Well, I TRIED to sleep all day today, but the world wouldn't leave me alone.

When I woke up an hour or so ago, I couldn't get back to sleep. There's some really annoying "ping" sound that is driving me insane. It sounds like water hitting against a pan over and over and over again, but I can't find out where it's coming from. It sounds like it's coming from outside but all the usual sounds outside drown it out unless I'm in my room. So now, I can't get to sleep.

Not that I could even if I wanted to, because my mother just called to say she's coming to spend the day with me. Hooray... For those of you who don't know my mom, she got permission from her officer to come down here because she's on probation from a DWI. Not to mention she's in her late 40s, acts like a 15 year old, smokes, drinks, smokes marijuana, and snorts coke. I moved away from home because of her, and she calls and says she's already on her way, so I can't say "Um, I'm busy this weekend..."

Shortly after my mom calls, my dad calls. How he got my number I don't know. He says he misses me and wants to hang out sometime, maybe next weekend, and to call him. That's great! My dad only hasn't called me in... I guess a year or so. And probably three years before that. He's a drunk-ass alcoholic in his 50s who just had a kid with his new girlfriend. And, on top of that, even though I'm a girl he LOVES to take me fishing. I guess his old girlfriends always loved fishing... and beer guzzling.

It's just one of those days... Share your horrible experiences with the rest of us. At least you can get it off your chest, I suppose.
