So, I'm getting mildly pissed at this point

I'm curbing a huge addiction, one that I was never necessarily told to cut out, but one that I felt would better me as a person, because I want to have something of a social life.

Well, why is it that not but two days after I quit, I try to go out and do something with my friends.... And all of them are busy? It's really kind of disheartening when you really think about it.

Yes, I'd try to go out on my own. The problem? My parents are making excuses again about me driving - essentially, not letting me just because my mom put a hole in one tire, so they put a donut on it and just haven't gotten around to fixing it, and are telling me I can't use the car until they fix it. The problem? After they blew the tire up, they bought a kind of expensive new living room set (and they are complaining about debt when our old one was just fine....)

It's really aggravating to me that my dad would continue to make excuses to not let me drive and basically keep me stranded at the house, and that everyone else is out doing shit but all I can do is sit around trying to keep busy when I've run out of things to keep busy with.
