On Saturday, mom brought in lunch and told me I needed to try to get out of the house for a bit. Apparently moping around was the biggest mistake she ever made and it twisted all her thoughts around. I told her there was nowhere to go, she handed me cash and said "treat your friends" I considered messaging Donna, I hadn't spoken to her in a week but she had a new boyfriend, Mark, and they were always "busy". Damn everyone is so sure of their love life except me. But I messaged her anyway and was surprised when she said "yeah come get me this afternoon" mom gave me a curfew (10pm) and I slipped into a clingy black dress and put on my darkest red lipstick. I hope Donna is up for another one of my night out on the town.
