Yo Momma
What is it with mothers and email? I'm not complaining about my mom cause she's actually pretty awesome when it comes to email and technology, but I found it interesting when I read in the Globe and Mail today about two women that started a website called "Postcards from yo momma" based entirely on the strange and cryptic emails we receive from our mothers. I found it pretty amusing so I thought I'd go through the emails I've received from my own mother to see if she had written any gems. Feel free to add your own gems.
"Can you describe for me again the following exercises - I can't remember.
If that doesn't work give your cell phone to your cat and have her video you doing the exercises and send to me.
Triceps - Overhead tricep Press
- French Press
Hamstring - Hip lift on ball
Ciao"
Not my mom, another mom:
"What can I say,but "CONGRATULATIONS!" on achieving this great honour for your hard work and ok being a"smarty pants"Don't be offended it's a term of jealousy/endearment.Keep on the path."
From the site:
