Mommed


One sunny Spring afternoon in January (yesterday to be exact) I was sitting at my internship desk sorting files, resizing images and organizing a pretty stinkin' gorgeous layout (if I do say so myself) when suddenly my phone started to buzz. The caller I.D. read: "Mama Mia". I smiled, flipped it open and answered quietly,

Me: "Hi, Mom."

Mom: "Hi, Lou. Uh...you know those earphone things you used to have?"

Me: "My earbuds? Yeah, I still have them."

Mom: "No...you used to have them."

Me: (pause)

Mom: "I accidentally ran over them with the vacuum and they're in pieces..."

Me: (pause)..."Hahahaha"



Hahaha. Still laughing.
I love my mom!

Sorry, Apple.

Ha-ha-ha! I love it! "No you used to have them"
That's so funny. I also love the picture of the broken pieces scattered about.

I don't know why I just found this, but I laughed myself to tears. Thank you for that! :)
