If I didn't answer to "mom" after a few times, he would call "Gina". I couldn't believe it. I said I won't answer to that and he said, but you didn't answer to mom either. <br /><br />Just wait for the boyfriend thing. We got pretty lucky but my parents weren't so much (with me). It can be a delightful time. <br /><br />That kid has his head in the sand. Who doesn't know Sgt.

About a month ago he pointed out that he would be turning 23 this year. <br /><br />I love that quote from Margaret Atwood - it describes exactly how I feel at times.
