Okay, so if I’m immature, arrogant, immoral, and that other ‘i’ word, then I must be a kid. I mean I’m only 15, so I guess I am a kid, as much as my mentality would love to argue that point. And the month happens to be August, which means all kids should be enjoying their summer vacations, right?
Well apparently not. Apparently the proper way to spend your time off in the summer is not hanging with your friends, or enjoying your youth while it remains. Apparently the proper way to enjoy your summer vacation is to vacuum at least once a week, do the laundry whenever a single shirt lands in the hamper, dust and tidy twice weekly, and clean all the bathrooms. Not to mention washing the floors when they need it, cleaning the kitchen three times a day, and cooking three or four times a day depending on when the rest of the house hold wants their meals. And as you have plans made, they might as well consist of also watering gardens, mowing the lawn, picking blueberries and peas for your parents, painting the deck, and refilling the birdfeeders. That is how you should spend your summer vacation if you are a kid.
Now I realize that my parents work long hours five days a week, and that since I have the time off chipping in is appreciated. However I didn’t think that included doing everything. It takes one person four-five hours to clean this house, when everyone helps it takes two hours max. Cooking and cleaning? Well combined it’s two hours, maybe three hours work. Doing either it’s an thirty minutes to an hour’s. Laundry? An ongoing process lasting the majority of one day leaving you with nothing else you can do. Washing the floors? An hour’s work, plus the inconvenience of not being able to walk out of the room you left yourself in for an hour. Watering the gardens? That’s twenty minutes per garden, times three gardens. Mowing the lawn is at least two hours work. Picking blueberries, two hours at least, peas? maybe five minutes. Painting the deck, that will certainly take six hours to strip, sand, prime, and put two coats down. Birdfeeders? Maybe twenty minutes. So that’s ninety-one hours worth of work in a one hundred and twenty hour week. Which leaves time to sleep.
This might be slightly unreasonable of me, since they work all day, but my parents CAN chip in! They don’t have to work during their vacations, they make us, so why should we do all the work during ours? I don’t understand! It’s selfish and crazy. Clearly I’m not allowed to have a life.
</rant> (which sucked because I mentally vented too much while doing the dishes)
Okay, so I was in a good mood today until my cranky mother got home. She’s better now that she’s infected my father and I. Oh well, I’ll live. At least I can smile because I know she’ll be pissed when I don’t do all the things she wants me to do. Oh well, I don’t have time!
Tindall call me!!!!! Now. Nowish? Never. Okay, I know you don’t read this. Awi!!! We tried to call you, you might have a really long message, it’s hard to hang up on an answering machine during a three-way call, say sorry to whoever has to listen to it for me  .
Had fun today, I’ve figured out what’s wrong with me. Lockerby. It’s Lockerby, it turns all the good boys into bad boys... or good boys since they don’t get caught. However how are we going to convert people next year without Rachel and Janis and Darien and Steve?
I’m mad at everyone who’s name starts with J and is male, minus any Joeys. Well okay, maybe it’s only Jesse, Janis, JR, and Joe. We’re always mad at Joe though... So maybe he should stop counting... Same goes with Jesse.
Oh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got to talk to Jimi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went crazy! Ask Alex, he got confused. Jimi’s res management at McMaster this year, it’s a year off for him. He’s having fun though, and that’s the good part. He seriously needs to make a cd, cabin eight – we WILL kidnap him.
Anyway, that’s all for now folks.
*hugs*
P.S. Remember to smile!
Oh fuck! Shit! Crap! Gotta go! I’m going to kill myself now!!! FUCK! – Tara (missing the first 30 seconds of Buffy)
P.S.S. I’m still looking for other left-handed shakers.
