I had a really good conversation with my mom last night. It was good. I was really honest about a few things with her and I really tried hard to not let her get to me. I mean, how she responds to things is her deal, not mine. Actually she was really supportive of me and I feel like she really took the time to actually listen. It's been a really really long time that I've felt that she's really heard what I've said to her. I think it hit her hard that yes, I am her daughter, and yes, she needs to be a mom to me!! Even if I am 24. I was also met with the very great surprise that she is coming to visit the first week of August!! How great! It will be nice because I've lived here for 2 years now and no one in my family has even expressed an interest in coming to see me so I'm really looking forward to some time with her. It's been a few good years since we've done anything together just the two of us. She really is a nice person, and I do love her but it's just that things have felt like they've gone off track the last few years. She told me last night that she always feels really guilty for not being able to be home with us much while we were growing up, my parents were always working. It made me realize that yes, my mother has feelings too. It's weird how all of a sudden you realize that you are now an adult and you can have an adult conversation with your parents. I really appreciated that.

I need a haircut. I think I'll try and go after work tonight, we'll see if I have enough time. I love the new place I've been going and the girl who cuts my hair is awesome. The only thing is that she only works on Friday nights. Oh well. Yes, that is some randomness for the day.
