Saying you’re a single parent when you are not is like saying you’re handicapped when you have merely a sprained ankle;
Your temporary inconvenience does not equal my everyday struggle.

Happy Hour


The past few weeks have been nothing but annoying. Irritating really. And I’m just sick and tired of it all.
There are quite a few things that have been bothering me. And I have decided to share with all of you my frustrations. It's mostly a venting type thing, because I don't want to unload all this on one of my friends, because they will probably get overwhelmed.

Here are a few things that I hate.

1. People expecting me to go out of my way for them, but won’t do anything in return for me. It’s a two-way street. Treat others the way you want to be treated. 

2. Working at my mother’s store for practically nothing. I work Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Mon/Tues usually from 9 or 10 until 5. Thursday from 12-5. Why should I waste my time, sitting in here, day after day, when I could be working elsewhere and actually bringing home a pay check? Because it’s the nice daughter thing to do?
It’s nice that I can be in here with K, but that’s about it.

3. I’m not done remodeling my house. It’s been over a year since I started. I’m close, but not close enough that I can live there. Basically because my mother doesn’t have me as a priority on her list. She would rather fix up the P.O.S. trailer at Grandma’s farm for someone else, than help her own daughter. 
And she doesn’t want me working on the house by myself. Well, that’s cool. Glad I’m 22 and you can’t even trust me to paint or work on something by myself. Maybe you should hold my hand when I cross the street too.

4. People that have borrowed money from me, and have yet to pay me back..months later.

5. Feeling inadequate.

6. Being judged for spending money on myself.

7. Starting my 5th year of college, when all I want to do is be done now. This will be my final year, and I’m still not sure what I want to do with my life. That’s always cool, huh?

8. People that complain all the time. I’m sure your life isn’t as terrible as you make it seem.

9. People, friends especially, that have changed so much that you barely even recognize them anymore. I’m not talking about looks. Just personality.  It’s like..do I even know you?

10. Last, but not least, PEOPLE THAT IGNORE ME. If you don’t want to talk to me, then just say so. Say something like, “Sorry, I really don’t want to talk.” SIMPLE AS THAT.


I don’t care if this offends anyone, really. Because if it offends you, you’re probably one of the people that I’m bitching about. Sorry I'm not sorry. BUCK UP.

It's Thursday. I'm thirsty. If you want to join me, BYOB.
