11rd in Hey, buddy, got a light?

Jake’s gone.
He left yesterday and I didn’t even know, completely forgot he started on the 11th.
He didn’t say good bye. Mom said it’s because he was getting choked up enough saying good bye to them, in any case, I don’t blame him.
Every year since he’s graduated from -, well, for a long time, I’ve been wanting to tell him I’m sorry. To say ‘Man, I’m proud of you for making something of yourself in spite of having a loser ass do-nothing for a brother. You really went above and beyond from getting yelled at by a moody asshole teenager, to a motivated, strong young man that people often mistake for being the older brother’.
I’m sick, because hahaha we just all had to get fucking flu shots to appease my lovely ‘I am so fucking rich now and am not taking any chances with my child, excuse you’, sister.
Thanks for that, George.
