Today is judgement day...

• Good song. No that’s not it’s title, but it’s still good. I like songs that are almost ridiculously long, and have a story to them. Like they tell a full on story…kinda. I still need money for iTunes… so much music needs to be added to my iPhone… it’s sad how much I listen to that isn’t on there. Oh well. It’ll happen, eventually.
• It’s good to be home, even if it is just for the weekend. I’ve missed my mom. Not so much my sisters, but I really missed my mom. And it’s nice to be able to just talk to her without her attention being elsewhere, and seeing her face to face. We got to talk about college and stuff and what I’m going to do after high school, and we’ve been really needing to set out a definite plan for awhile. So that was good. And we got to just talk about what’s been going on. We’re getting better at being able to talk to each other. It’s weird, it’s like being apart like we have has brought us closer together. I can talk to her about stuff without feeling like I’m annoying her or something, and she’s getting better at learning how to respond. She used to never be able to tell if I was just venting, or if I really wanted some feedback, or I just needed someone to tell me something positive, or to just go for it or anything like that. So I’m happy we can actually talk to each other now without either of us getting frustrated with the other and then end up in a yelling match.
• My dad is attempting at becoming closer in our relationship, but it’s hard when there’s still things I don’t want to talk to him about. But he’s trying, so that’s progress. I’ll take progress over completely socially awkward Dad any day.
• However I really wish both of my parents would stop smoking. I had kind of given up on really protesting my dad smoking about a year ago, but I still express my disdain for it. However my mom had quit years ago. I was still in elementary school when she quit. But around Christmas Break she started again because of stress, or at least that’s what she uses as justification for it. I’m really disappointed in her about it though. And I’m pretty vocal about it. I really wish they would both quit…
• I’ve discovered it’s harder to tolerate my grandmother when she’s been drinking and around my family. It’s easy to avoid her when it’s just Terry and I with her back home, but when she’s around plenty of other people, she finds more stuff to find fault with. And it’s harder to ignore her then. It’s really quite frustrating. Tomorrow should be fun with Dee and Tony here, two more people for her to squawk at… But i am looking forward to seeing them. Tony is always a ball to be around. And he’s so well versed in theatre, it’s fabulous. So I’ll just stick to his side tomorrow.
• I got about four outlines for Gov’t finished today. I’m proud. And exhausted.
• My grandmother’s dogs are staying with me because the hotel my grandparents are staying at doesn’t allow dogs. And my grandmother had already given them their treat for the night around eight o’clock when she left, and she told me so; but when I came back into my room around twenty minutes ago, they both started acting like I was going to give them a treat! I laughed telling them they couldn’t fool me because I already knew they’d be given their snacks. It’s was quite humorous.
• And everybody else, everybody else, everybody else, everybody, everybody’s doing it.
