Conversations with "The boys"


Now that I am raising an adolescent our conversations sometimes look a little bit different than they did a few years back... but I'm pretty "DOPE" so I can keep up with the parenting trends.

So sometimes our convos come through this:

Tonight I had one such unexpected conversation with Bud.

Let me set the stage for y'all

Homework time.. Bud is less than 20 feet from me working on his Algebra.

My BB beeps, notifying me that I have received a text.  Thinking it's either Princess playing with her new android or Shawna<--BFF... I quickly take a look.

I see this:

FROM BUD: "Hey, you wanna compare answers?"


eeerrrrrrrr .... bishhhhh <---stop the bus

Chief: confused ... thinks silently: Huh?  What the hell?  saying out loud "What are you talking about Bud?"

Bud: replies "Whut?"

Chief: "Compare answers to what?"

Bud: " Huh?" obviously getting nervous

Chief: "  BUD, YOU JUST TEXTED ME FROM ACROSS THE ROOM!  WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING?"   I so am not in the mood to deal with dumbasses tonight

Bud: "Oh.... woops.... I thought I was texting Brooklyn"  sweat beads starting to form

Chief: "You are grounded"

suddenly we hear a matter of fact comment from behind the computer in the living room



Booger: "Ha Ha BUSTED!  I can't wait to tell Noah that Bud just got busted cheating.  What an idiot... Who texts his own mom asking to share answers?  He's such an embarrassment to the family."


Duke: "NO kidding!  Where did this kid come from?"

Booger: shaking his head  "Holy crap dad!  Have you heard of DNA?"

sigh...  pray for me

LOL!! That is hilarious!

What a way to get caught cheating.

Its not as bad as me sending a text (suggestive...ok dirty) to my daughter thinking I sent it to my hubby!!
As soon as I hit send I realized what I did! Damn blackberry messenger!

Priceless.

My kids love to text me from upstairs and it drives me bananas. I want to STEP hard on their stupid phones.

But it usually involves something other than trying to cheat on their homework - like they chipped a nail or the dog is drooling on their pillow.

I am living the high life, dontcha' know. ;D
