methods probably sucked based on the weed apple so there's also that which also doesnt help

[windeity]

i am pretty sure that was not her only coping method natalie, come on.

[robitussin]

yeah but it doesn't really speak well to the rest of them

[windeity]

i think that's fine though.
we don't know what the rest of them are.
but if you are the same there as you are here, you are probably insanely motivated and less likely to be a pothead full time.

[robitussin]

i don't want to be the same here as i was there though

i would rather there be many differences

[windeity]

right and i get that but do you not remember that you are the one who told me you remembered a memory of you being awake at 4am doing your homework?
i am pretty sure you two were similar that way at least.

[robitussin]

it's been ages since i've stayed up that late for homework

[windeity]

ok what qualifies as "ages" for natalie goodman? i really need to know.

[robitussin]

like

a week or two idk

[windeity]

ok so. you know my point still stands right?
that is not ages, come on.
you can at least admit that part is the same.
it is not a bad thing.

[robitussin]

that is totally ages. this is the hill i will die on
