Mom: (sound of chewing)mphmhph...
Me: Eh?
Mom: I said thanks.
Me: Dad make you breakfast?
Mom: Yup. Denver omelette, fresh squeezed orange juice, bacon, english muffins with orange marmalade and coffee.
Me: *sigh* I had some stale, recently discovered Nutter Butters for breakfast.
Mom: You should probably go grocery shopping.
Me: Thanks for the advice, mom of the obvious.
Mom: Hmph. Don't be snotty to me today.
Me: Fine. I'll call you tomorrow and be snotty.
Mom: Works for me. I'll just ignore you, anyway.
Me: I am going to be the better person here and forget you said that. So, what did dad get you?
Mom: Chocolates and flowers.
Me: Cute. Walgreens?
Mom: Fifteen minutes before I got up.
Me: I wonder what tipped him off?
Mom: There was something on T.V. about it being mother's day. I heard him cursing before he ran out the door.
Me: Thank goodness for 24-Hour Walgreens.
Mom: (laughs) Yes, although it would have been fun to make him squirm.
Happy mother's day to all you moms out there!
I'm off to...
See Van Hellsing like a good little automaton.
