I want to go home, I want to go home, I want to go home.
I just went into the kitchen to get something to eat. mom came into the kitchen as I was pulling out the stuffing. "We're going to be eating diner in a little bit." "When?" "Soon." "Oka, but I'm hungry now, I want something to tide me over." "Allison, don't eat that, we're going to be eating dinner soon."
Mrowwwwwwr.
I was going to grab Oreos, but I figured I should probably eat something a little more nutritious. So much for that.
Damnall, I'm used to eating at 5:00-5:30 at school, when I'm hungry, and I told her that It's 7:00 now and she's telling me NOT to eat? When I've been hungry for two hours and there is NO sign of anyone even BEGINNING to make dinner?
Why the fuck am I not allowed to eat when I'm hungry????
And--
She just discovered that one of the dogs peed on the floor, because someone closed the dog door. She yelled at the dogs as she threw them outside, then the first the she shouted when she came back in the door was, "DID YOU CLOSE THE DOG DOOR, ALLISON?????"
*sigh*
I yelled back at her, telling her I didn't touch the damn dog door, and not to yell at me. She said she's not yelling at ME. She's a bloody hypocrite. I can't count the number of time's she's gotten pissed at me because I was upset while I was talking to her about something, and she said not to yell at her, then refused to believe me when I said I wasn't yelling at her and I wasn't upset at her, I was just upset.
*deep breath*
Just one more day, and most of that will be on my own. She has work tomorrow, and D has school, and they both leave very early in the morning.
Damnitall, I do NOT want to come back here for Christmas break. *vhs* :(

Date: 2003-11-30 09:47 pm (UTC)Lovely thought. Wish I could. The dorms are closed over winter break. I have to go somewhere, I don't have the money to buy a ticket anywhere, especially at this short notice, and the tickets to come here have already been bought.
I was seriously considering just switching myself to a night schedule for the month, and sleeping while everyone was home and bitchy. But I don't have a room--Nana and Boppa are spending the winter with us, and they're in my room--I'm going to be sleeping on the couch. So that won't work, either.
Meowwwwwwwwwwww. :(:(:(:(:(:(
Summer will suck so much. :(

Date: 2003-12-01 06:45 am (UTC)*hugs* Whatever you do, this is getting ludicrous. You're 18 years old and you don't have to put up with this shit anymore. You don't deserve to be treated like a child, and the only way they can treat you that way is if you let them. Don't.
But then, I'm a stubborn bitch and my family would be hearing about it if they tried to treat me the same way they did before I left. Especially if I were to visit. You are a grown woman and you are a guest in their house. You deserve the same hospitality as any other guest. I seriously doubt your mother tries to treat the rest of her guests like children. Tell her that. (Minus my snarky comment.) If she protests with bullshit about you still being her daughter, tell her, "It doesn't matter. I'm 18. I'm an adult. I don't *have* to come here on breaks. If you want further contact with me, then you will have to treat me on my terms as an equal, as an adult."
Course, with that, you're pretty much making it an all-out confrontation and you have to stand by your words--not let yourself be pushed around. If she refuses to treat you as an adult, there's the possibility she might try financial blackmail to get you to act the way she wants. (Yes, I prepare for Worst Case Scenarios first. It's saved my ass many times.)
Sometimes you just have to play hardball to get decent treatment ...
