Tadaa! Here I am. <i>Blogging!</i><br />
<i><br /></i><br />
Of course, secretly (or not-so-secretly, since I just admitted it) this is beginning as a way to deal with stress a la Watson's blog from the popular BBC series Sherlock.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<br />
<br />
So, why am I stressed? I may as well tell you (why not? <sarcasm>It's not like the internet will just me<sarcasm>). Lately, my family has made arguing into an art. Well, I say art - what I really mean is art in the way that a post-modernist toilet is art.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

My father and my brother have been arguing for months. Ever since my brother finished his GCSEs and bought StarCraft, they've been, metaphorically, trying to kill each other. With words, I mean. My brother likes games and is a follower of this thing he calls 'e-sport' (to you and I, that means competitive gaming) and this causes trouble when my brother refuses to do anything but play this game; my dad doesn't like that and then... then it goes to hell.<br />
<br />
*Sigh*<br />

I don't even know what I'm doing. I am likely to regret this later.<br />
<br />
So, it was either write this blog or go to a friends house - I'm short of friends though. The one friend I have a number for is busy, the other - on twitter - doesn't know how to react (I don't blame her) and the rest... How can I justify disturbing them? They don't know me that well or they have their own problems.<br />
<br />
Fuck, this is long already.<br />
<br />
IntroGeek isn't 'introduction to the geek' - it's a portmanteau of the words 'introvert' and 'geek'.<br />

(5 MINUTES HAS GONE SINCE I WROTE THAT LAST BIT, BY THE WAY) My mum is almost in tears and she's just decided to drop a metaphorical bomb. She says that if things don't get better really soon she is going to rent an apartment and get some of us to move out. I don't know who that some of us is.<br />

This is one of those times that I could do with a friend whose parents won't mind me couch surfing.<br />
<br />
Maybe I can sleep at school. Yeah, right.<br />

(Actually, I don't. I don't want more blogs like this to be necessary. I want this - this thing going on now - to END.)<br />
