I'm back at home.
I think my mom is going to drive me crazy - I hope she gets used to having me here and gives me a little space. I just went to seek refuge in my father's unused office (unused because he hasn't - get this - "transferred his e-mail to his new computer"). Ok, actually that parenthetical remark may merit an explanation. My parents have been paying for TWO INTERNET PROVIDERS. Why?!? because my dad still needs the verizon e-mail address, even though our verizon internet doesn't work well at all. So, he got gmail, but couldn't figure out how to set that up with his e-mail client on his new macintosh (my dad used to be a PC only guy - he doesn't really get macs yet). Anyway, apparently he's also had an iPhone since January - I had no idea, I've never seen it, because. HE NEVER USES IT because he can't set up gmail on it. I should've insisted that my dad pay me to fix this problem - apparently he already paid someone else who set it up all wrong. I got all of his problems settled in about 10 minutes, pretty good seeing as I, too, know little about macs and have never touched an iPhone. This is all really annoying to me since I definitely did not get a new computer all year even though mine has slowly been breaking down and I've been relying on school computers all year. To be fair, my dad's the one that makes the money so I guess it makes sense that he got TWO NEW COMPUTERS AND AN iPHONE?!?! anyway. I don't want an iPhone anyway.
