Heh, one of the worst fights I ever had with my mom was when I told her I don't plan on having kids.

My mom and I have resolved that majority of our issues. I'm able to joke with her now, and we rely on each other too much. There are still times when we piss each other off, but they don't happen a lot. I think before part of the problem was that there's a 30-year-age gap between us. I did get slapped in the face once, not one of our better moments. But ever since I've moved away, and grown-up our relationship has definitely gotten better. We both understand that the other one is coming from a completely different view point because of age.

There is a 37 year difference between my mom and I, and I think we bonded because out of her 6 children, I am the youngest, her last- the one she decided to have because she knew that it was now or never. She always spent more time with me because she had more time because my other siblings were older.

Half of the time my mother gets mad at me has to do with the "tone" of my voice. Just to give an example, the other day I was talking to my mom and we were just sitting in silence and next thing I know she hangs up on me. Two minutes later she calls back telling me it was pretty rude of me to not even say goodbye before *I* hung up on her. I told her she hung up on me and she told me I hung up on her. I think what ended up happening was I was eating while I was on the phone with her and I guess she interpreted me chewing with the click on the phone when you hang up, so then she hung up on me. Five minutes after all of this she IMed me to tell me she loved me.

It was just so silly and unneccesary.

My mom hung up on me last year. I called her back and told her that it was pretty childish.

My mom always has to leave with "Love You" even if we've had a horrible fight. She's always afraid she won't see me again. Especially when I was going to Toronto for night school. Updated On: 2/12/06 at 01:42 AM

My parents get over our fights REALLY quickly. And it annoys me sometimes, because I'm like..."Uh, hello, still mad at you, thanks,"

And my mom always says that I'm being sarcastic to her. I am a very sarcastic person, but usually when she says that, I'm not being sarcastic. I think she interprets the meaning of sarcastic wrong, and it irritates me, because I tell her that she doesn't really know what it means.

I hung up on my mom last week when I was sick. All I wanted to do was sleep and she was insisting that I go back to the doctor and have them run tests on me. I turned off my cell phone, tossed it...somewhere and lost it for a few days.

My mom hangs up on me a lot when she's angry.

My cell phone died two or three days ago and I've been too lazy to recharge it.

Half of my fights with my mom have to do with me getting aggravated by the tone of her voice. The woman doesn't even have to be loud to make me feel like I'm being yelled at.

I've hung up on my mom a couple of times when I just couldn't take any more of her franticness, but that really, really, pisses her off and usually leads to her calling me back to be all "HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT YOUR MOTHER LIKE THAT" so I don't do it too often

My mom always turns off her phone when she's mad at me - which I think is completely childish of her. What if something happened and I really needed to get in touch with her? If I'm pissed, I don't answer my phone but I at least keep in on and listen to the message.

Posted: 2/12/06 at 1:49am

When my mom is yelling at me on the phone, I often just set it down and wait a while and then just pick it up and pretend that I was listening the whole time.

With me, it's usually the reverse. 5 minutes after a fight, I'll be all happy and cheerful like nothing happened, and Mom will still be steaming and crying for quite a while.

One of the things we fight about most often is me letting my cell phone battery die and forgetting to recharge it. Mom thinks I should charge my phone every night, even though it's bad for the battery and I even had the salesperson at the T-Mobile store tell her that.

I've hung up on my mom before, mainly because I am so stressed out about something that I am afraid I'll say something I'll regret later.

Another late night *poke*

Mind if I join the insomnia party?

[CanadianSnowbird]

Posted: 2/12/06 at 3:43am

Not insomnia yet. We haven't even attempted sleep.

[Zyla]

Posted: 2/12/06 at 3:45am

I took a nap earlier today, and will, then, probably be awake most of the night.

[Katt]

Posted: 2/12/06 at 3:55am

Zyla, I'm curious. Who is your avatar of, and why did you choose it?

[Zyla]

Posted: 2/12/06 at 3:59am

Thanks for asking. That's part of why I chose it; I figured most people would have no idea who it is. Gives me an air of mystery and uniqueness, maybe? Or possibly it just marks me as a theater geek. It's a painting of Sarah Siddons, an eighteenth-century English tragic actress.

It would be more of a mystery if her name wasn't at the bottom of the painting, heh.

I was thinking, "Wow, she can read the writing in the picture?"
Then I realized that clicking on it leads to an enlarging option. I'm just not computer-savvy at all.

[Katt]

Posted: 2/12/06 at 4:05am

No, she just has really good vision. It's pretty amazing really.

[Zyla]

Posted: 2/12/06 at 4:17am

It is amazing, especially if your vision's that sharp after spending who knows how much time on BWW!

Morning all!

All of you people who live in snow-laden lands ... which of you is going to shovel me out of my 13 inches? Cause for me, it might as well be 50 feet. :)
