Feb. 17th, 2006 08:08 pmI come home, expecting what was pretty much a hard week to be over.
But noooooooo. Mom has to be all "OMG WE'RE GONNA WATCH ANOTHER MOVIE" yet AGAIN. Go figure, I tell her no. Again, and again, and again, and AGAIN. I mean NO. "Oh, what if I make you clean the entire kitchen? Will you feel tired enough to watch a movie, then?" Um, exsqeeze me?
Seriously, I am SICK of her asking to watch movies with me. When I say no, I mean NO. She bugs me over and over again to watch HER movies, but whenever I ask to see a movie, my parents will be, "Oh, okay! We'll go see that! :D" but go completely ignore me until days (weeks later), when the last thing on my mind is spending time in front of a television set to waste away three hours, when my parents barge in and are, "OMG WE'RE GONNA SEE _______, AND WE'RE GOING NOW!!1" I don't have a choice, and even when I try to schedule movie times, it gets completely blown off or "interrupted" (Or "Oh noes, I have to work!" by the time the exact date nears), making times completely predicatable again and my afternoon ruined because I'm dreading my Mom coming into the room and dragging me to the couch.
( This Much Trouble Comes From Being Forced to Watch Movies )
I've told my parents, over and over--watching movies with my family makes me uncomfortable. But do they listen? Nuh uh, they want to cling to whatever chance they have to talk to me before I frolick to college. Oh, whoop-dee-doo. Somehow, I really hate the idea of being forced and pushed and pushed and PUSHED just to watch a stupid movie after all the problems I've described above, and well... not much talk goes on after the movie after that, really. Wow, so much for interaction. Let me see if I can get my parents to agree with me on a board game for a millionth time, but no, they're "too busy". Yet, not so busy enough to pressure me about film when it's the last thing I want to do and I oh, want to recover and do what I want after a long, hard weekend of Inner*Angst, turmoil and misery. They can't seem to take a hint when I say I'm "uncomfortable" with something, "I don't feel like it", or hell, just saying no. "Yes you do." Um, I know what I'm saying and I've made it clear repetitive amounts of times.
Gods, if Saturday is just going to be this on-and-off-angst-and-cheer day too, I wish this week, or heck, February in general, would hurry the fuck up and get itself over with already.
