To my grandparents:
I love you dearly, i really do. So when you guilted me into spending a whole week of my last three weeks home (before i move to germany) staying at your house instead of with my best friend, i respectfully obliged. HOWEVER, this has been one of the worst weeks of my life!! For one thing, im damn near starving to death because i'm too scared to eat or drink anything out of your old kitchen thats crawling with baby roaches!
And then granny you have the nerve to insinsuate that i'm annorexic and trying to lose weight! Umm.. NO- i'd just rather starve to death than accidentally swallow a bug. Second- i'm tired as hell, walking around with dark circles under my eyes because i cant sleep, thanks again to your "little friends" that keep scurrying across the floor and on the table in the den where i have to sleep on a couch thats wayy too small to begin with but then of course the dog has to come and take up a whole cushion! Then the two of you have the audacity to sit me down and tell me that i'm being "innappropriate" by wearing my shorts! In case you havent noticed, Its the year 2012, and not only is it summer, but we're experiencing the hottest drought in over a hundred years with record breaking temperatures and heat index (in America)!! And it doesnt matter whether or not my husband is around- he bought me the shorts so obviously he knows im going to wear them. If he didnt want me wearing them while he was gone, he wouldve packed them into his suitcase and took them with him! But he didnt, so leave me alone and let me wear whatever the hell i want! And last but not least... I'M NOT YOUR F*CKING SLAVE SO STOP TREATING ME LIKE ONE!! I know you're old and you cant get around like you used to and i really am happy to help.. BUT THERES A LIMIT. I am so tired of sweeping and vacuuming the same rooms every day! Stop calling me away from what i'm doing to ask me to bring you a soda- "dont forget the ice!"- and to pick up your dirty plates after youre done eating. And if i have to wash another damn dish i'm going to rip my hair out and scream!!!!!!!!
I cant wait to get out of here on saturday! I'll come back to visit you but i'd sleep on the street before i ever consider living here again for any amount of time.
Love Always,
Your Granddaughter
