Moms Keeps It Real

my mom's reading profiles from okcupid:  "mkay, he says he's good at most things, no he's not." -- mom "what? that's fair, i think i'm good at most things." -- me "no you're not. you're not good at most things, linda, you're good at *some* things. and the things you're good at matter a great deal. but you are not good at most things. that's the problem with folks today telling babies they're special at everything they do. thats a lie. you're special because there is no other *you.*" -- mom

You Know the Answer Before the Question

When you were in the 3rd grade, one night you had some homework and you said, "I can't do this, I just don't understand." When I asked you to explain I could tell you were...well, bullshitting. You just didn't want to do it. 

I said, "Okay, well, we're going to do this together."

It was after dinner and getting late. 

"But it'll be past my bedtime."

"That's okay." 

"But then I'll be tired and can't go to school tomorrow." 

"Nope, you're still going to go to school." 

"But then you'll be tired and can't go to work. You'll be more tired than me because you're older than me." 

"Nope, little girl, you will always wear out before I do." 

I realize 30 years later that I've been having this conversation with you all your life. You want to test the waters, to see what your actual limitations are. Fortunately, I loved that and tried to foster it where you'd always do your work but you'd always question everything. That way you'd learn on your own that you had no limitations.

I remember that night. It was a book report. She's right, I wasn't confused at all, I just didn't feel like doing it.

You're Just Jealous

...because you don't have a Rainbow Brite doll. 

...because you don't have My Little Pony. 

...because you don't have a Glo-Worm when you go to sleep. 

...because you don't have pink barrettes in your hair. 

These are the things I'd declare to my mother when on time out.
