Out of left field, she breaks down into a 15 minute sob fest on everything wrong with her life.

Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink.

After a few hugs, I left her room.

I am moving out until she is 18. I don't think I'll survive the next several years.

Word.

(Truly, I feel your pain. The Girl has been like this for the past six months).
