Right, I'm sorry for posting an entire topic when I'm squiffy but if it's that diabolical (nothing would surprise me) then if one of the mod-peeps could send it to damnation in some form or another then that'd be just cool. But enough preamble...
I know I can rant at my friends in the flesh about this, but not at this hour - and as I've had two or three (maybe four) glasses of red wine, a thread at 4am makes total sense. I'm sure I've done worse <Sighs>
Loathe as I am to post a thread that, at its most distilled level, equates to "My mom is teh suXX0rz" here I am. Loathe as I am to post a thread that, at its most distilled level, equates to a rambling rant, here I am.
Right righjt - tonight was the celebration of my mum's 25th anniversary at the company (impressive, no?) and so there was a very posh very tasty dinner at a very posh restaurant in a very posh hotel. Where, not unlike Club Tropicana, the drink is free. Well, red wine to be specific. Anyhoooos. So I've had a couple of glasses of red wine. My sister, three years my junior (sixteen), has had a fair few glassses of white wine. Whilst she may not have had as many as many as me, I'm more of a seasoned drinker than she is (I'm a student after all). I'm not saying this is necessarily a good or bad thing; I'm just poihnting this out as a detail.
My beloved mum (and I do love her) asks me "...don't drink that glass [of red]" Now this ignores the fact that she herself is not entirely road-worthy. Yes I'm tipsy (and a half, perhaps), but I don't find it fair that she should point this out as I am beyond the legal British drinking age.
Okay, here's te thing - my parents drink a fair bit. Not thart they are alcoholics, not at alll; my point is simplly that it is hypocrtitical of my mum to say (especially when she's not sober either) that I am drunk in a derisory manner.
Right, so I am drunk-ish (sobering up as I write). I object to her mentioning this kind of thing - my dad doesn't do it. Why must she? I hate that she's hypocritical about it.
What I hate even more (and I'm being quite open here) is that I often feel that I drink more than I ought to. I felt this two summers ago but now I feel it again. And I f*cking hate it. So obviously my ever-loving mother's comments don't exactly add to a fellow's feelings of well-being.
I am tired now, so I shall stop. I'm sure there was more I wanted to say, but I'm tired from all the shocking, hideous snd copious amounts of alcohol I have injesrted, and of all the hypocrisy from both my mum and myself.
Grrr - I'm dipleased in a big way. And distressed a tad. I probably ought to speak to my mum about this, but I doubt I will to be honestly honest. I need sleep. And a kiss. Arrgh.
Right, sorry for polluting the airwaves kiddywinks; I love you all really. Miss Marple.
