I never believed that my family was normal.

It probably helped that whenever I got to watch TV, it was always an older shows with old family values. My family has the values down, but nothing else.

The people on TV are normal, just regular human beings who live on the planet earth. Their problems are so different from other peoples, too. Like…if someone wants to tear down the town, or take down a beloved tree, all you need is a half hour to convince them not to.

Did that make any sense?

What I'm basically trying to say is that the 'normal' families that I was aware of were nothing like mine. All of our big problems took anywhere from months to years to solve - not 30 minutes.

None of this really matters though…

I basically wanted to say that I didn't come from a normal family… In my family, its okay to fight, and get stronger and be hidden in the mountains. In my family, its perfectly fine to believe in aliens (it helps being one).

In my family, I'm the most responsible.

That came out of nowhere, didn't it?

It's kind of true though - I'm not saying my parents aren't responsible but…

My mom is responsible for young people. She's good at nurturing and tending the cuts and scrapes, what she isn't to good at is taking care of a teenager. It took me forever to convince her, now that I'm eighteen, to change my curfew to nine - and that was only with the promise that I was doing homework.

My dad, when he was alive was responsible for the world in his friends, and if he wasn't, we'd all be dead now, so I'm not against that one bit…except, he's really not that responsible for his family. Before he died, I mean. I don't know…maybe it was because everything happened to him so young.

Someone tried to explain it to me, but I don't remember who it was, and they said that my dad was, in a sense, a business mind. He wasn't good with numbers, or anything like that, no, but what he was good at was fighting and saving people. That was his 'job'. They said that he was basically shaping me, yet unaware of it.

I remember something about my mom being said here. They said she was shaping me and was aware of it. I knew this already.

I don't know what any of this means…I just needed to say it. My family is not normal, and I think I'm the son of maniacs.
