It's saturday afternoon and I'm at the 'rent's house. Wow -- I haven't seen them since like Thanksgiving. I haven't even stopped by to say hello after their month-long trip to the Philippines ~ they came back last month. Erm -- they only live in Bowie (no more than 35 minutes from my house in DC)!!! I'm bad -- I dunno -- they just stress me out. Of course it's all of my own doing. They're just happy to see me, really. I could, though, make the effort to see and speak to them more often. Bad son! BAD SON!
