I may have to do it
 

I've been putting off going home for several reasons, most notably the life-changing experience I had last time I went home. =/
of course, there's always the falling out I had with my sister and the terrible relationship I have with my mother.

I'd finally grown the balls to start planning a trip home when lus derailed it because he won't be able to go. don't get me wrong, budd is a great guy, but not too much fun when it comes to road trips and eating at places I haven't been in years.

for s&g I called my mom yesterday (did I mention last time I talked to her we actually had a mostly pleasant conversation?) and it turns out she had surgery last week and is still in the hospital.
she said she hadn't told any of us (read: her children that don't live in the valley) because she didn't want us to worry... she's no spring chicken; we SHOULD worry when she has surgery.

so I think I'm gonna talk things over with my sister here in town and see what she thinks...
