180.4. Yell

[thankfuckforlife]

That awkward moment where you're never too old for a mom smack in the back of the head for yelling.

So, that's how she pulls you into line, huh?

[thankfuckforlife]

That, and the occasional silent treatment when I've really been a bitch. Luckily, that's not often.

[moviesismagic]

With those innocent baby-blues? I can't imagine you doing anything that deserves a mom smack LOL.

[thankfuckforlife]

Youuuuuuuuuuuu. Hello! I miss you so hard!

[moviesismagic]

Missed you right back! I have a surprise for you.

[thankfuckforlife]

Surprise? What is it?!

[moviesismagic]

I'm on my way home. I'll be there first thing in the morning. What shift are you on tomorrow?

[thankfuckforlife]

OMGYAY! I'm not working tomorrow! I did a double today, so I'm off. What time will you be here?

[moviesismagic]

Early. Just after 7. Think you can be awake and I'll pick you up? We can go back to my place and crash together.

[thankfuckforlife]

Fuck, yes. I can be. I missed you like crazy. There probably won't be crashing straight away, you know.

[privateinvestigations]

All the best moms know the Mom Smack.

[thankfuckforlife]

Then I think my Mom's the gold medallist.

[privateinvestigations]

I have a feeling she can be scary when she wants to be. In saying that, Renz said you were pretty scary yourself this morning.

[thankfuckforlife]

Yes, I admit, I have a pretty intense bitch streak when I'm lacking sleep.

[privateinvestigations]

Don't worry, you're in good company.

[thankfuckforlife]

I hear your bitch side is notorious and no one can live up to it.

[privateinvestigations]

It's a dirty job, but someone's gotta do it. Renz is definitely the more innocent and kind of us both.

[thankfuckforlife]

How come you're such a hardass? Have you seen a lot of bad shit?

[livingforlife]

You'll be in your 80s and I'll be over 100, and you'll still not be too old for a mom smack, young man.

[thankfuckforlife]

It's not very nice, you know.

[livingforlife]

Neither is yelling. Don't think adulthood means you've outgrown having to behave yourself, son.

[thankfuckforlife]

I wasn't yelling. I was just... being resonant.

[livingforlife]

Where I come from, that's called yelling, Richard.

[thankfuckforlife]

We come from the same place.

[livingforlife]

Precisely my point.

[thankfuckforlife]

You might have bruised my brain.

[livingforlife]

Oh, yeah. Mean abusive mom. That's me.

[thankfuckforlife]

Mean.

[livingforlife]

Don't tell Child Protective Services. :P

[thankfuckforlife]

I'm running away from home forever. As soon as Adrian picks me up, that is.

[livingforlife]

Until then, you'll be on my couch eating ice cream, watching Gilmore Girls, and lamenting how mean your mom is?

[thankfuckforlife]

No, I ate all the ice cream last night.

[livingforlife]

There was a whole carton of Ben and Jerry's in there!

[thankfuckforlife]

I know, since when did you get so stingy on your ice cream stash?

[livingforlife]

I hadn't had time to run to the market.

[thankfuckforlife]

Mom fail.

[livingforlife]

I've been sort of busy, kiddo.
