{{PC}}, you've already gotten lots of excellent advice. I'll re-iterate what I've found most valuable for myself (my mother is a Pro at the Passive-Aggressive Bullshit). You can only be responsible for you. I think your calm in the face of her storm is your best possible route. If you can't change her (you can't), all you can change is your response to her. And ocasionally (very slowly) they'll change a bit when they don't get the hystrionic response they expect. (I know we didn't talk much at F2F, I have that shy/quiet at first until I loosen up thing, same as you. And shy+shy not equaling to "getting to know you." But you seem like a great guy. Take the Buffistas' word for it. We're smart. We know stuff. Keep that in mind). Best of luck.
Decides this is what I will call Teppy someday, when I get to have too many drinks with her.
"Tep"esh?
Their album was inspired by Led Zepplin. Therefore, it was "zep-ish".
Raq! Tell me more about your new haircut.
Then go take pictures of yourself for an hour.
Hec, you've made me blush furiously! :)
I think I'm gonna switch stylists. I'm thinking of my GF's or of asking Aimee for hers... Speaking of Aimee, {{{Aims}}}

When I clicked on your reference link last night and got NOTHING, there was such a physical sensation of disappointment. "Awwww, I wanna SEE Gloomcookie!"
I'd seen your pic before, but it'd been a while.
Aimee's stylist is also Kristin's stylist and they were both sporting supercool haircuts at the F2F.
It is nice to hear your compliments since I was looking at that photo and going, "Damn! When did I turn into my mother??" My mom is cute and all that, but 18 years older than me!

I have managed to edit one cover letter for Dave today and write one for Tal, which is not much considering the time here. What I haven't done is clean up this place before guests come tonight or even make myself a cup of tea, because I am hurting so much today. I think I'll fix the tea thing first and then see what I can do about the cleaning thing.
My ticket home is booked. And, thankfully, my dad paid for it. I offered to, and I thought I was going to, but then he just gave me his credit card number. Guilting me into coming home is totally cool as long as it doesn't cost

four hundred dollars.
A family friend died, and my mom used this opportunity to note that he had a heart attack caused by the tension resulting from his son having an illicit affair. So please don't sully the family name and/or give her tension that could kill her. Promise?

Round trip, right?

OMG, if you did a Jewish mom like this in a movie you'd be accused of pandering to vicious stereotypes.

I thought my mother was good at the guilt trips, but that brings guilt to a whole new level.
