the storms last night were intense but over quickly. i freaked out and carried m to the center of the house. this morning i'm actually in a good mood. it's no longer 87 degrees and humid for one thing. i think i ticked off the neighbors who'd lost their tree in the middle of the street. unfortunately for them, i'm from the internet, where even bad things aren't bad, they're awesome. i guess i wasn't exactly exuding enough sympathy at 7 in the morning. (do i ever exude sympathy?) in my head i was thinking "let me see if i can tabletop that tree with my bike like in california games", but my friend informed me that i need to bring my analogy up-to-date with something like "grind it like in tony hawk".
a wanted help with her taxes. my mom suggested i tell her to go screw an accountant. <3 mom.
i guess i was a dick when we spoke yesterday about it too, she said "are we going backwards?" and my reply was "we are going nowhere". i guess my change of mood was brought about by her email signature.. this just pissed me off to no end:
