Ill Communication
I’ve reached a new level in communication with Tyler… yes, that’s right, text messaging!
He had a doctor’s appointment with the ENT doctor, his dad took him….
[Me] How’s Tyler?
[Response] I’m fine
[Another response] And i love you
Now my initial response is what in the buttered fuck is his dad saying bullshit like that to me for???? Then I snapped to and realized Tyler had his dad’s phone…oh….
[Me] Tell Tyler that I love him too and that I can’t wait to hear what they pull out of his ear this time.
[Tyler] Tubes are fine. Follow up in six months.
[Tyler] They pulled a huge piece of earwax about the size of a half dollar. Just kidding! They didn’t pull anything like that! And I love you!
[Tyler] are you still there?
[Tyler] OMG!! Send me a message!
[Tyler] Please!
[Tyler] Now would be great
[Me] OMG indeed! You little texter! I’m LOL! Luv u 4ever!
[Me] JHC you text a lot. You need more hobbies or maybe more chores!
[Tyler] Maybe you could get me a phone!!!!!!!! Pelase!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Me] NO way, not until you learn how to spell (see please attempt above). And let’s see how you do with keeping up with your earplugs and other important things first, Mister!
[Tyler] Bye mom. dad’s phone is dying I love you
Wouldn’t your day go better with messages from your tween son saying that he loves you? Maybe he will get a phone of his own- that only calls/texts me.
