Ode on a SHUTUP SHUTUP SHUTUP

It's past midnight. This bird will tweet, whistle, screech, chirrup til 2 am, I predict. At least if last night is any indication. I'm at my aunt's house for one more night. And this bird outside the window demands my full attention. Go to SLEEEEEEP.

Today my mom told me not to eat too much dessert. Do I take that as:

A. a sign that she's feeling better
B. her attempt to regain control now that her house is returning back to normal with the departure of the grandkids
C. an indication that I've gained weight
D. a compliment

My aunt says that my mom is acting "normal"--which is a good thing. Curious.

And, seriously, I don't want to throw a boot out the window at this bird outside, but what's the deal??

Oh my god. SHUT. UP.

Oh and Blood Diamond is a horrible movie.
