As a disclaimer, none of what I'm about to say is a complaint. I don't complain about any of this sort of thing. What people say about me, they say about me, and that's just how things go. Although I already don't appreciate the little gossip rag talking about me already, but it doesn't bother me all that much. It also, I promise, is nothing against my Elle/Sunshine. She just made me think of it.
I've gotten the "momma's boy" thing all my life. Even when Darrin was around, I was still the younger one and ergo, the one that got spoiled and babied. And very few guys want to be known as a "momma's boy," save maybe Jason, he was pretty proud of what he was doing for his momma. But for a kid in middle school trying to prove himself to other guys, it did not help having your mom come in to drop off your lunchbox in the middle of the schoolday when she realized you'd forgotten it. No guy wants to be that kid, because no guy wants to admit that he needs his mom. I had my fair share of those embarrassing moments where my mom would show up and coddle me in front of the guys I considered my friends, and I would spend the rest of the day resenting her for embarrassing me in front of everyone. But hell, time's past and let's be honest. Every person needs a mom. Even if you have dad, dads are always second-best, and I can tell that even from seeing my friends' families way back when. Moms are the ones that'll offer more sympathy, and be thinking of you in the middle of the day, and will buy you your clothes when you're younger, and make you your lunches. Maybe it's all changing now that dads don't have to be the breadwinners anymore, but I still think every person's gonna have some kind of connection to their mom, no matter what. You have to admit that even if you don't like your mom, there's always gonna be something interesting about your relationship with a person who you spent 9 months constantly with. I'm glad I've gotten to a mature enough point that I can just flat-out say I love my mom and I need her, and always have, and that I don't think there's anyone I'll miss as much as I will when she's gone. If people go and say that's me being a momma's boy, well... then I guess I'm alright with that.
On another topic, I did dress up for Halloween, and I did attend a Halloween party. It's been a while since I did the first, though, I gotta say. And I thought it'd be funny to dress up as Robin without having a Batman, but it seemed to just confuse everyone I came upon who wondered where my Batman was. Robin was always my favorite, anyway. Batman tried too hard, in my opinion. Robin was just himself, and wasn't so standoffish as Batman. I can imagine Robin got a lot of play, and that's all I'll say on that front. But I went to Elle and her friend's "soiree" and had a good time. I wish I could remember which costume Sunshine was wearing that night. I'm going to venture a guess and say.... ladybug? But it might've been the devil costume. I've never seen one person wear so many different costumes. But I'll respect it, since I'm her Papa Jack. And since I'm apparently... "so hot." Granted, Elle is also ridiculously hot, and I was a LITTLE drunk, but not enough to act on that with a girl I've known for a month. And besides being ridiculously hot, she's also the sweetest girl, and I hate the things that gossip rag has said about her, because as far as I know, she doesn't deserve any of that. I guess my only explanation for not kissing her yet is, what's the rush? Being 'friends' so far has been working decently, anyhow.
I also need to be seeing more of Callie Walsh's face, or I'll be sad.
