“When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you’re not here, I can’t go to sleep. Praise God for those two insomnias! And the difference between them.” -Rumi

We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people. — “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” April 16, 1963

Respect your haters. They are the ones who think you are better than them. -Unknown

You don’t understand, no-one does. When a woman makes the choice to marry, to have children; in one way her life begins but in another way it stops. You build a life of details. You become a mother, a wife and you stop and stay steady so that your children can move. And when they leave they take your life of details with them. And then you’re expected move again only you don’t remember what moves you because no-one has asked in so long. Not even yourself. You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you. -Francesca, Bridges of Madison County

is it June yet?

14 May, 2006 /

My mom didn’t answer the phone all day! I tried calling that butthead 4 times today and she DID NOT PICK UP HER PHONE!

It was a ‘I want my mommy’ day today too. I thought we had all our ducks in a row all week long so we would have a great Mother’s Day and the morning started out with the need of a Xanax.

I tried calling my mom in the morning, but she didn’t answer. When I realized my day wasn’t going to get any better I snuck out to call her at my sister’s house thinking she would be over there, but she wasn’t.

Later in the day when I was the height of my irritation I called my mom…and she didn’t answer.

Thank you everyone for the Mother’s Day wishes. Next year will be better. right?
