your talents will be recognized… in bed.

it seems my mom stayed on this side of the water sunday night. i got a call from her yesterday afternoon to tell me that she and cousin brenda wanted to take me out for dinner. my first thought, considering the state my head was in, was “no fucking way”. but, i’m a good daughter and said sure. as soon as i hung up the phone i took three extra-strength tylenol in hopes that would take the edge off the ache.
dinner was good. i managed to get them to agree to go to my favourite chinese restaurant. they were very pleased with the quality of the food and even more so with my picking up the tab. brenda seems nice enough. she thinks her daughter and i could be sisters. i hear that was a big topic of conversation at the last family reunion my mother attended.
i got home and didn’t do a lot. i was very much overfull from dinner and still a little headachy. i was also on a bit of an adrenaline buzz from the work i was doing for paige, so i was restless. i eventually got out the bad beginning and finished reading that. by the time that was done i was ready for bed.
my life is just so exciting i could puke.
