another attack last night

i was pretty stressed-up yesterday from work and running around the
whole day so when it came round to dinner time i was hungering for
meat, meat, meat. it so happened that the previous night before we had
lots of leftovers so i guess to cut down on waste the portions for
dinner last night were reduced. i ate but i was still hungry (tofu, a
piece of pork chop very thinly sliced and some fried bok choy). then i
got something else to eat after dinner and i told my mom that dinner
wasn't enuff to fill me up. i didn't have enuff to eat for dinner, i
told her. that got her off on a mini rage. HOW CAN YOU SAY SUCH
HURTFUL THINGS AS IF I DON"T TAKE CARE OF THIS HOUSE? etc etc etc. i
said that i wasn't provoking a fight, or meaning to be disrespectful
but truly dinner that night just wasn't enuff for me. BUT YOU ALWAYS
EAT WITHOUT LEAVING ANYTHING FOR ANYBODY ELSE etc etc then she said
that i needed to quit my job if i was so stressed up and that i needed
to see the psychiatrist as i was in one of my fits. i have already pre-
booked an appointment to see my shrink this weekend, btw. Anyway, i
will just STFU next time and go and get a Mars bar or some thing.

sensitive topic, food.

Sounds like it was just the straw that broke the camel's back. Take
it easy and never mind the little things.

I agree with Erik, and maybe you might want to check the larder before you
go to work so you know what to expect, and you can buy a sandwich before
going home, if necessary.

After reading that I thank my lucky stars that quantity of food is an
argument my parents and I have never had. Type of food, maybe, but there has
always been plenty to go around.

Yikes. If money's not extremely tight, that sounds too tense to me.
Yeah, just keep some snacks around for yourself. Good grief.

You never told me whether your landlord was uptight about you occasionally
buying yourself a chocolate bar. But having her own mother complain that she
eats too much food is pretty scary.
