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

Holy Shit, it worked!

22 September, 2006 /

My sister called me this morning as I am dropping off the kids to school. Keep in mind, I am not awake while I am driving my kids to school. My eyes are open and I am driving, but not awake.
“You are dead to me. DEAD I SAY!” If it didn’t say, “Sisser Ween” on my caller ID, I would have no idea who was calling me and threatening me.
“Why? What did I do now?” and then I remember, “Oh because I posted a picture of you passed out with underwear on your head?”

It worked though, My mom and sister are coming down. Either to hang out or kick my ass. I don’t care, THEY ARE COMING HERE TO SEE ME.

Good thing, because next week I was going to post this picture.
