Mom

My Mom has a predilection for gross hyperbole - especially when she's playing the part of a sainted, much-blighted martyr.

One of these days I am going to lose my temper and shout at her. She's pissing everyone in the house off. I'll call home almost every day, asking if they need dinner. I'm go and get stuff which everyone uses, like toilet paper. I'll do her whatever small favours she asks, and usually almost immediately.

And just now, because I got tired of repeating myself for the goddamned 4th fucking time, SHE got huffy because I said nevermind. Said it was irritating. Said I treated her shabbily. WTF?

Well! If you'd bloody PAID ATTENTION instead of walking around the house whilst having a conversation, you'd actually hear what was fucking being said?


Yeah, one of these days my temper will burst and there'll be a fucking almighty row.
