Really the best thing to do is swallow some pride and help your dad, but find a point to draw the line if you two are clashing, remember you can walk out of the room if it gets too heavy. Hopefully you two will get along better afterwards.

Tree update:
Cutting down my Grandma's tree was successful, the tree survived the trek up to the capitol building. It weighed 10 tons (if I remember correctly) and was so huge they had to close the freeway because it took up all 4 lanes. The fire department had to be called in to deal with power lines that had to be moved since the tree couldn't fit under them. There was a motorcade of 10 motorcycle policemen that escorted the tree from my Grandma's house up to the capitol.
Pic's or it didn't happen? Oh look, I have some!
Anyway....I'm still...sad that it's actually gone. I've never been to my Grandmother's house with out that tree looming over everything. I used to hide in the banches playing hide and seek with my brother and cousins. I may post a couple more pictures, but...there you go.

Thank you!
It still is pretty cool, so the 'love it' is okay. =^^= It's being decorated next Monday, I'll probably post pic's of that, woot!
LittleKagsin Did you say this was in Idaho?
Idaho, but I lost her.
AshburnerX Something I've had to remind myself of in the past while helping family members: You hurt those you love the most. I know it sounds cliche...but basically when yo're scared or in pain you treat those closest to you like shit because they are the ones that won't abandon you, even when you are at your worst.
There are limits but try hard to remind yourself of that.

Damn, that's not a tree. That's an Ent!Tree update:

Holy shit! I just ordered a basic meal deal at McDonald's and it cost $6. Hell not 3 years ago it was $3.
I'll have to tell my uncle that I know where the state's Christmas tree came from. He and his family live in/around Meridian and they own a nursery and landscaping company.
There was a flash mob at my school today. A bunch of people were falling on the ground shaking to simulate nerve gas. Huh.
That's awesome! Yep, you can for sure tell him.
That doesn't sound fun at all.
Sounds like one of my nightmares. :I
Yeah, especially since its almost winter. They just layed on the ground shaking it up for several minutes. I think it was for one of the theater classes or something, cos other wise I wouldn't see why anyone would volunteer for this.
There were a bunch of people filming it, I wonder when I'll see it on Youtube. I can imagine the comments now....not giving any examples just saying I can imagine them.
Also, the following is an excerpt from a conversation I overheard "Black Friday isn't a real holiday? I thought it was." Didn't say anything to them at all. Mostly because the way its so hyped I can understand the confusion. Still funny though.

Bah.
I was waiting for you to weigh in.
I like our Icelandic tourists accents as well...and they are quite friendly. It basically the same thing, right?
Haven't been on Facebook in nearly a week. Kinda thinking about just deleting it.
I think I failed to troll North_Ranger.
I was hoping he's jump on the Iceland comment, then I could comment that Iceland is basically the same as Norway which is basically the same as Denmark which is basically the same Finalnd which is basically the same as Sweden thus disgusting him and I could apologize in some way.
I suck at trolling...even if it isn't really a troll.
I just wanted to name countries.

You didn't fail. It's just he can't talk to you because he's busy swimming across the ocean to murder you.I think I failed to troll North_Ranger.

You should have thrown in a sauna pants quip. That always gets him riled up. Or make fun of saunas.
I was trying to aim for friendly ribbing...not justifiable homicide.
Well, comparing Finns to Swedes or Danes will get him just as angry
I know. I loooooove him...I wanted to play.He's kind of short-tempered all around, really.
Now he is gone offline..and I am alone. Now who will I fake cross cultural denseness with?
