I picked my mother up from the airport today. Laguardia is a bitch.
We're meeting on new territory this time and were trying to interact in new ways. We've drawn up new rules of play: I won't perform the role of daughter and she won't perform the role of mother.
I introduced her to my favorite indian restaurant and I smoked my cigs in front of her. She bought a bottle of wine on the way home. Now my accent is coming out and i use terms like britches and whirly-gig. We're talking about old lovers and she's confessing her past girl-crush on Rachel Mclish. Were trading secrets and with every one she becomes more human. If the rest of the week goes like this is would be beyond my wildest expectations.
Now shes on the phone with her sister, recieving bad news, and I hope to hell it doesn't ruin it.

I'm insulted you couldn't say britches with me. My middle name is Britches.

It makes me happy to hear that yo are able to reconnect with your mom and really show her who you are now. Especially when your able to smoke in front of her - that shit is huge- My mom knows I smoke but I can never smoke in front of her now. I hope it all goes well
