To preface, this happened yesterday and I'm still processing and trying to come to terms with the fact that this is what I have to live with moving forward for the rest of my life. So I had a stressful week with school, work, running errands, arranging pets sitting while I'd be gone, numerous other unnecessary stressors, changing of plans, and packing for my week-long trip to Virginia. Yesterday in particular was super stressful. I came home from an overnight stay at my new sexual partner's place, Mary. I was texting Mary, my best friend, my sister-in-law, my stepdad, and my mom all at the same time. You can probably guess what happened here. I was texting Mary. We were reflecting on the night before and my mom suddenly texted wishing my sister and I a safe trip and all that good stuff a mom would text. And I finished my text to Mary and was replying to my best friend who had already been texting prior to my mom. While I was texting my best friend, I received a question mark, text from my mom, which left me confused for a split second because I hadn't responded to her yet. Lo and behold, of course I sent the inappropriate text to my mom instead of Mary. Fuck my life. I'm mortified to say the least. My soul left my body. I screamed my lungs out for the next 10 minutes trying to decide if this is the sign to jump off a bridge. Sorry mom, you don't deserve any more gray hairs than this. And you're welcome to cringe with me and laugh at me.
