Okay, it’s been 27 hours and I’m going nuts.
I’m trying very hard to be patient and kind and a good daughter and all that crap, but it’s hard. Very, very hard. If I had internet access I could at least escape momentarily and feel connected with the rest of the world, but the installation fucked up – I’m only online right now because I’m tethering my iPhone (which is pretty frickin’ cool). I managed to go for a scooter ride earlier this afternoon, but as glorious as it was, it’s not enough. I’m lonely and my mom is driving me crazy and I’m annoyed that the internet isn’t working and GRAHHHHH. Ed was supposed to come out for the weekend so at least I could have some fun, but now he’s not. I was going to try to go home on Saturday so at least I could be at home for 1 day before going back to work, but mom apparently can’t drive herself around for THREE WEEKS – I don’t know what we’re going to do. Everything sucks. I think I’ll go have some ice cream.
I also learned that my mother is a crazier cat lady than I am. I am scared of my future.

You oughta be, but at least your mom has you to help her out.
If you get a chance to go on another getaway scoot, may I recommend a trip to the UVic campus to visit the bunnies? Feeding bunnies can be very stress relieving. :)
yeah, this town is boring. Nothing fun. Whee.
This sounds like the kind of blog post I would write while visiting my mom (except she reads my blog, so I can’t)…. I too fear for my future after being around her for a while. I’ve started apologizing to my husband-like-person already for my inevitable behaviour. Hopefully the dad genes will be more powerful as we age?
i am dealing with some mama drama (dra-mama?) myself … my solution is also ice cream.
