It involves my mother standing over it and saying things like, &#8220;Don&#8217;t worry about calling me, I know you&#8217;re busy&#8221; and &#8220;No, really, it&#8217;s okay that you got married without me there; you&#8217;re just my only daughter.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Eventually, the guilt builds up in layers. Done properly, the guilted gold shines so brightly that it reflects all of the disappointment on her face. (&#8220;All my friends have grandchildren.&#8221;) Once it&#8217;s completed, the sealing layer is applied (&#8220;Don&#8217;t mind me, I&#8217;ll just sit here in the retirement home in the dark&#8221;).<\/p>\n<p>So you can see what an intensive and soul-crushingly painstaking process guilting gold is. Really, would it kill you to pay $3,000 to keep your mother&#8217;s love intact? After all she&#8217;s done for you? Selfish ingrates.<\/p>\n<p>This post was sent in by Lesley &#8212; thanks!<\/p>\n<p>*This may not actually be true.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of a Kind Sideboard &#8211; $3000 Decorator Redecorating!!!!!
