Seriously, Mom?
Setting: Our dog sleeps in the kitchen, but he has several rules about that. 1. No leaky faucets. 2. No insects that buzz/make noise. 3. He will make random demands to come into the house in the middle of the night. 4. There has to be a night light.
Me: Mom, the night light in the kitchen burnt out. I took the extra one in the bathroom for [the dog].
Mom: Really? Are you sure. He might not like that one. He's picky.
Me: What??? It's a night light.
Mom: Just make sure. He's picky.
Note to self: Seriously, Mom?

Moms are funny
Setting: driving my mother around town. Mother not totally computer literate, just functional enough to send short emails with no attachments and use accounting software.
Mother: The other day I had to go help [insert name of friend/former employer], and I had to use the old software to do some work. But the license ran out already because it was from a few years ago. You know what I did?
Me: No, what did you do?
Mother: I changed the clock on the computer. I turned it to 2008 and it let me use the software again!
This is why she is great. Yar, sail those seas, Mommy!
