So, I think my mom has finally hit the age of menopause and she's fucking driving me crazy... I never, ever thought I would utter those words, but right now I can't stand to be home.  She's been very snappy and opinionated lately, and yelled at me for buying lunch today. Grrr.... if only I had someone else here besides Will, and my sister would ( Read more... )
