is it weird that i have no sort of attachment to mothers day? i mean i realize that i didnt grow up with a mom in the house but usually most kids still do something. for me its just been like any other sunday except they would make us give out flowers to all the woman in the ward. as a joke once i gave my dad one of the flowers because through out my live he has tried to play both roles. but ya...do other people celebrate mothers day even though they dont really have much attachment to their mother? i did take my aunt linda(who is the coolest aunt in the world) out for lunch on friday and i finished digging her ditch for her. so i guess you could count that as a mothers day/birthday present.
its weird because i feel more attachment to my aunt then my mom. i mean i loved my mom to bits when i saw her but she didnt really do anything for my sister and i when we were growing up. we would also go on vacation a lot and visit linda so i think that because we saw her more often then there was more attachment there...i dunno...its all good. happy mothersday to all you mothers out in internet land.

Yeah, my sister's husband grew up without a dad. One time, she asked him, "So, what do you think I should get my dad for father's day?" He said "I don't know." She got slightly upset, thinking that he was just being a jerkface, but then she remembered--"oh my--he never grew up with a father."
ReplyDeleteAnyway, here's one for awkwardness. I hope you have a good time at work.
