> Of all the times she could have picked. She didn’t even trouble herself to call me today. Apparently her call last night was good enough. Not for me. Her only son, her first child to graduate college, and she couldn’t be assed to show up? My dad made it, and I rarely even see him anymore.

My mother recently debated my aunt over whether I had a degree. My dear aunt said that she thought that I had a college degree, and my mother insisted that I did not. She called me and asked me to set my aunt straight.

I said, “Mom. I DO have a degree, a Bachelor of Arts. I dropped out of law school.”

She said, “Oh.” She had no idea what the difference was.

Sigh.
