My family is ridiculous.
My mother is totally unreasonable... sometimes she doesn't make any sense.
I'm not posting it to be angry about my life but just because I believe most people will find humour in this because I fail to, just because it's happening to me.
Information: My cousin Claire and her 2 siblings all happen to be blessed with too much energy and ADD. They live in a madhouse, and they like to talk.
Mother: "Laura, call your cousin Claire, it's her birthday."
Laura: "No, I was dealing with kids all day. You call."
Mother: "No. She's not my cousin."
Laura: "K, where are we going for dinner?"
Mother: "Nowhere, until you call your cousin."
Laura: "Why can't someone else call?"
Mother: "Because no one else will."
(Dad sits there being silent even though it's his sisters' kid.)
Laura: "I'm not calling her."
Mother: "Then you're not going out tonight, and you can't have Ethan here."
Laura: "That's no fair, that only applies to me 'cause Mitchell never goes out! Why don't you take away his computer then."
Mother: (Silence).......
Laura: YOU'RE BEING RIDICULOUS! YOU'RE NOT EVEN MAKING SENSE!
....I ended up calling my cousin.
