My Weekend.

Three Days Grace concert. UH-MAZING. Katie and I were lucky enough to get a decent view of the stage, even though the place was freaking packed. The band that opened for them happened to be good friends with my dad, which was pretty cool. So they gave me a free T-shirt and my dad high fived all of them while they were playing. Ha. But yeah, Three Days Grace is a decent mainstream band. Their songs are pretty emotionally satisfying, regardless of how simple their lyrics are. Nothing was more satisfying than yelling "I hate everything about you! Why do I love you?" at the top of my lungs with my fist in the air. And since this was my first real concert experience, it was so goddamn awesome.

So Katie spent the night with me at my dad's house last night. This morning, Father's Day, was not so great. Katie and I wake up at 11:30 AM to my dad yelling at his whore girlfriend over the phone. Like really bad. And Katie's just like :O and I'm just like "Oh shit, not today."

So basically, the entire day Whore Girlfriend would call my dad, they would yell at each other and cuss at each other for ten minutes, then my dad would hang up, and then thirty seconds later she would call him back. If he didn't answer, she would keep calling OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN until he finally did answer. Then they would get in another fight, and so on and so on. It got so intense that Whore Girlfriend actually came over to our house uninvited (she's like the clingiest person ever). And my dad's like, "Get the hell out of my house!" And they argued in person, and then she left, and then Katie and I tried to ignore it and watch some cheesy 80's horror flicks, and the phone calls continued until we took Katie home.

My dad and Whore Girlfriend fight a lot, but this one was pretty damn bad. I apologized to Katie for my dad's utter immaturity, but she seemed okay, just a little...uncomfortable. God, my dad is such an idiot. He loves fighting and drama. I can just tell. If he didn't, then why would he answer her phone calls just to shout and cuss at her? He could've easily just put his phone on silent or turned it off and given himself a chance to cool down. But no, let's answer Whore Girlfriend's phone calls and make the whole situation worse!

I really don't like my dad. And I feel really bad that Katie had to put up with that :|

Yay, Three Days Grace!

That's Father's Day for you... honestly, I think the bar is set so low for dads it doesn't take much to be a "good" dad, which is unfortunate. I read an anecdote where the author took his kid grocery shopping, and the cashier lady commented that he was such an involved dad; he then said that if it was his wife taking the kids, would that same comment (replacing dad with mom, 'course) be passed?

People don't understand drama-escalators sometime. Like... she calls you twenty times before you answer; that just tells her that it takes twenty phone calls for her to hear your dulcet tones (I read that off a blog). Anyway, sorry about the negativity.

Sadly, as long as a father

Sadly, as long as a father brings home the paycheck, then he is oftentimes considered a "good father." It is sad, I agree. Like, people think my dad is a good dad because he pays child support. He doesn't even know anything about me, really. I'm nothing more than a monthly visit. I'm like his period. Ha ha.

My dad and Whore Girlfriend are both drama-lovers. Which is a really bad combination in any relationship. And as for all the negativity, it comes and goes :|
