Subject: my mother
|
||
|
|
||
|
i have come armed with a complete example of why my mother is so stupid.
|
||
|
|
||
|
school starts tomorrow. she wants me to go out and get supplies today. my
|
||
|
sunbird is in the shop. my buick is missing the rear window, thereby having
|
||
|
a large hole in the roof. she is gone with her car, my father is gone with
|
||
|
his car. that leaves a scooter/moped and my bicycle. i decide that i will
|
||
|
go out in the buick to get school supplies. when i walk outside, i see that
|
||
|
it is completely overcast and there are a few low-hanging dark clouds. i,
|
||
|
being the aged and wise person that i have grown to be, decided that it
|
||
|
looked as if it were about to rain.
|
||
|
|
||
|
my mother comes home.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"did you do _anything_ you were supposed to?"
|
||
|
|
||
|
i told her that i shaved. i was also supposed to call the barber for an
|
||
|
appointment, possibly for today, but decided that i had too many things to
|
||
|
do today, so i didn't call him. she was not happy about this, and argued
|
||
|
that i could fit it in. i said it wasn't important, then she asked later if
|
||
|
she should call and make an appointment.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"sure. but not for thursday, i'm working then."
|
||
|
"thursday?! i'm talking about today!!"
|
||
|
"i told you i didn't want an appointment for today."
|
||
|
"you never get anything done. bla bla bla bla." <slams door>
|
||
|
|
||
|
so. anyway. i then say that i didn't go out and get supplies because it
|
||
|
looked as if it was going to rain. she gets very angry.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"WELL. YOU must have been looking THIS MORNING because the sky is perfectly
|
||
|
clear and the sun is shining bright. you have NO excuse to have not gone
|
||
|
out and gotten school supplies."
|
||
|
"my buick has no rear window. if it were to rain --"
|
||
|
"if it was going to rain, you wouldn't get that wet. and if you're so
|
||
|
concerned about it, why don't you just walk or take your scooter?"
|
||
|
|
||
|
<i don't even touch the stupidity of this fucking comment.>
|
||
|
|
||
|
i walk upstairs to look outside. it is still completely overcast with
|
||
|
little, low-hanging, dark-gray clouds looming.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"oh yeah, mom, it's completely sun-shiny and happy. look at this. it's
|
||
|
completely overcast. WHY would you LIE about that?"
|
||
|
|
||
|
<my mother HATES being called a liar.>
|
||
|
|
||
|
"ARE YOU CALLING ME A LIAR?"
|
||
|
"you just completely lied about something pointless to try and prove your
|
||
|
non-existant point!"
|
||
|
"LISTEN HERE. YOU NEVER EVER CALL ME A LIAR EVER AGAIN. I AM _NOT_ A LIAR.
|
||
|
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WOULD EVEN SAY SUCH A THING."
|
||
|
|
||
|
<she continues to mumble and moan and groan as i avoid her and go
|
||
|
downstairs. she will, for the next 10 minutes, open the basement door, yell
|
||
|
something inane and stupid at me, and then SLAM the door really hard. this
|
||
|
will happen 4 or 5 times within the following 10 minute period. then she
|
||
|
will come downstairs, sit on the stairs, and with a syrupy-sweet voice, say
|
||
|
something else to try to get my goat, and then act like she was just asking
|
||
|
very nicely. i play along with this argument for a while, and then ignore
|
||
|
her, because she's doing this for herself. she needs to do this. i'm only
|
||
|
here as a prop. that's why i gave her a lego-man one time. i told her to
|
||
|
take out all of her frustration on him, not me. it didn't work. he just
|
||
|
sits on top of the microwave doing nothing all the time. lucky stiff.>
|
||
|
|
||
|
i bought one of those Tyco Lego-phones at the salvation army yesterday.
|
||
|
it's rad. i always wanted one when i was a kid. well, sort of. i always
|
||
|
preferred cordless phones, so no matter how cool a phone was, if it wasn't
|
||
|
cordless, i considered it to be useless.
|
||
|
|
||
|
hey hey.
