How Petty Am I?

 Ya'll remember Lintball?  Mom's husband who was a nightmare to deal with after she died?  He loves his football team, the Kansas City Chiefs.  And I imagine he's glued to the television whenever they are playing.  I still have his phone number.  Part of me wants to call him repeatedly during games just to interrupt him.  I know he always has his phone on as his ass as he even left it on during Mom's funeral service and it rang during it.  Mom has been gone over 10 years and I'm still holding a grudge.  I don't think I'll ever be able to let go of it.

I'm making a presentation to Bean's class tomorrow.  They were having a lesson at school and ancestry came up.  The teacher asked Bean if I could come talk to the class about my family from Korea.  Hopefully, the social anxiety won't kill me.  I went and got some Korean food for the class to try.  Bean is worried for me - "Mom, what are you going to talk about?  You don't have to do this!  Wait, you're bringing food?  It'll all be okay.  Everyone loves snacks." I don't really know what I'm going to talk about. I think I'll just wing it.
