I’m actually starting to feel a little sorry for myself.

I mean, when this whole Embargo thing started, I was protesting. I was The Angry Young Woman. As a matter of principle I didn’t WANT to giggle. But now, five long days into the protest, I realize the horrible truth of the matter. My parents Just Aren’t Funny.

I can’t blame them I guess. Dad’s running around all stressed out over law school finals. He’s up at all hours of the night studying his law school subjects: Constitutional Law, Rules of Evidence, Battle Star Gallactica. I hope he does well on his finals, he’s worked so hard. Mom is working three jobs: Me, her regular day job, AND everything else around the house that Dad’s too busy to get to. I’m dealing with two major party poopers is what I’m saying.

Anyway, no giggles out of me this week. Maybe things will pick up when Dad finishes finals. Until then, I reluctantly continue the protest.
