How long is too long to be angry with a family member?  I want to be angry for an extended period of time - say until they stop - because its not one incident, its a series of incidents.  Is it worth being angry if nothing is going to change, if the person isn't going to alter their behavior?  If it were a friend they would be kicked to the curb.  Hasta.  But, it's not, its family.  I have to take the higher ground, not hold the grudge, just accept them for who they are.  I'm habitually late - they're habitually selfish.  Get over it.  I wonder when it won't piss me off.
