I don't believe this guy...
Last nite I was hanging up my swim stuff in the bathroom. I went to hang my towel over the shower curtain rod and the rod ended up falling(it's just kinda suctioned to the wall). So I told my grandpa that the curtain rod fell and that I tried to get it back up, but I wasn't tall enough. So he gets out of his chair all grumblie and goes to fix it.
The next thing I know, he's in my room yelling at me for hanging my towel up. "Why is this towel so wet?!" Me: "uhh...cause it's from swim class..." Then he starts swearing at me and threatening me! I'm like "dude! It's a shower curtain rod, chill out!" Then he starts waving his fists at me and at that point i reach over into my nightstand and dig around for my knife(And finally keeping weapons in my nightstand pays off!). I mean, I didn't know if he was gonna start to strangle me or not!!! I needed some kind of weapon to protect myself long enough to get off the bed and get my sword(yes, I have a sword in my room) out of it's case. Well, he didn't try anything. I think he knew what I was getting out of my drawer. So then he tells me to pack a bag and get out of the house. Needless to say, I didn't do that. But I've never been more tempted to do so in my life. Then he started in on my mom. Threatening her that he was gonna put her in the hospital if she ever "mouthed off" to him again. She didn't even say a word other than "knock it off, leave her alone" So at this point I got my knife out and I'm standing by my bedroom door with the thing in my hand. I'll be damned if he goes after my mother and I'm helpless to stop it.
After things calmed down and he went to bed, I went to sit w/my mom in the livingroom. She told me that she wasn't about to let him drive me to school the next morning and that I could stay home if I wanted. I thought about taking the bus, but I don't know what time it picks up around here or where it picks up. So I stayed home. Unfortunately...I couldn't go shopping w/my friend after school like we had planned. I e-mailed her and asked if she wanted to go later on tonight after my mom got home from work. That way she could drive us.
So there's my exciting story of the day. Now that I think about it...if he had tried anything with my mom or me, I would have killed him last night. And I am not joking about that.
