The last one in particular.

I just got off the phone from a very interesting conversation. Now I'm in a very troubled state however, unsure of how to proceed. Long story short, there's a good teaching opportunity back in NYC that I'd be a strong candidate for, and most people I know would be ecstatic at this turn of events, but I'm not sure I want to move back to New York.

How much will you get paid? This is all that matters.

Dear blog thread,

August cannot come soon enough! Just a few of the things my mother has freaked out about (meaning yelled at me and been pissed off for at least 2 hours afterwards), in the last 2 weeks:
- I forgot to water the plants. They'd been watered 4 days earlier, so it's not like they were going to drop dead any time soon.
- I carried a chair (that just so happens to belong to the dining room set) downstairs to the dining room, from the attic, because I assumed it belonged there. It didn't. So I said "Okay, it's not like it was a problem.." and carried it upstairs again. She kept yelling.
- My brother and I were sprawled on the couch, which left little room for her to sit when she got home from work, and I happened to sigh before I sat up to give her some space. Major freakout.
- I checked the opening hours of the bank online for her, and she went there after work. Apparently, they close half an hour earlier during the summer, and hadn't updated their websites. This was somehow my fault. I drove her across town to another branch that has longer opening hours, and she was stille pissed off.
- I took a glass of Pepsi Max after having helped out in the garden, because it was the only cold thing we had, aside from water, and I'd worked for 2 hours. Bad idea.
- I wasn't thrilled about some new candlesticks she purchased, so I answered "I guess" when she asked if I liked them. Not enthusiastic enough and grounds for more bitching.
- I asked if it would be possible for me to watch the semifinals in the Euro 2008 in the living room, seeing as I don't have a TV in my room here. Bad idea. Apparently this means I only think about myself and my wants/needs, and that I was chasing her out of her own home.
- I made a salad for dinner, and didn't make any dressing, because I don't like it and no one had asked me. Wrong choice.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, because it truly is ridiculous and somewhat laughable, but oh, so frustrating. Also, a C on an exam I feared I might've failed is pretty cool.

I think you know where this is going, Joe...

Suck the next nine dicks you see.
