Okay, the fact that you are paying them changes it alot. Yeah, I can see it kinda, you were just pissed off. I was under the impression that your parents still payed for everything. In that case, I still think your behaviour was uncalled for, but it makes a helluva lot more sense. So you pay like $800 for rent, utilities, food, clothes(maybe?), assorted luxuries (internet obviously, cable maybe, cellphone maybe). When do you get out of school, the middle of 07?

Your mom clearly doesn't think weed is bad, just that you smoke too much. If I were you, i'd be like, "Mom, I know you don't like me smoking pot, and I know you think I'm addicted. But I'm not, and I'm going to prove it to you. Here's some money for drug tests, I am going to go cold turkey. Heres my stash, I will go a month without smoking ANYTHING. Try to tell someone who smokes ciggarrettes to do that, it's not possible."

Hopefully she'll come around to it.
