listening:: "new disease" - spineshank
My parents piss me off, but I never stay mad at them, even if I really want to. Damn my kind tendencies.
My dad took away the horns that I got at the Renaissance Festival because he thinks they're devil horns, and doesn't want them in his house. That day was also my mom's birthday, and on the way home I was thinking about making her a cake, because we had the mix, but no icing. I also have no constant source of income to buy her pretty things with. However, a couple days earlier I had earned some money from my aunt for hemming her pants, and I was planning on using the money on a new CD player, seeing as how mine had died. So, here's how mom interpreted all this: I don't care about her birthday and I care only about myself (because I wanted to go get a new CD player) and saying "happy birthday" wasn't enough. Anyway, it went on and on and on and she was just spewing these accusations at me, and then had the nerve to go and say how wonderful my brother was because at least he was trying to do something for her. That just hit something...that "don't-ever-compare-me-to-my-sibling" thing. I was pissed. And then my dad decides to throw in the towel by getting angry at me for talking back (actually, I was defending my side of the story, thanks) and making me feel like crap all over again.
Holy damn. Whenever I talk to my parents in any kind of arguement, no matter how small, I honestly can't get anywhere with them. They're so incredibly stubborn and think that everything I say is disrespectful. I'm fucking tired of it, personally, but it's a hopeless battle. Oh well, only three more years. Then I'm out. I might miss them, but I'll finally be able to dye my hair hot pink and do all kinds of crazy shit without caring. Woo.
We finally did make up, though. And my mom was mostly so psycho-angry-sad because her mom died on her birthday when [my mom] was 25, and she was sick that day.
We watched a couple movies, and one of them was Close Encounters of the Third Kind. What the hell? Has anyone else seen this movie? It is so fucking retarded. I can't believe it used to be a huge hit. It had very little plot, and the plot that it had was stupid as all the cuss words I can fit into one sentence. Stupid as fuckshitcocksuckingdamnhole. Yeah. And it also made very little sense. I only liked it in the begining because the lead guy was cool and interesting-looking, and the random this-doesn't-make-much-sense storyline kind of intruiged me because I like weird crap. And I like this one quote that the main character guy said: it was something like "Just close your eyes and hold your breath and everything will be really pretty." Told you I'm weird. Stuff like this fascinates me. In conclusion (wow, don't I sound bright), the movie was cool up until the last 20 or so minutes, which were gay as hell. And not in the good way. ^_~
