Naked Moms & Notes on how to be more pathetic

Goddamn it. Mom wants to be my Facebook friend. WTF? She's not the most computer literate person. But I'm sure one thing will lead to another, and she'll find my irreverent blog. Fucking A. So much for getting myself out there.


Any suggestions? I can’t not friend my own mother. I’m sorry you gave birth to me, but you can’t be my Facebook friend. Letting Mom read my stuff is like being naked. It's not cool to be naked in front of your mom. Not cool at all.


Speaking of nakedness and mothers--not to be confused with naked mothers. Mom's been wearing this rather thin, worn night gown. She needs a new one. It's so thin she wears a robe over it. She says they don't have nightgowns anymore only pjs. I find this hard to believe. Anyway . . .I ask her what’s wrong with pjs. She says that she wears a nightgown because Dad likes easy access. I can't believe my mother is saying shit like this. My mother who doesn't like to discuss sex, religion or politics.


On another note --the bitching about work note--I applied for the ICU/TU position again. Never got an interview the last time. That’s pathetic. Not being able to even get an interview with the organization I currently work for. Please hire me. I'm pathetic and poor. I can be cute too if you just give me a chance. Smart? We'll have to work on smart.


Changed my cover letter. Cited specific examples of how awesome I was the last time I worked on their floor. If this doesn’t work, I may have to resort to a fictional resume or maybe a creative non-fiction with a disclaimer. *Certain facts were embellished. *Certain events were manufactured. *References may be manufactured for aesthetic reasons.

I love your Nonfiction Resume Disclaimer idea. Wish I could help on the mom stuff. How about: Tell her Sears still sells nightgowns and you're quitting facebook, it's only for old people anyway;)
Or you could create a fake face-persona. I'll post fake bible quotes, be your friend Mary Mag Dalen.
