betsy :)
i got a text from ‘stalker’ earlier today and was genuinely scared for a second because i forgot who i put in my phone as that.
no need to worry though, it’s just AT&T Family Map. the number i blacked out is my mother’s number, although i did consider leaving it there because then maybe internet people would see and prank call her and that would show her. but i don’t need that drama right now.
basically it’s this program (that she pays for) that lets my mom go on a computer and see on a map where i am. she claims that ”if i lose my phone, we can find it,” or like if i get kidnapped or something, but 1) that’s what the “find my iphone” app thing is for, and 2) i think kidnappers these days are smart enough to smash the kid’s phones (sorry, that sounds bad, but i’ve watched enough tv to be realistic about this).
i know she doesn’t check it often, but still. i’ve gotten in multiple fights with her over this. she doesn’t trust me, etc etc. and maybe she shouldn’t trust me, but she doesn’t know that! even since that i’ve had AT&T family map, i’ve said i’m going to one place and actually gone somewhere else.
once i told her that i was staying over jenny’s house, and we ended up going into the city and staying there until 7AM. as a precaution, i took out the battery and sim card (minor inconvenience), and we got away with it!
i think the worst part of it is the fact that i get a fucking text every month reminding me that my mommy still has the ability to be watching over me at any second. as soon as i forget about it, OH HI CASSIDHE, IT’S A NEW TEXT FROM YOUR STALKER. JUST IN CASE YOU DIDN’T REMEMBER. thanks.
i hope she never sees this. oh man, that would not be fun.”cassidhe, can we talk? i saw something you posted on the internets. thanks for giving me a solid reason not to trust you. so now you’re grounded until forever.”
I’M STILL A TEENAGER LET ME BE ANGSTY AND REBELLIOUS AND LIVE MY LIFE.
and if you really need to know where i am, just ask, mom. the (true) answer 99% of the time will probably be “in the post office parking lot”.
i have so many conflicting emotions about this right now it’s just too much to handle oh my godric i just want to laugh and cry and smoke weed oh man.
ughhhhh these two.
less than two weeks until season five and let me tell you i am so excited.

i know it’s not perfect, but here it is! the thing in the top left corner is a litter box that i’m turning into a dig box just as soon as i get some nice rocks for it. for now there’s just fleece in it. and i definitely have to get the next size up igloo for her. for now it works, but i think she’d like a bigger one better. i have both a water bottle and a dish of water out for her because i wasn’t sure which she’d prefer, but she seems to like the dish better (i don’t think she’s drank any water from the bottle). also, there are a few toys in there but they’re pretty hard to see because of the pattern of the fleece liner. i did have a toilet paper roll cut down the middle in there until earlier because she peed in it.
if anyone has any suggestions, i’m open to them!
i just have a lot to say right now, ignore me.
this is my babygirl betsy :) i finally picked her up today and she is the sweetest thing ever. when i put her in her cage, the first thing she did was annoint with my shirt that i left in there for her! i had to make plans tonight to force myself to leave her alone to settle in, but i hope she’s ready for some serious bonding time tomorrow :)
this was the best day though, because not only did i get betsy, but it was also the first sailing day of the season! i’ll be racing every wednesday night this summer on a 33’ boat and i’m psyched. and we did really well tonight (first in the division? i won’t be sure until results are posted) so the skipper broke out the champagne and i felt like the classiest motherfucker in the world even though it was in a solo cup.
i was skeptical at first, but now i know that this is the start of a beautiful summer :)
