My mother...lol

Okay! So...I just have to blog about my mother and how funny she has become to me over the years. I remember when I was young, like under 18, and she would embarrass the hell out of me, but now, she is probably one of the funniest people I have ever met.

First off, she cries in EVERY movie. When someone gets married, she cries. When someone dies, she cries. When there is a sweet moment, she cries! When there is a romantic moment, she cries! Yep! She cries in every movie!

Not only does she cry in movies, she cries in life. If one of us kids is leaving, even for summer camp which is like an hour away, she gets emotional over it! If we are graduating or if we win an award, she cries. Maybe she has finally hit menopause!

She holds on for dear life when me or my siblings are driving. Its the funniest thing ever, watching her holding on, her knuckles white, the handle of the door looking like its going to come off. I can't help but laugh at her. "Its fine mother...don't worry!" We all try to reassure her.

She gets addicted to TV shows. She plops down in the lazy-boy and begins watching everything from "Americas Next Top Model" to "CSI". She will get herself all addicted to them and then want me to look up *spoilers* for her! Its hilarious. I am like "mother, that is last season, here, I can just tell you who won!" to which she is like "Well...okay..."

She also forgets where she puts things all the time. She was putting away food the other day, and she accidentally put the garlic salt in the refrigerator. I was like "mother, are you feeling well?" and she insisted that she was fine. When she asked me why I told her and she was like "oh...I am getting old..." Another time, her glasses were on the top of her head and she was asking me where she put them...I swear, she would lose her head if it were not attached to her neck!

When she is drunk, she is CRAZY! She pulled the string to one of my sisters friends bikini's once and the girl had to catch it before she flashed the world. My sister was mortified as was her friend. She also thinks everything is hilarious when she is drunk...You can say anything, and she laughs. Her friends are really funny when they are drunk too. Once, they tried karaoke...OMG! I have never heard such horrid singing in my life. I had to cover my ears!

I love to scare her! I will pop out of corners of the house and be like "boo!" and she will go "Jesus!" Its really funny! Then I go "What does Jesus have to do with it?"

Another time, my sibs and I had captured a spider in a jar, and we put it in the shower when she had to get up and get ready for work...Hahaha! She ran around screaming trying to kill it. Yeah...We had fun!!!

Today, when she found out about who had died, she shouted "What!? Michael Jackson and Farah Fawcett BOTH died?!" and everyone at work starred. Then her co-workers ran around talking about it. Hahaha!

Another time, her co-worker Tim called her to get a gallon of milk from the back area, and she reached out to grab the milk, and someone on the other end grabbed it too and also grabbed her wrist and she started screaming. We need a camera to follow her and tape her every move. America's Funniest Home Videos would love it!!!

And there you have it...My mother! She is one of the funniest people I know! She doesn't mean to be, she just is! I love her to death!!!
