“Mommmmmm, I thought calling you from the road right before I got there would be good enough!!”

Wrong, Sweetie.

But it’s all right now. And next time she’ll know better.

But. . . shouldn’t this be a lesson kids learn when they’re really young? Hahaha, did I say that?

Item: My mom is going on a road trip with some of her friends in the morning and she called me tonight to let me know where she’ll be, who she’s with, and when she’ll be back.

‘Must be from all those years of reminding me to tell her the same things.

And of course I NEVER went anywhere without telling Mom. Never, ever, ever.

Oh now really, did any of you believe that?

Maybe that’s why I worry so hard about Belle and Zappa. I’m not so old yet that I’ve forgotten these things. . . . .

Oh well. She’s safe and that’s all that’s important.
