right now I'm just enjoying my day off.
I'll probably start filling out my taxes today also. other than that not much else is going on except I'm still trying to figure out what the deal is with Michael.
the other day we went out on a date with his parents. I was kind of disappointed because I thought it was just going to be the two of us at dinner.. He started messing around like we do sometimes, acting like we were just meeting "Hey there, would you like to join me for dinner?" but it felt really stupid with his parents there so I said "I don't feel like playing.." after dinner as he was walking me out to my car, his mother said "now you Behave, Michael." why did she feel the need to tell us to BEHAVE as if we were doing something wrong? sometimes I feel like just striking up the conversation "Just so you know, Mr. and Mrs. Seufert, I am not having sex with your son.. also, in case you didn't realize, he is Twenty Five years old, so that really shouldn't be something that concerns you anyway. please kick your son out of your house because he is an adult, makes 18 dollars an hour, has a car, and needs to grow up." I like his family a lot, it just sucks that they know everything that goes on with us. They know when he leaves, where he's going, they assume we're having sex, and they know when he gets home. He even tells them stuff that I tell him.. I feel like we're in high school or something. It shouldn't matter if Mike wants to stay out until 1:00 in the morning spending time with me, but it matters because it is his FAMILY that I'm dating, not just him.. anyway, during the course of our little chat in the car, I asked him if he planned on living with his family until he got married. He kind of had this blank look on his face and said "well, yeah, that was the plan."
I felt like saying.. are you just waiting until you get married to move out of your house so you will have someone who will take care of you like your mother? I'm not wishing any hardships or pain on him, but seriously.. having problems and being forced to deal with them by yourself makes you an adult, and I don't think that has really happened to Mike yet.
Step up. take control of your own life, your mommy shouldn't always be there to cook your food and tell you everything is alright. because it's not always alright and you might as well learn that sooner than later, although it is getting later and later every day.
Don't worry, Jenny or anyone else who thinks I should just chill out and enjoy the ride. I am having fun. sometimes it is just easier to write everything out so I can organize my thoughts and see if they ring true.
my fish had babies last night! there are about 30.. anyone want babies? weee! :D
