Snafu - situation normal, all fucked up

[raven]

I know now what my parents are fighting about. It's all tied in with the plans I made to go to London. And now my mother swears she won't go, because of something or other my dad said; and we can't go otherwise, because my dad doesn't want me to, and I want to kill them both for being so fucking stubborn and for making sure every plan I make fucks up!
Add this to the fact everything else is a pile of crap.
Our only chance now is to find another consenting adult who is willing to go with us. Probabilty - non-existent.
It may be a completely typical, angst-ridden teenage girl thing to say, but sometimes I hate the hell out of both my parents. My mother particularly. She just gave me one of those "C'est la vie" shrugs, which made me feel like lifting up that colander full of chopped lettuce and emptying it over her head.
I wouldn't have minded if it was a real reason we couldn't go. But no, it's just the idiocy of two adults.
