UGH

I'm seriously pissed.

So, Aaron bought me and him our homecoming tickets today and I was really excited and everything even though now I'm not sure if I really even want to go.

And a little while ago Hartley said he's going to the homecoming game on Friday, and Dad asked me about the dance, and then I told him it's Saturday from 9 to 11:30 or something, and he asks me what I'm going to wear, and I said "I could wear what I wore to th-" He groaned and said "This stuff takes planning" and then he told me I'm not going to go.

I shrugged it off and said "Fine, I really didn't want to go anyways."

A few minutes later, he asked me who was going and how much are tickets. I listed the people I knew who were going, and then the maybe people, and then I lied and said I don't know how much tickets are (because as far as Dad's concerned, I don't have a boyfriend or a ticket right now). I tried to tell him it doesn't matter I don't need to go. He didn't listen and told me to ask my friends what kind of dresses they're wearing and if they're going to dinner beforehand or whatever they're gonna do.

Caitlin's having a party beforehand that I'm invited to, but I just said "I dunno, I'll ask."

After awhile Dad asks about tickets again, and I say their fifteen dollars tomorrow and twenty on Friday, and I also told him about Caitlin's party. So he says that tomorrow after school he's going to Macy's or JC Penny with me to get a dress and a pair of nice little flats from Target (even though I INSIST on wearing my motorcycle boots to prove to everyone at that stupid school that I don't give a damn that I wear boots year-round) and that I should ask Caitlin if it's okay that I go to the beforehand party (even though I'm invited to come). I tried to tell him it's fine but he interrupted me and started raising his voice saying "YOU'RE NOT LISTENING TO ME" even though he's the one not listening to me.

So, now I'm basically forced to go to homecoming, now. All because my dad thinks I'm trying to make him feel guilty when I really don't want that. All I want is for him to be proud of my grades all year round and that's it.
