Mom Alert!

Well, we're heading off to see my mom this weekend. To give you some background...my mom has lived in the same condo for over five years and I've never seen it. Now, some would say that's unforgivable...how can a daughter treat her own mother so bad! Shame on me! To that I would say: you don't know my mother. But nonetheless...we're taking the journey and she's already driving me crazy.
















The phone conversation...this morning....7:52 am.

Mom: So, are you excited.
Me: Yes Mom.
Mom: Are you sure, you don't sound excited.
Me: Mom, I'm excited, really. It's just that it's 7:52 in the morning.
Mom: So, will you call me to tell me if you get your flight (we're flying stand-by...and note...we've had this same conversation about 752 times!).
Me: Yes Mom...I told you already that I would.
Mom: Well, do you think you'll get on? You'll call me when you find out, right?
Me: (Thinking to myself...for God's sake woman...YES!!!) YES!!!!
Mom: Calm down...we're only talking. Anyways...I don't think I'm going to come pick you up.
Me: What are you talking about? You've been bothering me to come and visit for like a half of a century and now you won't come pick us up?
Mom: Okay...I'll come get you.

See now here...this is what I was talking about in UnderCURRENTS (see last entry)...she's just trying to piss me off...clearly!
