I'm officially insane.
So today I was very angry and tired and PMSing. (note previous entry)
Now I am happy. Do you want to know why? Ill tell you... JPs mom doesnt object to him moving to New York if thats what he really wants to do. suprise! This is seriously a milstone in my life because i feel like ive finally won her over. I hope she knows that i really care about jp. I aint no heartbreaker! I hope she doesnt see me as that girl that "steals her baby away". That would make me feel really bad. She is crazy... but then again so is her son... and then again so am i. So it works! Cocktails!!
Okay this seriously made me laugh so hard.
