Not so good morning

Good morning, guys. I'm home sick(again) and I'm 99.99% sure it's due to stress. I've been playing peacekeeper between my parents since Dad showed up and now I'm doing the same for Mom and Mark. How this came to be my job, I don't know. Mom kind of blew up at Mark because she'd been angry at Dad for something, and he took it really hard and isn't talking to her right now. I think I can get him to stop that by the end of the day, though. Mark is often more of an adult than Dad, no joke. >_> I really can't afford to be sick this close to when we leave on our trip, I fucking hate this. I still don't think it's fair to dump all this on me and seriously expect me to fix it when I have to much on my plate already. I don't know how I'm magically supposed to fix their problems for them while also struggling with my own. I need to switch subjects or I'm just going to bitch for hours. I did a bit of shopping after work yesterday, and found some really nice clothes to take with me on our trip. It was all well and good until I ran into Mom and Craig at the same time. I didn't expect this in the least, believe me. I flashed Craig a quick smile and waved, then kind of escorted Mom away from him. To her credit, she didn't grill me about who he was and I'm grateful. I also got to talk to Jack and Mike again (alone), thankfully. I noticed something kind of funny Jack was doing while he was talking, though; he was mimicking my speech patterns and even this habit I have of looking out from under my eyelashes when I talk. I'm wondering now if he's done this before and I just didn't notice it, but I sure as hell did this time. I love that he did this, though. Supposedly that's a sign he's into me. ^_~  As if, right? Still, a girl can (and does) dream. Jack said he's really excited to be getting ready to record their new album but the guy producing it is kind of childish and it bothers him.  I kind of smiled, I couldn't help loving that he said that. Maybe I'm rubbing off on him, too? I hope so. I guess that's really it for right now. Thanks so much for reading, please keep it up.
Today's song is "Awaken" by Disturbed
