i had a bit of weed and i left it out on my dresser. it wasn't an accident, i just put it there, whatever, you know? it's no big deal really, my parents know i smoke weed and everything. but for some reason my mom was fucking pissed when she saw it. i really didn't think it would be a big deal, but she got so mad! She said how it was innapropriate to leave that out, that it didn't look good. if someone came over, like my little cousins or something, and saw that, what would i do? i said well, first of all if i knew they were coming over, i wouldn't just leave it out like that, and secondly, they probably wouldn't even know what it was. "that's not the point, rebecca," she says, "i don't want this to be the kind of home where my own daughter can leave pot out in the open"...WHY NOT?! wouldn't you want your home to be a comfortable one? one where your DAUGHTER can feel at ease with leaving these kinds of things out in the privacy of her own room? "you never even come in here anyways!" it's just so ridiculous. i hate that she's like that, i really do. all this fucked up hype about image and how things are "supposed" to look. it's fucking ridiculous.
