I hate mother's day. Seriously. Not that I hate mothers; in fact, I love YOUR mother. But there's just something that rubs me the wrong way about a day where you are OBLIGATED to show someone you love them.
All of a sudden, you have to go out of your way to do something special for your mommy even though you talk to her like once a season. Or maybe you talk to her every day and get along really great, but if on this day you don't have something great planned, you've somehow let them down. Not doing something special for mother's day has NEGATED all the nice things you've done over the rest of the year.
Mother's day is the busiest restaurant day of the year. Busier than Valentine's, New Year's Eve, Halloween, or Patriot's Day. Why? Because if you don't take her out to dinner, you're a bad child. And the amount of extravagance lavished upon your mom on this day (and this day only) is directly proportional to how much you love her.
P.S. I'm not in any maternal trouble or anything.
