I have to make Important Life Decisions but I don't want to so I've been avoiding the kitchen.

For some reason, in my house there are specific rooms where Serious Discussions take place. I don't know if this is a weird quirk of my family or if it's true in all houses but I know exactly where and when all of the important talks can take place. For example, I am safe on the big purple couch in the den. I'm not so safe in the kitchen...especially if my mother is making dinner as she is doing right this moment.

I know that if I walked into the kitchen right now, my mother would have Questions and she would expect me to have Answers. She would want to have a Talk About the Future, a What Are You Going To Do About Your Life? kind of discussion. Basically, the kind of discussion that makes me want to throw up.

I don't have any answers. I have no idea what to do about life right now. But unfortunately, I need to come up with some answers fairly quickly because I need to make a decision by the weekend. Eventually I will need to go into the kitchen.

Ok, fine. I'm only writing this blog because I don't want to walk into the kitchen right now but I know I need to so...Fine. I'm going to go into the kitchen and have a Serious Discussion with my mother.
