I fell asleep!  Hah!  I did it!  I fell asleep naturally at about 7 this morning!  I'd even been sleeping for about five hours when, lo, the phone rings and wakes me up.  It's my mom.  She informs me that she's been thinking; if I don't get a job this summer, how am I going to be able to afford books?  After all, I am paying for them, right?

IT WOULD FOR GOD DAMN SURE BE EASIER IF I WEREN'T STILL PAYING FOR YOUR STUPID DIVORCE, FREAK.  I drive 44 to 66 miles a week to go between your house and my dad's house because you two had a tiff and refuse to at least resolve it by paying for your only son's gas while  you make him drive between the two goddamn houses.  

The math gives me $2520 over the past two and a half years I've been driving.   Now, if I didn't want to eat or pay for the music I own, much less anything else, sure, I could do that out of my allowance, but life's just not that simple, is it?  And now I have $300 in the bank and a projected $500 for books.

Irate only begins to describe how I feel right now, because I'm about to drive another handful of dollars down the drain for my mom to drop off a load of branches for her at the dump.  Honestly, I just feel like strewing them about the living room about now and leaving for a few days.  Park my car or something and just sleep in it for a few days.
