Stuck At Home

I was supposed to go to the Nexus(a super-cool arcade at the mall) today with a bunch of my friends(guys cuz there aren't enough girls that play video games), but I never got to because (cliche teenager problem) my dad sucks. I told him and at the beginning of the week my plans for today, and he just told me Thursday I could go. Yesterday I was all happy cuz I haven't hung out with friends for a while and I've been down and lonely lately. Today, I got up and started finishing up the chores from yesterday to find someone fixing the computers-which wasn't part of the plan for today(my dad's overprotective and HAS to supervise me when I go out, especially with guys). I told him that Mikey was coming around 2:30 to go to the Nexus with us. He said it'd take about 4hrs to finish. I was a little annoyed cuz that meant they'd be done around 3:30. But I lived and called Mikey and told him I'd call again when he could come over. So, 2 rolls around and I hear my dad say to the guy that if my plan has room, he'd bring the guy to a buffet around 6. Now, I live about 15minutes from the place, and Mikey lives about the same distance from my house. So, 3:30 plus half an hour equals 4:00 by the time we get there. Then we'd have to leave a bit earlier so Mikey's mom could pick him up from our house, so subtract 15 minutes from the 2hrs we'd have to hang out(I only see Mikey on Tuesdays, btw for Jesus School). So, 1hr 45min isn't really enough to hang out on a Saturday; it's barely even a class period. So, I told him I was switching my plans to next weekend, which won't even work since we're picking my mom up from the airport next weekend. Then he got offended by this for some reason and I got really pissed and went off on him about how no matter how early I make my plans like he tells me to(I told him this plan last weekend and made sure he didn't forget over the week) nothing ever goes to my promised plan around him. He's always changing plans to what he wants even though he promises me I could do what I want. This situation's always repeated; always finding a way for me to stay at home. Last year, my friend Missy and I made plans to meet at the mall and my dad said it was okay. Well, when that day came he was out so I told Missy I'd be a bit late(she called asking where I was since I was already there). So, I wait another hour and call dad-he said he'd be home soon. Waited 2hrs and Missy calls to say she's leaving(She's been there 3 or 4hrs alone just walking around). After we hang up, my dad comes home another hour later and asks if I'm ready to go. I said she already left and he said "Oh, that's not very nice" then he goes onto the computer...I can't wait til I'm 18.

Sorry for the complaining, but I really needed to get stuff off my chest.
