Talk to your mom lately?
I was up late yesterday, just like the rest of the weekend - which was good, by the way. Dan came down from Louisiana and we had dinner at Papasito's (how on earth do you spell it?) along with Elliot and Corey. I also took advantage of the fact that he had a car, and got some stuff I was missing from the storage place. I actually have a usable comforter now...
Like I was saying though, I was up late yesterday... and I got a call from my mom at 2 am. We talked for about 25 minutes. Personally, I don't know how they keep up with the telephone bills at this rate. Telephone calls halfway around the world certainly aren't cheap. Anyhow, we talked about the usual - college, classes, whether I've been doing my laundry or if I've been secretly sleeping with random freshmen girls - so maybe she didn't actually say it but you just know she was hinting at it.
What's interesting (and perhaps ironic) though is that after a year of living on the other side of the Atlantic as my parents, I seem to have a much better relationship with them. We're a lot more open, frank and honest with each other than before - and no shouting matches! It's not the kind of thing I think about usually but that conversation reminded me that I do owe them a lot for any number of things, not the least of which is the fact that they're paying me through college.
There's no point to this really, I just thought I'd mention it because it's something I've been thinking about lately. So this blog post is officially dedicated to mom and dad - even though chances of them reading it are minimal. (And let's keep it that way, shall we?)
