Well.. my rooms a little on the messy side. It's a pretty small room seeing as it used to be our guest room before I was born, and I don't clean it as often as I should. At 20 years old, I should know better and act more my age. I understand that 100%. But do I do it? No. Can't even tell you why, to be honest. Maybe it's because after being at college all day (I commute), I just want to relax in my room. Maybe I'm just lazy. But I'm really not. I'm the most responsible out of all my friends, the most organized in school, etc., but I probably think I can keep putting my room off because it's not as important. Today, I came home from visiting my dad (my parents are divorced and I live with my mom and prefer it that way). My mom's a sweetheart, but, like all moms, can get on your nerves sometimes. I always help out, do errands for her, and all that stuff, but we get in fights once in a while because of petty things. Like my room, for instance. She just wants me to clean it, and I said that I would, but then she said something like, "Well maybe you would be better off living with your father because I don't like when we get in arguments over small things." My response was, "Oh, really? I love it." C'mon... I hate it just as much as she does. Then she'll say, "Well I'm just making a statement. Can't I do that?" I'll get frustrated over it. I won't yell, but you can clearly tell that I'm frustrated because I try to explain things, and it'll go around in circles, until she starts to say things to make me feel guilty. Things that I never said. And that frustrates me more.
Anybody else go through this? I just cleaned my room. Wasn't planning to do it until my day off tomorrow, but I did it tonight to get her to stop. Seriously, sometimes it's the first thing I hear from her in the morning when I'm still sleeping, and the moment I step in the door, again.. the same thing.
