Exactly.

And yes - as far as drinking, drugs, all that - I have *never* in my life touched any kind of drugs or cigarettes, I didn't start drinking until about age 22 - and even then, only a little. And I never even dated in high school! Let alone...anything more.

But none of that was good enough for my mom. Nothing ever is.

I kind of get to the point where I just give up. If I'm never going to please her, I may as well dis-please her. If that makes any sense...

Kind of like my notion that hey, if I'm going to he-- for a minor offense...may as well have some fun with other stuff if that's where I"ll end up anyway. Just how I think sometimes. Not good.
