an email

Wednesday I was minding my own business and doing dishes when my dad came in and started screaming at my brother about some coolant thing he left somewhere sometime or something, then turns to me and out of the blue starts screaming about something that happened 2 days before, "AND YOU! WHEN I CALL 'GIRLS!' DON'T ANSWER!! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR VOICE! IT MAKES ME SICK! AND STAY THE HELL OUT OF MY BATHROOM! YOU'RE SCRATCHING UP THE TOILET SEAT!" and my mom was standing right there and didn't say anything. They always share the same opinion, and usually it's her who states it, but they seem quite unified as far as horrible parenting goes.

so I decided to spare their stomachs and not speak to them anymore, but felt the need to let them know what's going on this weekend and what's been happening, so I sent my mom an email:


Since my voice apparently makes you and dad sick and you don't want to hear it, I only hope you check your email before I have to leave. Tonight (Friday) I'm going to Mary's or hanging out with her for a while. I'll be ready to go to work tomorrow at 11 and I'll be going to my dentist appointment at 3 today as well.

I had been planning to go to ICC yesterday for some time now, and I've done this many times before. I don't go to school when I go, but usually it falls on a Friday. I already cleared it with my teachers well in advance so it's not a big deal as far as that goes, and will not drop my grades from As.

Wednesday my class left me to go to Schoolcraft which I had no way to get to (because I was absent Monday and therefore couldn't set up a ride, and I went to the bean). While I was there, a man named Clint was working on the wireless network and having a problem with Macs getting IP addresses. He theorized that Linksys products take longer than the Mac timeout time to relay DHCP to a secondary server (the networks are very similar there and here) and I talked with him about what might be the problem. After I left, mike asked what an A+ certification would get someone, and Clint said it would get them their first job, and that he was looking for some entry level technicians to work for his company, Coretek services. Mike told Clint that I'm A+ certified and Clint gave Mike his card to give to me. I have emailed him my resume; I'm still in the process of playing phone tag with him and am going to ask him if he would like a remote technician in the Ann Arbor area (Coretek is based in Milford, which I couldn't really live in). My job opportunities have greatly increased since the beginning of my transition and this is making me a whole lot happier, in spite of the difficulties you present by using it as an excuse to make things more difficult for me. You are the only one making this really difficult. I still consider it worth it though. I do not want to push you away because of it, but I must be myself. It would be really sad if you could never come to accept me for who I am and subsequently push me away. Already you don't want to hear my voice. I hope it doesn't go much further than that.

Love,
Me

she read it tonight and had yet to respond
