@jacobgrey: wow, your parents sound crazy. My mom usually says don't bother wasting money on a card XD Her birthday was last week and we were throwing her a surprise bday party, but it got cancelled. I also realized I forgot to get her a gift so that's still coming in the mail. She ain't mad we didn't do anything, also with the virus, it was understandable, but still, I've never seen her get mad over not doing something. I always find it crazy when people get mad when you actually do something.


Totally behind on my reading. I went to go read yesterday since I had time...I took a nap instead.

Wow. I just...can't fathom what was going through your mom's mind to be so upset about that. Like? Why? Upset at a child. For not giving her a card at a specific time. Wow, that's a new level of petty for me.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. :(

Oh wow, jacob, that's horrible! That's kind of narcissistic of her...


I'm behind with reading. Trying to catch up with that Pink Mouse, but dang, it's so messed up x.x I get that it's a lot of Russian society references and beurocracy and other metaphors for how crazy the world is etc. but the absurd is on a whole new level. To the point I'm wondering if the author is a genius or a junky
I'm halfway through but I'm seriously craving a nice book I can understand completely and could just breeze through This one seems to be the kind you will think on for months until you finally get it XD

I love that you're feeling better and better without her around
I felt great without my sister, then she came back and now I'm a mess again...


You know what's funny? The same day I wrote that, I went to read on and bam! There was a dialogue between characters about how one of them wanted to write a book about their adventures, that the book will be titled Pink Mouse (duh) and it shall be a work on a writer's writing process and the whole thing will be hapenning in the author's head (duh).
I got super relieved because now I knew for sure this book's a mess on purpose and it's supposed to look like a terrible first draft. Now I don't have to feel bad about thinking it's bad writing, because I've been told by many authors that every first draft is bad writing XD

That sounds like a horrible experience with your mum, jacob!!
Unbelieveable that she acted like that when you were just a child.
But she reminds me a bit of my mum

I am doing good with my reading, I am about 5/6 through a book in German, it's called 'Letzter Bus nach Coffeeville'.

I honestly don't understand parents who are like that? What's the point on having children if you're always going to treat them disrespectfully? Especially if you're an adult with your own life.

Finally convinced myself to read tonight and got to almost halfway through the book. I would read more but I had to go let the dogs outside and sleeping sounds so good. I've been super tired all the time again lately.
