March Prompt #4

4. Do you have a negative memory of an event which other people found positive or exciting? Or vice versa, a positive memory of an event which other people found negative?

I have sat and read and re-read this prompt for a couple hours now LoL....thinking and thinking of just WHAT exactly it is asking...so my crazy mind came up with this experience that I think fits what the prompt is asking about!~So here it goes....

When I was 8 years old my parents divorced....I do not remember the first 8 years of my life but I remember this for sure. My dad came busting into my room where I was coloring and announced "Your mother and I are divorcing and we are doing it NOW"....then he stormed back out of my room...I remember sitting there thinking...."Bout F&%!#ing time" I mean good grief...all I can remember is thinking that FINALLY things were going to change....I can't remember WHY I was so excited about this considering I can't flipping remember from THAT point back...but I just remember while everyone else was somber and crying about it, I was happily packing and playing in boxes. I was not scared to move out, Mom and I moved to my grandparents house for about a year or so before we moved out on our own and I was then raised by her, brainwashing me, moving from apartment to apartment....I was a latch key kid at 10....ugh..that my friends is a whole other story haha

Anyway....That is the moment I remember that fits this prompt the best....as sick as it sounds I guess...I know my mom was all upset and everything but inside, secretly, I was just so beyond freaking relieved that I couldn't help it. I guess I was just so over whatever had happened up to that point that divorce was the best Christmas present I ever got that year!!

I know, I know....I am totally whacko..but it's ok...my doctor knows Bahaha!!~
