I miss the pull of your heart.
I can’t wait to get my own place. I have had people suggest I stay here as long as I can and save money, but it’s not so easy. Don’t tell me you know it’s tough to live with the folks. Everyone knows that, but geez. I feel like I get the blame for so much. I feel like I make their life harder. If I move out,
They can’t blame me for,
The toilet getting hung up, using too much water, taking to long a shower, running the well dry, filling up the septic tank, staying on the phone too long, breaking the phone, misplacing the phone, leaving the phone off the hook, leaving lights on, having the ac too low, no room in the fridge, no room in the freezer, no room in the cabinets, not be able to get on the computer, not locking the bolt lock at night, not bracing the door.
They can’t blame me for messing up a nine hundred dollar sofa, or a three hundred dollar rug, or leaving stuff on.
They can’t blame me for my car being in the way, or not putting a chair back out of the rain when I put it back where I found it, out in the rain. It will be their house with their problems and I will have my own place with my own problems.
