Hi Terry! This is funny. One of my favourite moments I share with my sister is when we're talking about our self-obsessed mom, who likes getting attention but doesn't show much interest in others (unless it's gossip). If I were to tell her I finished a masters degree, she'd just say "oh, that's nice", then divert our conversation to something she's done or is happy about (which is fine, of course). And my sister would say she'd done something worth celebrating but lose the spotlight in a second by our mom taking away the attention so that she could shine in people's eyes. (which is fine, again) Then, my sister and I would share glances and mouth the words, "It's all about me!" lol
