Sick satisfaction

Is it wrong how satisfying I find it to call my mom who is a hundred miles away to tell her how sick I feel just to make her worry and then not take her advice? I think I mostly want to make sure someone would care if my throat did in fact swell shut in the middle of the night.

I am guilty of this as well. It is a sick habit that mothers somehow instill in us. It's like an unspoken law that we are meant to send feces through the phone line for them to dispose of.

I love you.
