If I could be any female celebrity I'd be Mandy Moore.
I'm not ashamed to say I like her tweets, her music and most of her movie choices.
Judge me if you will but I think every one has a celebrity alter ego and she's mine.
But right now I'm kind of itching to not be in her fictional skin.
If you've seen Because I Said So this will make SO much more sense but regardless, enjoy.
Mom, text: Hi. Don't ask questions.
What was the name of the broker you dated a few years ago? Was it Jason?
Me: What? No, it was Kevin. Why?
silence.
Me: Mom?
Next came a call from my mom. I answered hesitantly.
Me: What are you doing?
Mom: I found a 27 year old broker named Jason on JDate and I think he'd be perfect for you.
Me: silence.
Me: (stuttering for five minutes)
Why are you looking at 27 year olds on JDate?
Mom: Nothing. Absolutely nothing. It's fine.
Go to bed, it's late.
Me: Mom...please stop. Please. Mom? (more stuttering)
Mom: I have to go now. Goodbye. (hangs up)
Me, text to mom: Can you please stop being Diane Keaton now?
Mom: You may be pleasantly surprised. You can thank me later. HAGN.

And yes, my mother created her own text slang for Have a good night.
Your mom is awesome. And I love her text slang, she is so into the now, she knows what all us hip kids are doing.
ReplyDeleteI always liked Many Moore. Did you ever see her in that religious parody movie?
ReplyDeleteI like MM too. I feel for you. My mom came close to the doing same thing. Ugh!
ReplyDeleteToo funny! My mom found a man for me last year, boasting that he knit and lived in Midtown like me. So it was no surprise when she called later and said he was gay.
