1) My mother called me on my way to the airport, right before my flight to Houston. She just wanted to remind me to bring my cell phone.
2) My sister is thinking of buying a house and expanding her family, both actions heartily approved by my mother. Her sage advice: “buy a house with a bedroom on the first floor. I don’t want you to fall down the stairs while pregnant!”
3) “Who are you going to vote for?” asks Mom, unprompted by me. I was a bit shocked and a little concerned about what was coming next, having long ago sworn never to talk politics with her (I tried bringing up Kerry in 2004 and got a mouthful about Jane Fonda for some reason).
“Uh, I’m voting for Obama,” I said.
“Good! Me too. McCain is stupid!” Launches into rant about dumb ol’ McCain and his trophy wife. Turns out my mom is AWESOME.
