Okay, my turn. Meh. I know this isn't *huge* but I'm in a last-straw kind of mood.
My mom and I fight a lot. We've gotten a lot better since I left for school at the end of the summer, but she's still always on my tail. She's the overbearing type, but she's also a bit of a stubborn b*tch. I love my mom, but there's always a lot of tension between us, and that just gets worse when I come home now, since we're not used to being together that much. We've been fighting non-stop the past week over various things with which I will not bore you all, and things seemed to be finally working out yesterday and the day before. But every time things seem to be clearing up, something sets her off again... and it never takes much. I've hardly seen her all day, but the second I walked into my house this morning after going out with some friends for a late breakfast, she was just really snappy... and I hadn't even had the chance to *do* anything to her. We were perfectly fine yesterday. She's in a sh*tty mood, but not over anything I did... she's snapping at my entire family. Finally, like twenty minutes ago I broke, and was like "mom. What the HELL is your problem today?" She says she doesn't have a problem, she was just "commenting." She gave me a whole drawn out bit about how she's sick of my sitting around and doing nothing this break. I've got three weeks off of school, and LITERALLY nothing to do. I've started reading a book, but I'm not really being productive - I don't *have* anything to produce. Usually over breaks I get schoolwork to do, but I don't have any. I'm working a bit at one of my jobs from high school, but she doesn't seem to deem that worthy of being considered an activity. Even on days when I don't sit around constantly, I still get an argument for doing "nothing." And... grrr. I hate being snapped at when I didn't do anything wrong. All I did was walk into my kitchen. In all aspects, no matter what I do, it's never good enough.
*cries*
.... and now, back to your regularly scheduled programming. I just wanted to vent.
