What's gone down in the last hour...

Mom finally got home, but it was already noon which means I wouldn't get into Socorro until 330 at best. But I called and told her I still wanted to go and then she sounded all hurt and sad....but then I called George to see exactly how bad the weather was up there and if maybe we could just push it off for a couple weeks, if vacation time would still be good, etc. I mean I had already pretty much killed one day and I wouldn't want to drive back in the dark, so that would kill more of Monday than planned as well, so I was pretty much left with little hangout time at this point anyways. Well, while I was talking to him, Mom called back and said I could go...but still that she would go with me. I finally asked her just what was so daunting about this trip and she seems to think I'm driving through Deliverance or something where there's no people on the road at all, or god knows what. I mean hell half of the Hobbs trip is farm roads that I wouldnt' see anyone on for 30 mins at a time. So I'm just going to take some time to instill this in her. George is coming down during thanksgiving and said he could bring his 360 and he'll have a long stretch for Christmas vacation. I think that will be enough time for Mom to get over this irrational fear of me driving to the west. I was waiting for her to say she got chased around by a haunted semi out there or something for all this fear of that road.

And if I wait a bit, George will be able to unlock everything and I'll get to see all the endings and bonuses and stuff anyways.  Yeah I realize I'm 26 and pussing out because of my mom, but I don't think anyone can say they haven't acqueisced to mom-guilt at some point in the past. I'll just wait til she's in a better frame of mind for me leaving. I'm definately doing the next one alone though. I wasn't in a very good frame of mind to be visiting people today anyways. -_- This whole thing has left me deeply agitated at the only two people I have down here, so....anyone know of a good city to move to, per chance?

I'm sure I'll be thinking about that while I'm up there. I actually got pissed all over again when I went out with mom, so I'm thinking I can take off next Monday and Tuesday and we can try again this weekend, maybe.

Phoenix Metro, AZ.
We have everything (like boxes of tiny doll things) & My friends already tried to talk you into moving here!

There are lots of libraries to work in. Mesa has 3! Or the museums if you can stand kids screaming in jell cells.

Soccoro & Alb ain't got nothing on us!
