So, at work today Lauren found this amazing blog about conversations people have with their mothers that is run by one of the editors at jezebel (the greatest blog in the world). Amazing again:
http://postcardsfromyomomma.com/
And it is so reminiscent of the sort of conversations I have with my Mother, which usually consist of me trying to provoke her and her ignoring me, that it has inspired me to share some of the most memorable conversations I've had with her in the past week. Some include third parties because like i said, my mother tends to ignore me if she thinks the request is ridiculous.
Convo 1.
on gchat last night:
Lynn: grandma and granpa are leaving tomorrow
Lynn: so we will be all alone for over a week!!!
me: what are you crazy kids going to do!
me: get drunk, throw a crazy party
Lynn: plan for alaska
me: have sex on their bed naughty naughty

Lynn: we booked our cruise for 2009

me: haha ignoring me?

I haven't blogged about the mysteriousness that is T. O. Young before. And now i don't have to because he did. But I dont like it when people steal my discussion topics, so I'm going to give it the good ole' college try before he is passe.
I am by the way singing Brandy by Looking Glass, which is an awesome song. I'm sure you care on some level.
So Tommy. Hm. He is a heart breaker. Can't you tell by his white unbuttoned shirt, smooth chest and long raven hair? He broke my heart today. And he has broken it many times previously when he strums his ukulele and sings "Over the Rainbow." Oh wait, that was Jason Castro. I love American Idol.
Tommy and i often go on long walks to talk about life. Usually the conversations somehow returns to his extreme hatred of all the things I love, which is probably why he needs me around. To brighten up his otherwise sad and lonely existence, because after reading this list you will probably also need a hug. Tommy hates: forts, sleepovers, love, kittens, cupcakes, being fancy, emoticons and me wasting his time when I run around in the Cloisters parking lot.
That list may stem from his annoyance with my antics (like that could happen!), but you don't have to take my word because his blog is all about things that get on his nerves. I can only hope I am a post in the near future. Sigh.
Anyways, check it out: Tommy's Rough and Manly Blog
