To elaborate on the LJ issue: I posted that for Christmas my dad got me "a shitload of crap". I meant it as "SO MUCH STUFF OMG, like a box full of presents!!" but he found it and took it (quite understandably!) as "a lot of things that suck."

The Conley AMABs did not communicate well, and I think this is one of the things that contributed to us being estranged. (There are many other/larger things, but that sticks out to me)
