Safe Sex for Strangers

Backstory: My mother got a text from someone she didn’t know and decided to play along. She sent me the conversation.

Stranger: “So when you go to get plan B pill do you have to ask for it?”
Mom: “Yes, speak to a pharmacist. Who is this?”
Stranger: “Mike?”
Mom: “No, wrong number. good luck”
Stranger: “This is Kevin, right?”
Mom: “No. But you may need to talk to planned parenthood to get it. Don’t forget to wear a condom! I am a concerned mom. good luck!”

To My Three Daughters

Backstory: My Mom recently learned how to text and likes to send mass text messages to my three sisters and me, no matter the occasion.

Goodnight bitches!!! Hahaha

Nope, Not Reassuring

Backstory: I was whining to my mom about a guy in my education course who is incapable of giving coherent explanations of his thoughts. We’re both sticklers for grammar, but apparently that’s not her only concern.

And he’s going to be a teacher. Btw, I wonder about your language skills when you use whore instead of whose. Or maybe it’s just that you use that word more often when texting. Nope, that’s not reassuring either.

Texting Out of Boredom

Mom: send me the link to your movie!
Me: ok go on skype
Mom: can’t. internet is out due to wind. just e-mail me. also i talked to gma gpa today. they will call you soon.
Me: ok. are you texting me out of boredom because there is no internet?
Mom: yes.
Mom: trees down. roads closed. power out for some.
Me: you could do a puzzle or something.
Mom: yep.
Mom: (picture message of my dog)

Getting Into the Texting Habit

Backstory: My mom recently bought a phone with a qwerty keyboard for the purposes of texting so she could keep in closer touch. After a weekend of texts that said things like “ha ha, I’m texting you”, I stopped getting texts, so I emailed her to ask why.

Okay this weekend I am charging up my phone and getting at it.  And if I don’t text please phone me and remind me.  I just don’t even think of it.  I have to make it part of my life, like a habit.  Like wine or smokes.
