So, here we go AGAIN.
Aug. 11th, 2006 12:02 pmYou know, no matter how many times I tell her, she just wants me to do it when she wants it, be damned if I have a good reason for delaying it for ONE DAY or not.
So, I wake up around 11:15 this morning, get up, go to the bathroom. Kaa-san has a list of things she wants me to do today. Sweep floor, wash dishes, go to the laundromat [since our damn washer LEAKS], and go to Hecht's for a return. All good. Most of it she told me last night. Then, at the bottom, not quite an after thought it says 'Cut the grass BEFORE Saturday.
. . .
Today is Friday. That means you want me to do it today. 1. Don't beat around the bush. Just say you want me to cut it TODAY. and 2. FUCK NO. Didn't we have this discussion two weeks ago? Do you remember WHY I said I cut the grass saturday morning, TOMORROW morning, instead of Friday?
BECAUSE I HAVE TO GO TO WORK AND I DON'T WANT TO BE TIRED.
I mean, is it SO HARD to wait less the 24 HOURS for me to cut the grass. It happens, EVERY TIME. I don't ever say 'I'm going to cut the grass Saturday morning' to her because that'll just give her an excuse to say 'No, you need to cut it tomorrow/friday'. So I don't give her that train of thought and hope she can wait to ask me to do it Friday night when I get off of work, or be surprised when I get up when the birds are still chirping Saturday morning to do it MYSELF.
But no. So, no surprise, I'm not doing it today. She can bitch all she wants and I'll just tell her, 'I'm doing it tomorrow morning like I had been planning to all week. I don't care if you believe me or not, it's going to get done' and that's that. Tonight, I'm going to the bookstore until it closes [assuming I get off at a decent hour] and wandering home at about 11:15. Hopefully she'll be sleep and won' harass me...
