Notes from Dad

I really like the story about Cameron. He's such a whipper snapper (as "one might say"). The only things funnier than zombies are crackaddicts (or crackbabies).

So Pure Foreigner, you inquired about text messages from my father figure (or Daddy Bear as he is so fondly referred to)? Well for example, one day I received a text from him that said "congrats. ur livin right, GIRL".

First of all, lets just point out the obvious question that this text message poses: why the hell is girl capitalized?

Other than that... the text message related to nothing in particular nor was it a response to a text I sent him. Maybe he was just reminding me that i'm female... hm...



My dad's text message almost topped the charts on my silly text messages list. I got one from my mother that said "ran into mr. anti... she wants 2 talk 2 u abt ur thong"

FIRST of all... "mr. anti" is actually a woman named Ms. Durante.

Second... WHAT? can we say awkward?

I later queried her about what the hell that was suppost to mean and she just said "i try to make you laugh".

I think she was drunk.


You know how they have books about online teenager language? I might just start one about parents lame attempt at text messaging and horrible use of abbreviations (which just ends up in you wondering if your parents drank too many glasses of wine or polished a whole bottle of scotch).

To come next: some of my father's crazy southern expressions.
