MY FATHER IS A STUPID OLD MAN WHO'S PROSTATE CANCER IS CLEARLY CATCHING UP ON HIM.
Let me explain why I am angry: We have three beds in the house and two couches (more, one loveseat and one couch). One bed is mine, one is my brother's, and one is for both my parents, though my mother usually camps out on the loveseat at nights because she can't sleep when my father's loudly snoring a terrible rumble loud enough to match a freight train.
A close friend of both my parents recently had a terrible misfortune: her house flooded and now is entirely unlivable. Because of this, my parents gave away my room to my aunt, and pulled the full couch out of storage (aka: musty, filthy old shed that raccoon's break into), put it in the spare (and relatively empty) room and this is where I must sleep for the while.
I really don't mind this all that much, my aunt has enough problems to deal with at the moment, and my bitching won't cheer her up any.
HOWEVER. My dad's friend, whom my mother isn't very fond of because he's an alcoholic and a smoker (so he reeks of cigs and alcohol 24/7 and my mom seems to have a particular hate to my brother or I being within a 50 foot radius of second hand smoke) asked my dad if he could stay for us FOR A MONTH and I think my dad's gonna agree, he certainly sounded like it.
WHY THIS IS SO BAD? Uh, I dunno, how about THERE'S NO FUCKING ROOM LEFT?! My mom is hardly getting any sleep, cramped on that tiny loveseat every night and probably always waking up stiff and sore, when she hardly gets any sleep anyways because she's up almost all hours of the night and wakes up too damn early to comprehend. I've been kicked out of my own fucking bed and dumped onto an old and probably dirty couch, the only reason my brother's room never gets offered is because it stinks like whatever the shit he's smoking, IT'S JUST NOT POSSIBLE!
My dad tried to reason with my mom, telling her that his friend would take the couch and he would sleep in his room with him, Except he forgot about his snoring issues, and mom gets a rare small amount of sleep already!
His friend has his own fucking place to stay, I honestly don't know WHY he doesn't wanna be there for a whole shitting month, and I get that my dad's trying to help his friend out, but honestly?! This isn't a fucking story book, we aren't going to magically poof up a new place for someone to sleep! This is fucking REALITY and there is no fucking room!
But of course, if I told him any of this, i'd get the usual "oh you teenagers, think you know everything. You know everything while I know nothing at all." routine, which I am equally as tired of!
...
Okay... Done ranting...
