It is time for a rant

Ok. Here goes. I got an e-mail from Donna yesterday in which she asked to start thinking of Christmas gifts. I responded that the only think I really want at the moment is an iPod. I got an email back saying that couldn't happen. "With four kids in the family, we try to keep things equal for all, and that wouldn't be fair for the others." Whaaaaa? The 20GB iPod is $299. If you only got me that it really isn't that much. Dad wants to get me one for graduation. That is really fucking practical. When I won't have lots of free time walking between classes or spending an hour on the metro every day where having an iPod would be stupendous. NOOOOOO! I was SOOOOOOOOOOO close to buying one for myself right before I left. I had/have the money. I will be in contact with Dad about this. It is so fucking ridiculous. Don't buy me an ugly sweater that I won't be able to return in France and just get me a fucking iPod, the one thing I have been wanting for a year. Don't lecture me about being fair either. Don't even get me started on that one! Fuckers! Unfair, illogical fuckers. It is just so fucking stupid. Oi. Ok. Done.
