Cry Love

I just watched arrested developement for eight hours at marshalls house, and skye could only stay for a few hours cause she had to work, and i missed her. Michelle I hope poker was fun, :)

Jokingly i said to my dad today, "i might marry a mechanic because then i wouldnt have to pay so much to get my car fixed all the time." (this comment was provoked by the fact that i recently fucked up my car and am looking at anywhere from 500-1000 dollars to fix it.)

my dad looked at me and said,
"I hope your joking, just consider what you're saying. Mechanics dont really do so well for themsleves. you ought to be thinking of marrying someone who is more like you socially and intelectually, someone who can make good money, a good man. Not some guy with a low level job like a mechanic."

Pretty much this made me sick. i laughed at him. whatever,
"Love," I said, "for me, hasn't got anything to do with whether you are a mechanic or a doctor. If i fall in love with someone im not going to be basing it on what their choosen career is, becuase in the end it doesn't matter. I'd rather be happy and unstable, than unhappy and well off."

He said, "Sure, thats what you say now but wait until your older you'll be thinking differntly then."
For the love of god, like i what i think now is irrelevant, and all i care about is money, and really thats all anyone cares about. True, many people are like that, but that doesn't mean i have to be.

right here right now, I am pledging that I wont fucking change my mind about this when im older and I will marry or fall in love with whoever the hell i want and that im not going to care about stupid materialistic shit like that. because seriously most people aren't really happy. So why the hell would i want to be like them?
I wouldn't.
I really expected better from my dad.
