Random text of the week ..

Last night Hayley says to me "Daisy isn't nice. She hisses and quills at me when I put my hand in the cage. She's not fun"

And today ... this text comes in (while she's supposed to be learning whatever you learn as a Junior in high school):

Hayley "Do you think ferrets are creepy?"

me "YES!!!!! Don't do it Hayley. I mean it. They stink. Bad."

Hayley "What about sugar gliders? You know .. the mini flying squirrels?"

At that point .. I had to actually had to call her. If I'm calling her ... it's to yell because a text just isn't loud enough.

"mom? you can't call me .. I'm in school"

"yes I know that ..nor should you be texting... in school"

"LISTEN CLOSELY ... IF YOU BRING ANOTHER ANIMAL IN MY HOUSE I WILL RUN AWAY. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME CLEARLY???"

"yes mom. I heard you. I won't"

"HAYLEY I MEAN IT ... I WILL RUN AWAY AND NOT TELL YOU WHERE I AM GOING. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS???"

"yes mom. It means I would have to live with dad. I promise I won't bring anything home."

Hang up. Inhale. Exhale.
