hello, i love you.

…ahhh as parents we were so fond of the saying "One down, two to go!"  You know, got one kid out of the house.  Fly, be free, gooooOOoooOoo young child. But.no.  Tara’s.back.  back. with a mess trailing not too far behind her.  Think Linus, real life version.  Her & Markie are fighting over the attic rooms.  She wants to come back and dominate. Just dominate .EVERYTHING.  Her roommate/stalker has gone off the deep end –truly psycho. One day professes her love for her. Her LOVE mind you! Quick history–Shannon just got out of a 6 year relationship with Sergio, I believe she is just one of those types that <needs> the emotional attachment of a relationship, and with Sergio gone she is just projecting it all onto Tara. It’s a messy scene. Shannon texting even me & my friends, all hours of the day and night with bizzare shit like "How can I win Tara’s love" Oh for the love of GOD. Oh I dunno Shannon, for starters how ’bout we stop STALKING her everywhere she goes?  This is one drama I simply want to be excluded from. Oh and now Tara has a new boyfriend who has no job. He’s strange. The trying-to-hard type.  Wants us all to immediately love him. I predict he’ll be around for a hot five or six minutes.

I’m going to just stop trying to keep the house clean. The kids are working against me. The husband is working against me. Tara back leaving signature bowls of cereal around.  Today is the day I want to quit.beingamother.awife.theresponsibleone.  I’m quitting today.

Surely I cant be premenstral. I need to start keeping track of that shit.  I have that aggessive/angry/homicidal/mood swingy kind of feeling again. Maybe it is some new delightful thing you pick up when you are old.  Oh did I tell you my son told me "You are showing signs of aging mom" Just.like.that. Like a tv commercial spokesperson for anti-aging cream or something ‘signs of aging’ my ass! He said "Look, you have two wrinkles under your eyes"  I immediately threw him to the ground and gave him a wedgie.

So…we get to charge rent once they move back in dont we?
