Moving into my own place has brought out the mom in me. It's mindblowing. My room remains unbelievably messy at all times, I guess that will never change; but I'm a cleaning machine. I wash dishes constantly and enjoy having a mde bed (even if there are pounds of clothes covering it), I clean up other people's messes, and the kicker is that I find satisfaction in it all. Who would've thunk? Apparently I can also make delicious sandwiches which is basically the defining skill of a good mother. Haha this reminds me one of the discussions we had in my women in ancient greece class abuot gender being a social construct. My teacher says I enjoy it only because society pushes this role on me and the fact that I'm living it out is subconsciously gratifying. Could be. I don't know why else I'd enjoy it.

We FINALLY left our apartments. And where do we choose to go? Tuck's of course! As much as I hate on places like that and the people that go there, as long as I'm there or anywhere with people I like who are having fun, I'm having fun. We just played pool and drank pitchers and watched Augie destroy himself. What more could you ask for on a Thursday night?

I can curse in front of my mother now! And make jokes about being drunk and having hangovers. Even in front of my little sister. It's amazing. If you couldn't tell, I come from a particularly conservative familial background, at least as far as actually verbalizing things like taht goes.
