debrief sketch

TODAY was 
HARD

& I MAY not have 
DONE  RIGHT*

*I think now that I am decompressed

I am pretty sure 
BUT 
not certain 

I was supposed to go to lunch with my mom today to catch up on her
health information 

ANYWAY 
she maybe has something going on
BUT 
it's HARD for me to TELL 
WHAT 
& HOW BAD

because 
EVERYTHING she says is CRAFTED 
& her "facts" don't check out

I don't WANT to detail the situation 

the surgeon appointment got rescheduled 
because he had a family thing

I'll give a vignette 
I wanted to check her oxygen 
she LOST the finger thing-y
must have rolled to the passenger side of the car 
OK
WAIT 
where was it before you lost it
in my purse, but I checked in my purse
-- it's definitely not in there --

OK
CHECKING purse
BAM*

*right there under that kleenex 

SO
I put it on her finger 
I come BACK 
it's OFF

what was your oxygen 
eighty eight
which isn't great
BUT 
whenever she takes her oxygen, eighty eight 
whenever, every time she tells her doctor 
eighty eight 

SO
I take it, ninety five
I take it again ninety six

eighty eight is not bad as the bottom of a range

& she MAY BE having a problem 
BUT 
she's ACTING like 
she's WORKING me

SO
I was pretty non-performative
EMOTIONALLY 
& I was for SURE a little mean

BUT 
I kept hearing thanksgiving day parade 
in my HEAD 
& I can't tell you how it helped me
