you know what really grinds my gears?

ugh. i'm so sick of living at home with my parents. there are some major reasons for that but the little things are what are really getting to me for some reason. and it's mainly my mother. 

  1. you know i go to 11 o'clock service on sunday. why would you get up like right before 10 and take a shower or probably bath (i don't know what you were doing in there) knowing we have slight drainage issues? further, why would you do that with plans to go NOWHERE? yes, i share a bathroom with my mother because she and my dad don't sleep in the same bedroom. another issue but whatever...
  2. i'm on a certain diet called "eating to stay alive" and i buy some of my own groceries. i can't get into why there's no food hardly ever in the house but i will say another reason i buy my own stuff is i do south beach sometimes, when im not being lazy and fat. so ANYWAY. if i buy bottled water to take to school/work what makes you think you need to sit at home all day drinking it instead of just getting water from the 'fridge???
  3. also, what happened to the walnuts i bought? those things are not cheap. further, how you gonna buy another pack in a SMALLER size than i originally bought?
  4. so you're not even going to ask if i wanna see the macy's circular before putting it in the recycle bin?
  5. if i parked my car already, why do you need to come out and re-park it? also, in order to do that, did you really need to adjust ALL my settings? mirrors all f*cked up and seat all up in the steering wheel. also, i swore i had more gas than this...
  6. if you are home all week, why do i need to compete with you to wash clothes on the weekends? i should only have to really compete with dad...
oh well, happy birthday.

Oh my goodness. Take every single one of those and replace mom with dad and you have my at home experience. Come all the way downstairs when there are 2 bathrooms upstairs to funk up mine when you know I have to be at church by 9! Ughhhhhh. Eat all my special food that I bought for the fast that you are participating in. Uggghhhhh! Glad I'm out of there ;)

And happy birthday to your mom!

@ theraputic musings, that's HILARIOUS!

@ antithesis, for #5, this used to cook my grits. I drove a cavalier and my stepfather used to just move my car as he saw fit and he's a big 6'3, 250/260 dude. Seat all the way back, steering wheel just wrong. I used to hate it. In my parents defense, I would also hate when they asked me to come move my car so they could park. I was just mean. LOL!

LOL no seriously this post had me laughing so hard Antithesis. Well the good thing is that you seem to have a a good relationship with your parents and you know they love you so thats the good part. On the other hand..LOL on all of the things you listed. Don't worry, there will come a time when you will look back on this and just laugh it all off...
Have a great great weekend.
