I'm so Mad Right Now or I was Having Fun
I'm very angry at the moment and I'm not 100% sure if I should be. I went to see "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" at Grant Park with Jay, Karrie, and Lee. The film was awesome, by the way, totally original and fun, with lots of emotion. After that, we got some ice cream and decided to stop by my place to grab Futurama to watch. In saying to my parents that I was just stopping by and on my way out, they totally flipped. "You haven't eaten supper, you have to work tomorrow, you have mono, you'll relapse, the clocks go ahead an hour, you won't get any sleep, you are too sick, etc." It was an endless nag. Then they said that I couldn't go to work tomorrow if I went out now and they would phone in sick if I did. I ended up just getting the things I promised to lend Karrie and passing them on to the guys. I just told them that my parents were being dicks and I won't be coming along. It was easier than giving the whole spiel I got. In a way my parents are right, I mean I shouldn't push it so soon after being so sick. On the other hand, it's my life and my body. If I think that I can do it, then they should respect that and let it be. I am the one who would have to deal with something if it happened not them. That is the way of my life though. My parents like to insert themselves into areas where they should no longer have a say. I am a 24 year old person and I still feel like a freakin' high school student. I'll never really "grow up" until I get out of the house... it's a stagnating experience...
