Just when it couldn't get anymore confusing....

Weekends, those blissful two days when you can forget about the stress of the week and relax for a while. A time when everyone is happy treats each other nicely and just generally gets along. The only two days I get to be welcomed back into my house and enjoy the time. *reads the past few sentences and dies* I WISH!!!!

This weekend was a weird combination of hell and obliviosness. The type of weekend where I wonder why I even bother going back. Friday was ok. I get home to painter problems. Yes, they are still painting the house. They were doing the inner trim on the windows cuz they screwed them up when they were fixing the outer windows and my mom freaxed out cuz it wasn't the original color. Then the dude wanted the rest of the payment even though the job isn't done! Yup, my mom freaxed. So I gave up and watched Trigun for the rest of the night. Finished it too. All I can say about the ending is Oh my freaking God! It was just really powerful to the point that I was shaking when it finished.

Then there's Saturday. Weird man... I wake up at noon only to find that my family has been up for a while raking leaves. So I just did my thing and started reading my history book, trying to do some work. Only to have my mother complaining cuz not only had she raked leaves, but now she had to clean inside too because no one had done anything to help. She then proceeded to slam around and mutter angrily. And then she refused ANY help when asked. Sigh... At 3 my brother's dumb friends came so that for my bro's birthday the went to see Scary Movie 3. I went with my little sis to see Brother Bear. GO SEE IT! It was so cute. Yeah, then I had to babysit at 7:30. Thus I didn't get to see the completed lunar eclipse. I saw most of the beginning (so beautiful), but then nothing. The last one was in the spring, but it was cloudy and Sat night was perfect! But.... So yeah. And I read a lot in the book I need to finish by Tuesday.

Then today.... I bought a printer!!!!! That makes me very happy. It's a scanner/copier/printer dealie. And only $150! The same as my calculator *makes face*. But I didn't get to finish the book and tempers where running very high. I'm actually kind of concerned at this point. My mom freaks at the slightest provoction and it frustrates everyone. I think my dad is getting angry at it because I've noticed that he avoids being around my mom on the weekends. It makes it hard for me with my workload when I go home and I'm expected to fall back in to the mother's helper role. I just can't do it anymore. It's wearing everyone thin and... I dunno. So now I'm back at school where I can let the work and classes take over my mind. I've discovered that I dread weekends. I have too much free time to actually think about my life. At least during the week, the real world doesn't exist. And dear lord that isn't healthy at all, but right now I find myself not caring in the slightest. As they always say, 'I live in my own world. But it's ok, they know me here.' I'd just like to add to that. 'and they don't bug me here either' Till next time!

ETA: It's my birthday on Saturday and I'll be 18!!!! *is now uber-happy* I haven't really been keeping track and it just hit me! Whee!!!
