Txt msg

I've been stalking a very popular blog and this post made me laugh so hard I had to change my shorts, wipe the tears from my eyes, and pick myself up off the floor (those were not in any particular order). I had to share it. This is a mother talking about her teenage daughter intercepting and responding to the mother's sister's text messages.

You are really missing out if you've never visited the Pioneer Woman. Click the link and go read the "novella" (thanks Dr Hot Rod) Black Heels. You also will become a PW Stalker.

For the past month, unbeknownst to me, she’s been responding to Wetsy’s text messages any time I’ve been away from my phone—and when she responds, here’s the kicker: she poses as me. I finally figured out how to look back at text message threads last night, and I spent an hour reading exchanges like the following:
Wetsy: “Elliot is nursing right now.”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “Are you gonna eat your tots?”
Wetsy: “Huh?”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “Sorry. I get confused sometimes.”
Wetsy: “Huh?”

Wetsy: “Elliot weighs 14 pounds! We just got back from the doctor.”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “Your mama weighs 14 pounds.”
Wetsy: “Whatevs.”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “Are you gonna eat your tots?”

Wetsy: “How often did you feed your babies when they were 6 wks old?”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “I don’t have any babies.”
Wetsy: “Shut up! Seriously.”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “I like Twinkies.”
Wetsy: “Thanks for the help.”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “No problem, Muffinhead.”

Wetsy: “Oh my gosh—Elliot’s head smells sooooo good.”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “So do my feet.”
Wetsy: “Ewwwww!”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “Sorry. I get confused sometimes.”
Wetsy: “You’re weird these days.”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “There was one?”
Wetsy: “One what?”
My Girl, Posing as Me: “Are you gonna eat your tots?”
