"Why don't you go out?"

[cujennaboo5c]

That's what my Mom just said to me. She asked what I'd been doing today. I gave her my standard answer: "Took a bath, laying around, feeling sorry for myself." She asks "WHY? Why don't you get out and go somewhere?" And I gave the simplest answer I could. "Because I don't want to. Because this is what I've wanted to do the past few days. I just want to feel sorry for myself." She got mad. Can you believe that? Mad! She's mad because I want to feel sorry for myself? I don't get her. Whatever.

Tomorrow I go back to the real world and then I'll quit feeling sorry for myself. For awhile anwyay. As Britney Spears would say, "It's my prerogative."
