Today I am having coffee with a friend of mine's mother's friend's daughter. My friend and the daughter have never even met, so it is that remote. She's Australian, and has recently been in London. This is her first trip to NYC. She's only doing touristy things, and I'm to deflect that somewhat. I believe she's quite young, which really, considering everyone I hang about with, should be moot.

Perfectly pleasant, and I'm oddly good at these things. But I'm in a really insane mood, and really need to fucking knock it off, because my sense of humour is odd at my most genial and normal. Today I'm at my drawlingly peculiar worst.

Happy shiny happy shiny. Ugh. Off to work.

I think she's actually older than us or at least our age, but like you say - never met her. Thanks for meeting up with her.

Have I told you my mother is actually choosing to stay *in my house* in three weeks for the first time since I moved out?

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

???

Will let you know once she leaves, if I am not calling you in a panic to avoid committing murder during the visit.

Your mother coming to your house?

For less than 48 hours, to attend a baby shower. Since we just picked a color for the baby's room, I am now debating if we should focus on getting it painted before or after she leaves. Let her criticize the finished room and have it be too late to change or give her a chance to feel we listened to her opinions?

Did I mention that she arrives five days after I leave her house? Since we are doing family thanksgiving gathering two weeks early? Oy!
