Part Deux: The sibling from Hell
Friday, October 19, 2007
My sister and I left at 6am from McAllen to Houston. It wasn't that long of a drive since my niece was asleep. My sister and I were getting along pretty good at first, but I knew it wouldn't last. we were two hours away from Houston when my sister fell asleep. I started to get sleepy and started to eat ice in order to stay awake. There were slow cars in front of me going 60mph and I decided to pass them. In order to pass them I went above 80, and I was planning to slow down once I was in front of them. Then, I got stopped. A DPS trooper stopped me and told me I was going 85. He asked if I had a medical emergency and I used my mom as an excuse, but of course, I got the ticket anyway cause the guy was an asshole. I don't really care about the ticket, but from that point on, it was arguments with my sister. Stupid little arguments that would cause me headache after headache. It was good seeing my mom that day. She was scheduled for surgery at 1pm and we made it just in time to see her for a good hour. When she had the surgery, it was a long wait. Eventually, the doctor came to talk to us in the waiting room. He basically told us that the infection was going away. My mom will be going to a nursing facility for 5 weeks and then another surgery will be scheduled in which they will rebuild her tendon on her knee so she can bend her knee again. It all depends if the infection goes away for good though. We were there until 9pm, then had to leave to my uncle's apartment since it was still 30 minutes away. At the hospital, my sister was always screaming at my niece, my niece was always running around like crazy, and you could tell my parents were getting frustrated. It's not so much that my niece is annoying, but my sister makes it annoying. My sister never stops screaming at her, never stops hitting her, or nagging at her. And it's not like a spanking like I believe some children should get, its more of an abuse. She hits her in the mouth because she won't listen to her, she grabs a hold of my niece's arms or legs and squeezes them until it hurts her. It is just annoying seeing my sister hit her constantly. Anyway, more arguments between my sister and I follow and we call it a night at my uncle's apartment.

We woke up at 8am and got ready to go see my mom again. Arguments started since that morning and continued throughout the day. My sister just likes screaming orders at me as if I am her son or something. She always treats me like a kid and I have been having so much patience with her, and not wanting to cause trouble. I think I've had enough though, I know I am going to blow up soon and tell her off or something. Anyway, she wanted me to put all of our luggage back in my car and I told her it was stupid since we were coming back that same night. Anyway, we went to see my mom and once again, it was full of drama and tension. My dad was pissed off cause my sister is loud and obnoxious and he just wanted me to take her home. Later in the afternoon, the doctor came to change my mom's bandages, and to show her the status of the leg. We all gathered around the hospital bed to see the leg, and it was awful. The leg looks worse now because of all the surgeries. My mom got all depressed after seeing her leg, she wanted to cry and we were trying to be supportive. We were telling her that it only looks like that because it's swollen and that the doctor has told us that the infection was almost gone. Eventually my mom kind of got over it and we went back to fighting or arguing. My mom then started to argue with my sister about her hitting my niece too much and then my mom and dad got in an argument, and everything was chaotic. We left the hospital at 7pm that day, and well, I hated this trip so much I just decided to forget everything that happened, therefore I shall stop about this day.

We woke up early again and said our goodbyes. My dad said that my car needed a tire change or something so he told me to leave my car there in houston and to bring his car over here. So my dad and I changed all the luggage from my car to his car and from his car to my car. Well my sister was there nagging that we probably didnt do it right and we started arguing again. So I decided to leave at 1pm from houston so we could get to McAllen early. Well 2 hours away from Houston, we find out that my sister left her keys in my car, and of course, she blamed it on me for not switching them out to my dad's car. I asked her where she had put them in my car cause I had not seen them. She basically put them in a corner which I never even think of looking at. Anyway for the next 2 hours of the ride home she is there complaining to me, screaming at her daughter, and hitting her. Anyway, my uncle is going to mail her keys over she is using my dad's car and I am using my dad's truck. When we got to Falfurias we got in another argument. I had stopped by the store to get pumpkin seeds but I couldn't find any, so I bought cigarrettes for myself and chocolate for my niece. Well on the way out of the store, I had put my cigarrets in my pocket and was carrying the chocolate in my hand. My sister saw the chocolate and started screaming at me. Telling me that how could I buy a chocolate for myself and nothing for my niece. So I started arguing with her telling her that the chocolate was for my niece and not for me. Ugh! I was so frustrated when I got home. I just got home, unloaded all the bags, and went to Roxie's house to vent.
Overall I hated this fucking trip. I hate being with my sister. I don't want to live with my sister. She is a fucking pain. I want to report her to the police for hitting my niece so much. I wish I could do something about it. I hate it how she thinks she is the boss of me just because she is older. Whatever, that was the last time I take her to Houston with me.
