Change of the Generations

So if anyone hasn't noticed yet when our parents were kids, and now that we are kids there are huge differences. If not the biggest thing is technology, but also there is a change in how everyone acts. Like my step-dad who grew up in the Civil Rights period, like late 50s' or early 60s', well today he came into my room and told me we were going somewhere and to come on... Don't get me wrong, I don't mind going with him, but so we went out and did what we needed to do, but then when we came home he sent me out to Lowe's to get a screw and stuff for his toilet, well I got too small of a screw so I had to go back... Almost like I didn't have anything for me to do, or that I wanted to do. And granted that I wasn't really doing anything at the time... But still a 17 year old boy should have a little time to do stuff he wants while its his summer... Plus as I found out today, my school is starting at 9am next year! I get to sleep in more! Although it gets out at 4pm which means after track and XC it'll be like 6... but at least I'm only like 12 minutes from the school, and my dad will probably be home before me, so I'll have dinner waiting. And after I eat I'll probably do some stuff on my computer, and then I'll go watch some TV with my dad, and retreat to my man-cave at about 8pm in order to do whatever I have to do, and probably go to sleep at like midnight or maybe a little later. Oh yah but I need to drop AP Government, cause that is so not going to happen.

Peace.
