My mother's overreaction to my going out of state with some friends this weekend. I never go anywhere. If I do, it's just to see family members that live here in town and even though I do love them. It can get awfully boring after a while. She's convinced that something bad is going to happen to me because she worries about everything when it comes to me. I just laughed it off and told her that she worries way too much and we are going to be fine.
The way I see it, even if something bad happened to me. (Worst case scenario: I die in one way or another in some freak accident). If it does occur, then so what? They better bury me with my Portia doll once my body is shipped back, that's all I'm saying.
I
seriously doubt that anything is going to happen. I've never done
anything in my life other than a six week trip to Ohio to go to a crappy trade school and that entire experience sucked. I want more out of my life than to look back on it when I am on my death bed and have nothing to show for it other than decades of wasted chances and inactivity.
She wants to "talk about it" tomorrow when we go to the grocery store. I think she's got it in her head that she can talk me out of doing this.
No chance of that. The only way I am not doing this is if my friend's car breaks down before the trip.
But it's funny to think about this and how silly her reaction is. I'm almost 40 for frigs sake. Well....chronologically speaking. Psychologically it's much younger than that some days.
She just worries too much and
really needs to relax.
