- She always knows when I lie. Like she's psychic or something. (Harry, you've met her... could she be?)
- She can, and will, never let me hear the end of the things I'm wrong about, according to her. Like, well, divorcing. Twice.
- She's Irish. She always will be.
- While I was growing up, she thought I'd be her successor. So did I, really. She was... unhappy that I ended up being my father's successor instead.
- Believing I'd be like her made us close in the past. Now that belief, on top of it all turning out otherwise, is making us more distant instead.
- I'm missing being able to talk with her, really talk. She's missing it too. It's not... possible though. She doesn't deserve being dragged into this darkness without being able to do even as little as I can.
- She doesn't approve of my career.
- She doesn't approve of my decision to live alone after my second divorce either.
- She doesn't believe me that my second ex-husband is a dick.
- I just hate hurting her feelings. Every. Single. Time.
