The first day on our vacation, and my parents already fought. Apparently my dad was subtly pushing my mother into the car so we could leave sooner. She just ended up yelling and getting in anyways. Later that day, she asked me to call her friend Pat, who was visiting here as well. Apparently, the tone of my voice, and the way that I talk is very annoying/irritating/rude, so she decided to make the mistake of doing her usual impressions of me. She made several exaggerated groaning sounds, and I opened my mouth and said, "That was a perfect mimic of me, really impressive and mature. Please do it again" To say the least, she flipped out. Kept telling me how ungratfeul I was as a son and a person.

When we finally reached York Beach, Maine; she got out of the car and proceeded to walk 16 miles to the motel we were staying at. Being their pathetic selves, my sister asked me to apologize, and my dad kept stopping in front of my mom's path so she could get in. She would just say smart-assed comments and keep walking. I insisted that we forget her and just go eat. We finally ate, and she came back to the room later and continued to make my sister cry and stuff.

Today was a lot better though. We spent the most of the day with Pat and Jim, and that made my mom shut her mouth. I am sunburned on my chest and forehead. crying We might end up leaving earlier than usual, because of the money problems.
