God, but I'm tired
Had lunch with the Paternal Unit again, and listened to more badgering about my finances for an hour and a bit. It's become a daily thing now, ever since he discovered that I'd miscalculated my finances for last month. I have the duty and honour now to listen to him tell me how much I suck every day of the week, several times a day usually.
He also seems to expect me, within a span of less than 24 horus each time, to come up with a solution to all my problems that will satisfy him. When I don't he tells me to "stop acting like a baby" and grow up. Easier said than done when he talks to me like a five-year-old.
I'm not sure what to do. Part of me wants to tell him to shove it, that I don't want his help or his money anymore, and to go get a loan somewhere to tide me over until I can get a job. Then I could happily cut off ties with both my parents, since dealing with them every day makes me want to perform hara kiri with a wooden spoon. Problem is, I have no idea how that's supposed to work. Besides, no bank in their right mind would ever give me a loan since I have no job.
Christ, what a mess.

Re: advice?
Thanks.
I wish your advice could work in this case, but the problem is that my father is in fact an extremely intelligent man (far moreso than I am, in any case), and he can tell when I'm doing that. :P
I just have to sit and grit my teeth and bear it, is all.
