^A footnote to my note to Louie:
My LA days friend, of 'how dare you not know how inappropriate it is for an unmarried woman to come live with you for a week?'- (my mother, who else)-
- I pick her up at the airport tomorrow! I just
couldn't cancel on her. I like her a lot, drinking habit and all, plus she's a contact I can't afford to lose. I may one day decide it's time to put all these "typing" skills to use, again.
I told my mother she had cancelled. Now, when she finds out, I'll have to lie again, and say 'she would have lost the money if she didn't use the tickets'- which
may make the pragmatist that she is
shut the ef up.
Mom would be
so pithedoff if she knew I bought the tickets, myself!
I lie hardly ever, and don't like to. But ef it, I couldn't take the daily badgering after I told her in early December, and had to have peace.
It's four days she'll be here for a
visit, not a week.
I'm hoping to keep it under wraps til New Years Day, when I'll introduce them, bringing my mother over here.
I'm nervous!
I bet
your mama would be fine with it all.
Jealous
