Yippity Dippity!!!
I'm not even going to try to curb my enthusiasm here. So, my Easter break at home wasn't the great, but I did get a NEW CAR. No messing around here kids, I'm talking a 2005 black Chevrolet Cobalt!! Dad and I went on Saturday to C. Harper in Belle Vernon, and after looking around a bit at Aveos, Sunfires, and Cobalts, I came home with a shiny new Cobalt! I almost got an Aveo like Chris's rents have, because they were a few thou less than the Cobalt, but there was some Smart plan that went with the Cobalt, so we decided on that one. I've been driving her non-stop all weekend to Brandon's, grocery store, etc, and I love her. I say her, because I figured out a great name for her, and I've decided on Callie. Brandon and I were driving home from Walmart after getting car wash, car mats, a sponge, and various other products for car-beautifulness, and the name just popped into my head. She's sleek and smooth and mysterious and beautiful, so I think that Callie is a great name. Callie Cobalt :):):)
Hey, it's my first new car, and I'm pumped about it. I also helped mom and dad...well dad, get a better car insurance, so the only 'new' cost is the car payment, which is a pretty good payment afterall. So, I was happy about that, because AllState sucks ass, and they were charging us over $1000 more than other companies. Assholes. Everyone's out to make a buck.
So, I brought my new car back to school, and I managed to get one of the last spots in the lot by the new dorms. I'm really worried about parking her away from me! I'm a proud new mama and I need her near me, so I can look out the window and see her :)
Easter weekend was okay at best, aside from getting the new car. Mom still hates dad and refuses to talk to him, and he was worried all weekend about making a wrong move, causing her to flip out. She slept all weekend, and I mean all weekend, all day long. I went to Brandon's for Easter day, because she told me to go there and not to worry about what 'she was going to do'. So, I went there, and Brandon's mom even got me an Easter basket, which I have to say was pretty awesome. Whenever I'm there, I really don't want to leave, because his family always makes me feel so welcome and at home, unlike how I feel at my actual home. My dad's always complaining to me and saying my mom needs help, but to her I'm only a kid, and I can't do shit to help her. It's eternally frustrating. Liz came over this weekend, and we talked a lot about it, and she thinks that I should really just distance myself from them, but it's really hard to do that because I do love them. They are my parents, afterall, but most of the time, they're just not good for me, and she's completely right. A big part of me is really really afraid of what will happen if A.) They get a divorce B.) I distance myself and never come home, and C.) If they just stay together and be miserable like they are.
It's truly a no-win situation, and it hurts like hell. I just want them to be OK, but I know that it's just not that easy.
So I'm back at school and getting some serious work done for the week. I managed ot nearly finish my paper for Math, which still baffles, but it was actually pretty nice, since it was semi-stress free. It was only a 6-page biography on Galileo, and since I'm well-versed in writing more complex papers, I didn't mind doing it at all. As a matter of fact, I guess I kinda enjoyed it. Now, all I have to do for this week is a 5-page draft for Professor Murray, which will be a tad more complex, considering I have to discuss the economic structure of a country, including excruciating details that bore the poo out of me.
So, that's that for now. I'm going to Brandon's now to make some chow, since we've decided not to go to the Cafe because there's practically a flood outside.
Bye Bye!
