Day 7 Journal:
I left for Bozeman 6am
and realized that I had forgotten my wallet in the jeep. I felt like an idiot
and had to turn around. No fun. I wanted to order a tire for my bike today, but
I guess that will have to wait. I do have time… no rush there.
When I got back I was a
little annoyed, no one had anything to talk about except where I was. Like it
really matters? My family needs drama to thrive I suppose. Makes me like them
less though.
On a happy (VERY HAPPY)
note, the girl FaceTime’d with me this morning… just after waking up. For my
money she never gets any more beautiful than how she looks first thing in the
morning. Very naturally beautiful. I really miss her. We talked about my trip
so far… got lost in each others eyes. I made her cry when I told her that I
ordered her a cake online… I was going to keep it a secret, so she could be
surprised… but I can’t keep stuff from her. I just love that girl… she is going
to be impossible to get over. So I suppose the only thing to do is move forward
and try to be the best man I can be… Full of love in my heart today for her.
We resolved the gun issue,
Grandma thought my ex's sons got a gun jammed, but it turns out it was
my brother's gun from a long time ago that has a magazine bolted in… apparently no
one could figure out how to unbolt it so they sent it to get repaired. My
family is a bunch of assholes sometimes.
My step mom has been rude to dad
the entire trip, I am getting sick of it. Every few minutes she has orders. I
really can’t stand her. They don’t watch their daughter either, I am left
babysitting because my 1/2 sister gets bored and needs attention. I feel bad for her,
since her parents basically ignore her.
My sister walked with me this
evening, about a mile and a half, then we hiked to lookout point for about 10
minutes. I thought it was a mighty climb, until I saw a 7 year old do it. Funny
how perceptions change.
Dad and I had a good talk
tonight about politics and business. Nothing new for either of us, but nice to
connect all the same.
On a side note as I go to
bed, I wrote 9200 words today… about 25 pages in my novel. All with a 7 year
old girl distracting me and being exhausted besides. Yeah, I am cool. J
