If you’re anything like me, you call your mom at least three times a day – sometimes eight. And if your mom is anything like mine, she finds it slightly annoying but humors you when you tell her about the socks you’re wearing. On average, there are things you can only call your mom about.
1. The cute animal you just saw.
*Calls mom.* *She doesn’t answer.* *Calls back.*
Mom: “What’s up?”
Me: “I just called to tell you about the cute gosling I just saw.”
This is an actual conversation I have had.
2. What you had for lunch.
*Proceeds to tell her exactly what you ate down to the number of fries.*
3. When you’re sick and need to know what medicine to take.
Mom: “For the last time, take an antihistamine.”
4. When you’re walking to class.
Me: “Just walking to class. Thought I’d say hi.”
5. How your exams went.
Hopefully, other people care about this one as well, but you know you call your mom first.
6. When you get done shopping.
Your mom is the only one who cares about that 75 percent off shirt from J Crew or that swimsuit from Target.
7. When you need to make a doctor’s appointment.
I’m 21 and still have my mom make my appointments.
8. When you’re heartbroken.
Enough said.
9. When you have drama.
Me: “You will not believe what Stephanie just did!"10. Everything and all things female related.
“Can I die if I skip my period?” “Can I wear a tampon for 14 hours?” “How do you wash a bra?”
11. When your pet does anything.
Sadie just sneezed and it was adorable? Better call Mom.
12. When something funny happened to you but it’s really not that funny.
Only your mom would think it was funny.
13. When Brian, Austin, Chad, Dylan, etc. hasn’t texted you back and the anxiety is eating you alive.
PSA I have never texted a boy with these names.
We can’t take our moms for granted, they put up with a lot of stuff.
