Yes mum. :-S
Well, I called her. The line isn't all that clear, so I'm having slight
trouble understanding her. Suffice it to say, the conversion isn't
flowing terribly smoothly. (Neither of us appears to have anything to
talk about...)
A few minutes ago she said she'd call me back. I guess she will in a bit.

Or it could be that she's still dealing with fallout from that last
relationship. The problem with abusers is that unless they're held
accountable, they tend to come back. IME, abusive personalities don't
tend to take "no" for an answer.

*Now* she does. Your post remembered that quote of her: "aren't you actors
my mom pays for to give me an illusion of a normal social life?"

Oasis perform a live gig. At the end of the performance, Noel throws his
tamberine into the crowd. Then the drummer gets up and throws his
drumsticks into the crowd. And then Liam hoists his Union Jack electric
guitar into the air over his head. The crowd goes insane! But after
hesitating for a moment, he puts it down again and stroles off stage.
(Trust me, if Liam Ghallager's guitar had gone into the crowd, A)
somebody would how have a serious concussion from being hit in the head
with a guitar, and B) there would have been mass riots over who gets to
keep the sacred object...)

to anyones head!

*You* try catching a heavy object at arm's length! ;-)
(As an aside... I'm not actually sure why electric guitars are so heavy.
But trust me, they *are*!)
