Jun. 1st, 2011 09:31 amThe parental units have finally left. The house became so quiet, it was slightly creepy.
On Monday, I helped my dad install a new garage door. The kit said it would only take four hours. Not sure who came up with that estimate. It took nearly all day.
Then my dad went out to help my mother work on the deck. Not sure why since she was constantly yelling at him and chasing him off. She's not a team player.
Tuesday, I went to work at nearly the crack of dawn so that I could leave early. It wasn't the best of ideas. I was too tired to think and kept crying over the stupid things the marketing agency did. I left just a bit before 4 so I could drive my parents to the car place to pick up their car.
I got them peruvian chicken for dinner so they'd shut up about all the vegetarian food I eat. When I visit them, I don't complain about the meat. I eat around it. When they visit me, they shouldn't complain about the lack of meat. Everything I served had some protein in it, so it's not like they were going to be deficient.
After dinner, they packed up and left. I found that a bit odd. They left around 9pm. I hate driving at night. Maybe they hated staying with me that much? Oh well, my dog and I got to have a quiet night once they were gone. I did a little cleaning and then went to bed.
Ben called me maybe an hour after I fell asleep. It was really good to talk to him, though he said I was having trouble following conversations. At least with my parents distracting me, the start of the week went a little faster. Only another three more days until he returns home to me.
In the morning, my dog peed everywhere in the yard to cover up the smell of my parents' dogs. She seemed pleased with herself.
So far the day hasn't been that bad, aside from a very hot bus ride. Hopefully it goes fast. I have a lot of cleaning to do when I get home. Plus I need to plant my tomatoes AGAIN. These stupid things won't stay alive. What am I doing wrong???
