I dont talk much about my personal life on here, and I try to avoid any mention at all of my family. But sometimes... they just get to me. My parents in particular. For the last month they have been fighting over a GPS system my mother bought for our trip to Germany. My father is outraged that she spent 1000$ on it and accessories for it, and cant quite get past the price of the thing. My mother thinks it will be usefull. My father keeps trying to make ME deside if we should return it or not. So the other weekend I went through everything and sorted them into Return and Keep piles. Most of the extranious accessories were to go back, keeping the main uint, power cable, software and memory card, all we realy needed.
I thought I had solved the issue.
Well today, exausted, cold, hungry and sore, I come home from a long day of work, class, and toil, to the same argument. My father wants me to go over the map and travel book, and see if we really need to GPS. RIGHT NOW. When I say no, he changes subject and hands me a letter from my shrink, which has my new apointment card for a change of apointment, and then procedes to question me what it is. He doesnt want them charging us any more, and is paranoid about it. He then changes the subject to our insurance, and how my shrink isnt on the insurance any more (at least at the moment).
And then he presses me to change doctors, or quit going, or something.

....


What on earth has gotten into my parents?
