I love how parents always find a way to turn things around in order to accomplish what they want to accomplish. Exhibit A: I decided that I wanted to visit a friend this coming weekend in San Antonio. I felt that it would be common courtesy to call my mom and make her feel like she was part of the decision making process, even though my mind was already made up. Her response to my idea went a little something like, "How about this, you get some putting lessons next week and you can go to San Antonio." In the words of text language, WTF?!? I have no idea how my mom creatively linked my golf game with my weekend plans, but she found a way...she always does.
Keep in mind that I am on the SMU golf team, we already practice 20 hours a week, and her request would add to that time, thus taking away from my studies as well as my social life, should I ever acquire one of those. Not to mention the fact that I was completely caught off guard and a little offended that my oh-so-supportive mother as mentioned in previous posts would suddenly turn on me. THat's the last time I ever try to do the right thing, I'm going to San Antonio and noone can stop me! So, boo-yah?
