"Mom, Dad, I'm willing to listen to your advice, and I'll accept your help if I feel I need it, but you WILL NOT make decisions for me on my behalf."
My dad's calling in about an hour. My dad, who recently told me to take the first two weeks of August off to go on a family vacation. Was already checking plane tickets. I'll see what I can do.
nope, no need to cancel I still have a years rent left.
I've got about nine months before I go bankrupt. Probably fewer, since I'll have to start repaying my loan during that time.

Can you get a deferrment? (Unemployment is a valid reason)
Happies to vw! Many ugly-but-tasty choco cake wishes to you!
{{P-C}} That is way over the line and I hope you let them know it.

Happy birthday, vw!!
Yeah, you've got it right. I can choose to stay here, but it would be all parent-defying and shit.
Personally, I think you *should* stay there and be all parent-defying. If you have to take a retail job to pay the rent, so be it, but stay there and tell your parents that their pulling this sort of thing has ensured you will NEVER move home if there is anything you can do to avoid it, including sleeping on friends' couches.
Heh. See, whereas I was thinkign "Oh, sure, Jilli's all "you loook great! You should be goth ALL the time!" seducing another one to the goth side..."
Cripes, are my motives that transparent?
(thinks about it)
Eh, they probably are.
Maybe you can take me on a real goth night sometime?
Yep! Come to Seattle, I'll cart you out to the clubs.
In other words was Johnny Cash a Goth Cowboy?
Mr. Cash wasn't actually goth, but is one of the forefathers of the current movement.
Goths going to club nights wearing black t-shirts and jeans are being LAZY, and should have all their music confiscated until they start behaving better.
((P-C))
That's just ... just ... how do they honestly even expect this to end? Cause I'm not sensing hugs and a yen to marry the girl they'll have all picked out.

Ooh, really? Awesome. I'll have to look into that if this week doesn't turn out to have the boffo job response it's supposed to (the KC job has a new hiring manager who's ready to start interviewing people, and he just got back today; the CT job was supposed to be get back to me in 1-2 weeks, and tomorrow will make it a month).

I'll try.
P-C, where is your quote from?
How about wearing black jeans and a black tank top and an ankh necklace and eye of horus eyeliner? Is that acceptable?
This is gonna be a big conversation, P-C. Try to stay calm, work out what you want to say beforehand if you can. Don't let your parents set the terms. Good luck.

Yeah, I don't know how this works, but I have many friends who have done it. In fact, that's my plan unless I find a job I really want that is conducive to mothering a small baby.
P-C's quote is from Dinosaur comics, the greatest thing you will read this week.
