My Mom So Does Not Get Me

Once again I find myself hiding out here to respond to my mother.


I'm kind of speechless though.


All I can think to say is, she SOOOO doesn't get me.


My other blog has a title that expresses my battle against small spans of time where anxiety overcomes me. Anyone who really knows me totally gets that I sweat the details...too much. Anyone who knows me knows I am not just a little bit neurotic. Anyone who knows me knows that I don't let it stop me, but it certainly gives me pause now and then. Anyone who knows me knows that I usually take these moments and seek the comedy inside them or my reaction to them to battle them.

My Mom? She actually left a comment on my blog that said this,

"Not sure about your new look but I never understood the anxious moments title in the first place.I guess that is not what I want your life to focus on."

This comment is simultaneously touching (she cares and doesn't want me to worry) and also sad (because she so does not get me).

Moms always like to see the good in us, they focus on the happy and the bright and the beautiful. The deets can sometimes be too murky.

I like the new look FWIW.
