This is only a facade

Today my mom wasn’t home, so my eight year old sister asked me to set some words for her so she could write her daily sentences. I knew she did them every day, but I’ve never bothered to read them before.

My sister is a lot of things. She’s extremely smart, fairly quiet, and absolutely hilarious. But today I learned two new things about her:

a) my sister does not have a way with the written word

b) my sister is addicted to crack cocaine

I don’t know what the fuck she’s smoking but I want in on it sweet baby jesus I did not know what to do with myself while I was reading some of these

what is wrong with her

I don’t even understand what some of these mean

(things you should know: I am natalie, and her “silkys” are two little silk & velveteen blankets she’s slept with since she was born.)

Setting: Family dinner table, Christmas Eve.

Characters: Me, my then 5 year old sister.

So there we are, quietly coloring in her Hello Kitty coloring book. I liked drawing with her in the evenings, because it got her out from in front of the TV and because I could subtly impart my wisdom on her (read: freak her the hell out). The TV’s off, my parents are outside, the room is completely silent.

Sister: I had a dream about you last night.

I put down my crayon. “Oh, yeah? What happened?”

She puts her crayon down and stares deep into my soul.

“Santa cut your head off.”

WHAT.

Why is Snoddy running face first into the wall?

LOL! In the hundreds of time that I’ve watched the movie, I’ve never noticed this!

Extremely powerful PSA shown to us in our Womens Studies class.

All of the times as he was pushing me around, put his hands on my throat, shouting at me and calling me all kind of horrible things, or not letting me leave our apartment…did anyone hear? Were all the other people in our apartment complex doing this?

Don’t stay silent! Never ever stay silent. All you have to do is call 911. That’s it. You don’t even have to put yourself in harm’s way!! But by doing so, you can save a life. You could have helped me.
