But why didn't you just ask me?" I set down my fork and glare at her. "Because you were sleeping, " She says, taking a sip if Chardonnay."I was taking a nap, Mom. It wasn't intended to be some kind of Disney fairy-tale hundred-year snooze.

About This Quote

I was taking a nap, Mom. It wasn't intended to be some kind of Disney fairy-tale hundred-year snooze. "I set down my fork and glare at her. "You were sleeping," she says, taking a sip of Chardonnay.

I stare at the wall and think about my life as a kid. I had always wanted to be like Jack and Jill, but as soon as I got out of the house I felt like such a loser because everyone else was doing it. The idea that being in bed for an hour is somehow better than being in school for nine hours just doesn't compute.

If she wants to be treated like a little kid then let her go back to being one.
