my mother says. by violet

Let's see. There's the "always wear clean underwear in case you get into a car accident."

Or, "good food is the way to a man's heart."

And how about "why buy the cow when they can get the milk for free?"

But I swear to god. All day long, I've heard my mom's voice in my ears with this one: "Don't live your life around a man. Let HIM live his life around YOU."

And guess what I'm doin' all damn day long? You guessed it.

It's really unfortunate, because I don't want to be hyptonized by the little red light on my phone... but I just am. I am, I am, I am. So, what now? This is pretty tricky, this waiting game. Do I call? Text? Facebook? Ask him out? Or do I let him? Or do I keep myself supremely busy and important and popular as to not remember that the only person I want to be popular with isn't calling. Please. Leave your solutions on my doorstep.

In the meantime...

I'm off to Happy Hour!
