i dont know if paranoid is the word to describe how i feel this morning.

im sitting here with all the doors locked and all the storm doors locked. he'll be here at nine. he didnt even know i had a day off until the school started sending him school newsletters, becuase hes my dad. he wants me to go to his place today. originally we were going to visit the atv damage in michaux, but i have to study for my AP exams. and i study better at my desk at mom's. but he's fighting for time i "owe" him from my trip to indiana. i think we should just switch weekends, this weekend and the next one, because weve got the canoe trip next weekend and i HAVE to look for a prom dress this weekend. but of course he doesnt want to do that.

and of course he doesnt listen to me when i say "i want to study at mom's" its a very simple request. and i am of legal age, i do not have to abide by the custody order. which didnt say anything about having off school on fridays, anyway. ::sighs:: ::really deep sigh:: this is such a pain in the neck.

My email to him: i got online to let you know that mom left for work ((so he doesnt bother bringing a check for ND))i would like to stay here today to study, and id like you to respect that and to remind you that im 18, i dont owe you any time. and that i'd like you to drop the issue because i dont want a scene at the door like before

he broke the door when a similar situation happened years ago. he also drove the van up on the grass at me when i was standing on the porch. because i wouldnt let him inside to call his lawyer.

::closes her eyes and crinkles her nose in disgust:: what a real pain in the neck.

some better news! my financial aid package was revised. i only have the stafford loan now, instead of that and perkins. and they put the comcast money to take $1000 off my work study!

i might go do one or two yoga poses. this is a hell of a lot of stress for so early in the morning.
