Today's been pretty uneventful. Ient to chutrch with Mom, even though I really didn't want to. It was nice, though and the sermon was good, so in the end I didn't mind going. I just feel that sometimes I do things because I am afraid of what Mom will say. I know I shouldn't care, but when Mom said that she wanted me to come to church with her, I said yes because I was afraid that if I didn't I would never hear the end of it. How I should come because of this, that and the other.I mean, it probably wouldn't be like that, but just the thought of it. I dunno why, but sometimes I feel like she's running my life by being suttly persuasive and it's not fair. I want you to do this, I would like you to do thhat...sure I have everyeright to say no, but it's one of those things where if I say no, then what? I knew she didn't want to go by herself, so in order to keep her from doing so, I felt that it my duty to go with her.
I came home and took a swim for a bit before I came in and got online. I've also been correcting some writing for some of the day, had a voice chat on MSN, then my dialup provider dropped me, and I came back on to find that someone had messaged me to come to our place and that's where I am now. Jack and others have come in and out and I've been here for quite a bit now...and will probably stay for a bit longer.
I love the weather right now, though. It's nice and warm, breezy without being hot and the birds are out. I've been hearing a mockingbird's calling for the last ten minutes or so and it is absolutely lovely.
ASo update's finished and I will be off.
