My mom has started to give me the silent treatment because she thinks I don’t care about doing anything for Mother’s Day. And I guess ‘doing anything’ doesn’t mean giving her a card or a gift, but rather it means wasting my entire weekend going to the Bay Area just because she’s going down there for her mother. So apparently because I am not spending the whole weekend with her I don’t care.

This Saturday, which by the way is NOT Mother’s day, happens to be the day she is leaving while at the same time the day of Serena’s birthday party which both Becca & I were assigned to help organize. So because I’m spending my Saturday NOT going to the Bay Area, this automatically means I don’t care, and that Joshua is more important.

I’ve begun to notice a trend in the last few Mother’s Days with my mom’s behavior. Right around when this oh-so-lovey holiday comes up, she decides to act all, “Woe is me! No one cares about me!” She did it last year. I got her a present and woke up early to find it but seriously couldn’t. Instead of risking disappointment I left the house early to get her another present, which was a $50 gift card to her favorite clothing store. Well both my parents got all pissy towards me because I left early without saying anything.

Last night she was beginning with her silent treatment when I asked her what was up. She began to throw the pity party for herself, and I got really pissed. First off, for the past two weeks it has been nothing but school, homework, and work for me. Sundays are literally my only guaranteed day off. Every free moment that I have had between school and work I have used to write down ideas and work on her present. Not only that but I bought a friggin “I ♥ Mom” shirt for Christ’s sake! Yeah I really don’t care about Mother’s Day at all!

Thank goodness I will be kept busy for the next few days so I won’t have to deal with her emotional fuckwittage. Besides, her having this kinda attitude is not making the incentive to work on her present any easier.
