I often get into fights with my cousin/brother when we go to my grandpa's or when my grandpa comes to our house. We went to Grandpa's house for dinner. The dinner was delicious, but our behavior, according to my mom was not good enough for our ages, 13 and 20. In my defense, I was tired, after having only gotten a few hours of sleep last night. I tried to take the high road as we played croquet, but my cousin ended up throwing two substantial tantrums saying that I cheated (one was based in truth... my mom told me to cheat though, and the other was all in his mind).
I was lying in my tv room, leaning on my cousin a few minutes ago, the events of the evening forgotten and forgiven, when my mom came downstairs from her bedroom and announced that we had been immature. Then my dad came home from his trip to the grocery store. He had purchased me some Mike's Hard Lime, and I had intended to drink one then crash, and go to sleep. My Mom ended up telling me that if I wasn't going to act my age, I wasn't going to drink. So I just sighed, and told her fine, that I'd just go to bed. So now I'm sitting here, trying to calm down enough to go to sleep because I'm tired. I had to be at work at 5am today and the same for tomorrow. I don't care if it isn't even 9 here, I'm tired. But now I can't think of sleeping because I feel so angry and so guilty. I really don't think I acted as poorly as she is making it out to be. I guess though you see things through your own eyes, and not the eyes of other people, which makes it difficult to see yourself.
