I'd forgotten that, a couple days before Mom leaves, the house is full of chaos and all these stupid little tasks that Mom thinks are vital and need to be done immediately. Maybe I'm just bitchy; I just can't imagine why the Christmas presents for my various relations need to be wrapped in September. I'm going to have to wrap them anyway, why can't I just wait until December. Or even November? Does it all really have to happen now?
Seriously, I can't wait until she's gone. I want to move out so badly I can almost taste it. I know I can't, so I'm waiting for the next best thing. Maybe I should have talked to them, let them know why I'm uncomfortable here. I just can't see the good that it would do. Mom can't even understand why I'm embarassed to have her use female pronouns at me in front of my friends. And when I tried explaining it to her she laughed at me like I'm some stupid child throwing a tantrum over nothing. I'm sick of being humoured. I want them to take me seriously.
I've talked to friends who understand the 'parents turn me into an angry teenager' thing, so it might not just be me. Maybe it's a universal parent thing. Dunno.
Other than that, life's been good. Doing nothing is awesome, but I'm rather sick of it by now. I can seriously not wait for classes to start. (Although the beginning of classes also conincides with Mom's leaving. Two good things in one day!) This semester is going to be rad. On top of taking (hopefully) interesting classes, I've got drag and other MYN stuff and I'm thinking about going back to swing. Because I miss it. A lot. And I have a social life now. Spending a lot of time with Trev and Kait and the other awesome people living at the Blue Howse. I love my friends. They're amazing. I love having places where I can go and feel comfortable and accepted. I don't know what I'd do if I didn't.
My hair is purple now! So much fun. xD Although the 'wash with cold water' part is rather...uh...yeah. Cold.
Where did summer go? I swear it wasn't that long ago that it was nice and warm. Tonight it's going down to zero. ZERO. We'll probably have frost. Fall is coming. Halloween is coming!
