Quote For The Day
“Some people are interested in having the experience of being disappointed.”
My mother was like this. For her, the best part of going to a restaurant, even one of her own selection, was finding a fault she could point out. There was one stretch when she was into being a grandmother, and Emrack was spending one day a week with her. We made a point of always putting a dirty or wrinkled shirt on him, so as to deny her the pleasure of seeking out something new to complain about.
