I just rined my one chance to spend some time with my dad to have fun. We were going to go to ZoomZoom Live this morning, and i was realy excited about it. But this morning,i was about to get up and dad comes down to my room and says, “If you want to go, get up. If yo dont want to go, i’m going back to sleep.”
Well, in my grogy state, i tnterperted that as., “I’m tired, i want to go back to bed, but if you really want to go to this thing, i’ll stay awake.”
So i said, no, lets go back to sleep.
when i finally do get up, its 9:30 in the morning, and i go upstairs and mom says, “What you did this morning was unacceptable. You wanted to go to that thing this morning and you got Me, up, you got your dad up, but then you decided not to go because you stayed up until 2 in the morning (i didnt, by the way). You completely ruined my schedual to go to this thing and then you decide that you dont want to go. I dont even want to talk to you.”
So then i go and talk to my dad. and he says “So why idnt you get up this morning? you didnt even get up to feed the cats. what happened?”
“well you came down and you said, ‘if you dont want to get up, lets go back to sleep.’ I thought you wanted to go back to sleep.”
“No, What i said was, ‘if you want to go, get up. if you dont want to go, i’m going back to sleep.”
i sat there for a moment, “Do you still want to go? or is it pretty much impossible to go now?”
“Well, its pretty much impossible, because we have work to do outside and then we have to go places…”
“Ah, i see. okay…”
and then i walked out, not only feeling like an ass, but now like a stupid, self centered ass.
and thats how i ruined my one chance to spend some time having fun with my dad.
now, if you excuse me, i’m going to impale my self with a stick.
