Would someone like to explain to me why it is that we have this (what at times seems to be uncontrollable) need to drag others into our drama. Take the last 24 hours for instance.
Last night I went with a friend to the title basin at the foot of the Jefferson Memorial; after spending the late evening at a concert for the Army Jazz Band, and the earlier part of the day on the national mall for the weekly tradition. I wanted to go down there and see the fish late at night. The two of us passed the time talking feeding fish talking to random people in the area and just enjoying each others company. So today I get up and a girl that I have been really interested in emails me. To get to the point it has been great.
So Mom calls and leaves a message. I call her back to get a – you don’t respect me speech. To add more to it I get the “you don’t respect anything that I have ever done for you speech.” All of this comes at the foot of some conversation she has had with her husband about how much the he and I email. FYI - we have emailed each other less than 11 times in the last 365 days. Which if you do the math means we have emailed each other once ever 33.18 days. I email someone every month and that means that I am not respecting my mother.
It would have just been easier if she had called and told me to fuck off and then hung up. But I guess that doesn’t feel as good. God I hate drama!!!!
Quote of the day - I never played by the rules and I never really cared, cuz my nasty reputation takes me everywhere.
