Mom called to say she might have overreacted to my wanting to borrow the photo album while sis is in town and it was because the more she thought about it, the more she realized that she was trying to avoid a conflict with her at the expense of me. And that even though she and I were having a perfectly lovely afternoon, she reacted knee jerk to the situation.
I said, okay, fair enough, but really, isn’t it time to set the tyrant free? I say release your inner bitch.
