Parents' Weekend

my mom came for parents' weekend, and all i got was...
alot of fantastic food
some great shopping
a trip to an american art museum/estate
mom's opinion on and insight into all sorts of things (and she's, like, always right - just ask my dad)
a long nap in a super-comfy bed
someone to hang out with (not impress or entertain) non-stop for 2.5 days
lots of just silly, fun conversation
time with my friends' families (some of whom i'd never met before)

i know, i know - you all pity me immensely.

my mom is the best.
