imaginary boyfriend

i think my parents think i'm seeing someone behind their back. the things they ask do seem to hint at the fact they think i have a boyfriend.

a few weeks ago i met up with a family friend they know. the weekend that followed mum and dad came into town. dad asked, "so who did you meet up with on wednesday? what did you do? where did you go? who else was there? what did you eat?" i mean, those weren't typical *tell me about your day* type questions.. he was interrogating. either his skills at being inconspicuous are getting worse as he gets older or i'm just getting smarter.

last week i bought a bunch of lilies and random flowers from the grocery store to stick on the kitchen table. it's something i have a tendency to do randomly since it's easier to take care of cut flowers that are expected to die eventually than potted plants. plus i like lilies. anyway, dad flew into town thursday night and didn't notice the flowers until friday. he called me at work, "who gave you flowers?" *slaps forehead*

this past weekend i caught mum going through a couple of my drawers at random times. she used excuses like, "i was looking for a hairband.." (even though there was one right in front of her on the counter of of my dresser).

i'd be super annoyed by this if i weren't so amused by the fact my parents intuitions are TOTALLY off. it almost makes me want to pretend as if i'm trying to date someone inconspicuously just to see how they continue to react. unfortunately that would be far too mean of me.. perhaps i'll save that for an april fool's joke :)
