there is a three inch long scar on the backseat of our camry because a clove flew back in the window last night.
and now my parents know i smoke.
theyre surprisingly ok with it. except that i have so much invested in my mouth that my mother cant believe id do something so disgusting to it. and my dad wishes i wouldnt. and is more upset that i told him i dont smoke when he asked me. (although the conversation went something like this - dad 'eliot smokes so much. he goes to the garage and has about three cigarettes and comes back and smells disgusting. it makes the whole house stink. he probably had about eight today while i was there. i dont know how people get into it. its so bad for your teeth and your skin. its a filthy habit. you dont smoke do you?' me - 'uh. no.' i mean really. what am i supposed to say?)
my dad asked me why i lied. i didnt have a good answer. then he told me im my own person and i do what i do so i should just be honest about it. and then he said 'i guess i kept secrets from my parents when i was younger. but i know more about you than you think' it was odd. how do you respond to that? weird.
then i almost broke a board my dad had custom fit for the garage project hes working on right now. it was a rough day. but it all went over surprisingly well. now i just have two piercings and a tattoo to deal with.
and tomorrow im bleaching my hair again. and then getting it cut next week. and going to school to study japan. woot. busy again!
