Hello Mudda, Hello Fadda

My family just stopped through on their way to help J move back into school. I don't know why, but I still feel the need to perform and gain approval from my parents. It's not as if they care either way, it's a personal problem of mine. It's very draining. They met our new kitty, and Mom wasn't pleased because we're breaking our lease with too many animals. I said I couldn't let him get killed at the shelter and had to save him and she said I'm hopeless. It's true. J thought he was the cutest thing she'd ever seen. They also brought a book back that I forgot at home. It was kind of embarrassing because lately I've been into a lot of paranormal books, so I got crap about that. I'm sorry I like reading about vampires...since I'm not in band anymore and can't exactly play trombone in my apartment I need something that is a huge mental break from science. Paranormal books provide that. I think I need to work on developing a more confident sense of self. It would clear up a lot of my issues.
