dinner table lingo

hullo. my brother is going to see the new James Bond downtown tonight. my parent's are probably going out to my aunt's place. and i'm gonna be here. doing any of the following: 1. play video games 2. watch movies 3. go on computer 4. start studying social for once.

all are very likely except number 4. it would be ideal, but everything thats good for me, i usually subconsciously avoid.
i am so paranoid when i listen to my music loud. i'm always worried someone's gonna call me from outside my room and i won't be able to hear them. and then my mom will spaz. and practically break down my door 'cause it's always locked. well, actually, things used to work that way. now she just calls my cell phone.

i realized something sad. my family is really distant. like, really. i'm always in my room, my brother's never home, my dad's always outside, and my mom's always in the living room/kitchen. and we rarely talk. like, we do. we have dinner together usually, and that's when it's nicest. we usually have debates about stuff. for example, tonight everyone was here including my brother. and the news was on, and it was something about George Bush. and my brother started talking about how stupid he is. and here's how our conversation went:
Christine: why does everyone hate George Bush? it's stupid. it's like the new fad to hate George Bush.
Daniel: what do you know. do you know how many mistakes he's made?
Christine: first of all, he's a president. and that's probably hard enough without people bashing him left, right and center. plus, i'm sure you would make a few mistakes if you were a president too. there's always gonna be people who disagree with decisions made. (i really sounded like i knew what i was talking about).
Daniel: ok, that's true, but he keeps making the same mistakes over and over.
Christine: thats not true.
Daniel: ok, since you seem to know so much about what's going on in US government, prove your case.
Christine: umm.. well.. he's probably got, like, a ton of pressure on him.. i'm sure you'd mess up too a couple times.
Daniel: so you have no proof?
Christine: no. well, yes i do. i do have proof. it's called human nature. people tend to mess up when a lot of pressure is put on them.

...and so on. of course, Daniel ended up winning. simply because he's older. and i know nothing of the world around us haha. then we all had a big conversation on what my brother's going to do for his 21st birthday.
Mom: so what are you planning to do for your birthday?
Christine: yeah, it's a Saturday.
Daniel: i dunno. probably nothing.
Christine: that's the way to go.
Mom: are you sure? we could order pizza, i could make chicken wings and you could have some people over if you want.
Daniel: yes! of course. it'll be just like in junior high.
*Christine and Daniel roll eyes at each other*
Christine: you're gonna be 21. YOU'LL BE LEGAL IN THE STATES!
Mom: so what ar you gonna do?
Christine: no, see, this is what has to happen. we'll invite like 200 people, shove them in the basement. serve some alcohol. get everyone drunk. possibly sell some Ecstacty pills...
Mom: yeah. ok.

wow. we actually discussed a ton of stuff at the dinner table. my brother left first, even after i pleaded him to stay seated and share every detail of his life with us, just like my mother was asking. and then she got mad at me.

but anyways. my parents just left. OMG. you know what that means?? i'm home alone. and it's Friday night. ..

and do you know what Friday nights by myself mean??
no, nothing rated R.

i'll just be back in a secondddddd. HA. what a coincidence. the song playing on my computer right now is Jealous of Your Cigarette. wow. i love you, computer.
