I Want To Tell You What I'M Doing Today
Visiting my parents, who live 650 miles away from me. My mom was diagnosed with cancer about a month ago, only the specific diagnosis keeps shifting.
My aunt is here too. Now, don't get me wrong - I love my parents and my aunt. But I forgot something crucial: for that generation in my family, the favorite hobby is ranting about how bad everything in the world is. And they get loud.
I really just wanted to hang out with my mom and have some quiet quality time.
Luckily, I have an iPhone full of music and noise-cancelling earbuds. And I found where they keep the gin.
