Since L'il Kim's song was blasting repeatedly on the airwaves as I made the trek back and forth from PA to NY, she gets to be the theme music for my return.
The last day at work was Friday. I wasn't expecting it, but my co-workers had a little cake and chocolate for me as I made my exit. Butter cream icing...can we say FAT?! But good.
So I'm back in NYC with my parents, and it's everything I knew it would be :-(. Mom greeted me with squawking about how friends will always disappoint you and I should have let her come and get me from PA *sigh*. The next day I drove back to PA to pick up the last of my stuff. I decided to take my brother to Wal-Mart (he loves the irony of the fact that you can buy guns, furniture and milk in the same place) and I also took him to some of my local neighborhood spots. I left PA at 5:15 and got back to Brooklyn at 7:20. I heard that in my absence, mom was squawking about how I must do things late at night all the time. Little did she know that while I was at Wal-Mart I did some grocery shopping for the house.
It's going to be a very long 6-8 months here.
Lifestyles of the poor and nameless

Welcome to Brooklyn....put your lighters up!
Dee's two cents:
*Sigh*
you really need to work on your guilt trip skills with Mom.
Do you buy her presents by the way? This is a great way to create emotional debt on her part.
I got my Mom a just because present (a book she wanted). She just about melted into a happy little puddle. I mean I got it for her because I love her, and want her to have it, but it comes with fringe benefits. I can always play the much-maligned, longsuffering daughter card.
