MY FRIEND

Ahhh, this button. See this charming little rascal?

Mom used to communicate by voice. When I was near.

But now, she sends e-mails. Some contain opinions. Some contain “what I should do.”

Her pushy comments make perfect sense…. To the unicorns, who dwell beyond the leprechaun forest.

I always read the first few words, to get a feel for how annoying reading the entire e-mail would be.

Then, I reach for my friend. He’s black and square, with white letters. Nothing can describe my ecstasy — when I click him, and Mom floats away.

Until her next opinion.

    It worked for me, too. You don’t have to take everything, even from family. The bad part is, under german law i will still have to pay for her when she gets old, broke and helpless one day(and i know she will).

    Have you considered just leaving and never speaking to your mother ever again?

    It worked for me.
