um in defense, I had my headphones on and didn't hear her. kind of. maybe.

What you didn't hear was 6 hours of simultaneously mind numbingly boring and stressful driving. I don't think I loved anything at that moment.

and that was NOT half-hearted. Maybe Mom should have counted off "1, 2, 3..." so we all could have yelled at once.
