Another installment of my pointless blog, that no one will ever read. Do you ever have the feeling that mothers just don't get you? I suppose I'm starting to sound like one of the millions of spoilt teenagers, but that's not exactly what I mean. They seem to take offence to everything you say...and they don't bother clarifying, they just take everything to mean what they feel it should mean. And Heaven forbid you ever try to get a word in to defend yourself while you're being talked at (let's not kid ourselves, there is no two-way discussion with a mother), because then you're being defensive, and that's just not on, oh no. You've got to just stand there and talk it all. With a very sorrowful expression on your face, as well. If you even hint at the fact that you're feeling the slightest bit of an emotion other than regret, God help us all.
Then sometimes you get the "I'm sensing a change in your attitude" talk. What the hell? Why don't you MENTION something about it beforehand, in one of the several weeks leading up to this discussion, because apparently "...it's something I've noticed for a while now..." How the FUCK am I meant to know that? I'm not doing this on purpose, you know. I'm not a bastard to you, I never have been, so what makes you think, for one minute, that all of a sudden I've decided that I will be? TELL ME THIS SHIT BEFORE YOU FLY OFF THE HANDLE AND TRY TO MAKE ME FEEL BAD ABOUT SOMETHING THAT I HAD NO IDEA I WAS EVEN DOING!
Christ, I really do sound like a whiney bitch, don't I? That's something else that annoys me: why am I still treated like a child? Every store I go into, every person I meet, treats me like I still walk down the street holding my mother's hand. I'm 18 for Christ's sake, treat me like an adult! I spent 8 months at ADFA being treated like shit, I come back into civillian life only to feel as though everyone that sees me immediately labels me as a mama's boy.
Stairway to Heaven is doing a pretty good job of calming me down. I think I'll leave it at that.
