I need a facepalm icon.

How is it that no matter how old you get your parents are always capable of making you want to bang your head against the nearest available wall?

I love them. They love me. But. They don't-- I don't-- Nnrf.

Deep breaths and a long talk with the girlfriend help. Followed by an email to the parents because an apology never hurt anyone.


Seriously though, I'm 25. My mother shouldn't make me want to tear my hair out. Or at least shouldn't make me want to put up emo live journal posts about how lame my parents are.

Heh.

*wraps arms around you* Oh, hon.

I'll see you tonight, yeah? We'll rest then.

*curls up in your lap* Narf.

And yes. Rest and cuddles. It's all I really want.

...though, you haven't had an easy week either. Anything I can make sure we have around home?

Don't kid yourself. I'll be 50 next birthday, and mine can STILL do that to me. It's not something that goes away. It just gets more embarrassing.

*wrrrrrrrrry* Excellent.
It just seems a little unfair that parents have that kind of wacky power.

YEP. (Though I'm 31.)

Had a big family dinner last night. And... yeah. I admit a kind of perverse satisfaction at watching my grandmother make my mom facepalm.

...I am a bad kid. Heh. ^^;;

Today is the day of parents driving their children nuts. It must be a national holiday that you don't find out about until you are a parent yourself. But, I agree; this has to stop. The sad thing is, I don't believe it ever will. EVER. >:(

For now, I must be off to deal with the Father Person. *headdesk*

Seriously.
Parents are for the crazy making.

*hugs* I hope you make it okay too.

Also. Keywords.

[chinchilla82.livejournal.com]

*hugs back* You too, Runey.

But...snrrk? Keywords?

[runefallstar.livejournal.com]

*keywords for the win!*

I don't have a problem with my parents... but I think my mother-in-law is a complete loon. Manic-Depressive at the least. Down right mean at the worst.

We solved our problem by not living within 4 states of her for a very long time.

See, that's the thing. I know my mom is nutty, but mostly in a good way. She and I have too much in common personality wise to not rub each other the wrong way sometimes, but it's still frustrating.

Heh. Though I do admit there are times when it was much easier when I was 1,500 miles away and in college. ^^;

I love my mom to death, I do, but she's also the fruitiest of fruit loops and can drive me absolutely bonkers. Not so much now that I don't live in the same state or even remotely close. But I do hear what you're saying. And I guess it's just because they're PARENTS. Frustrating their children - it kind of comes with the job description, I think.

*hugs*

See, that's it exactly. Love, LOVE my parents 90% of the time. It's just that little 10% that is for the crazy making.

Then again, if our parents didn't drive us bugfuck I'm sure there are plenty of people who would never move out. XD
