You know...
You know that you are living in a Looney bin when such things happen.
Situation: My mom and me are in her room, alone. She is on the bed. I am messing with my antique fone, which I am surprised is still working.
Mom: Hebu, Tara (my mom calls me that) come here.
Me: *walk to my mom… still messing with my fone… stand at her bedside*
Mom: What are you doing?
Me: Nothing much, messaging a friend. *I stop messing with my fone and look at her*
Mom: *stares at me*
Me: *stares at my mom*
Mom: *stares back at me*
Me: *stares back at my mom*
Mom: *stares back at me*
Me: *stares back at my mom*
Mom: *stares back at me*
Me: *stares back at my mom*
Mom: What do you want?
Me: Nothing, you called me
Mom: *thinks* Oh, I wanted to call Amu (my other sister)
*sigh*
Ok, we my sister taught my mom how to email and stuff… so she is now, constantly on the PC… checking her mails… even though she has already checked them… anyhow, that’s a different story.
I was sitting in the same room… and she turns around an says:
Mom: “*worried tone*… I think they have locked our internet! We paid the bill... but still they stopped out internet !!
Me: what? Locked?
Mom: *panicking* yea see… at the bottom of the page there is a lock sign!!!
And then…
Mom: *furious* This internet is not working… my page is showing an error.
Me: ok, just close the browser and open a new one.
Mom: *closes browser*
Me: *get back to doing what I was doing… ironically… I was blogging this post*
Mom: *cursing* it is not working! *furiously clicking on the icon in the taskbar*
Me: *looking at what she is doing* Maaa… you are pressing the wrong icon! That is the show desktop icon!

:D Your mom is funny.
I have to warn you... teaching parents how to use PCs is largely a pointless exercise. If your mom is anything like my dad, she'll forget in 2 days if she decides to stop using it for a bit.
Hem: yea man.. my mom is... actually i think all moms are :)
No... my mom is relentless... it has been more than a week now... i come home from work... and she is at the PC... it is the only thing... other than going to the wash room... that takes her out of the room :P
What a crazy life you must live.
Also I cant believe youve become the PC expert :P ... how did that formatting excercise go?
Ali: Sht up. I can use the internet browser... i am still strategically contemplating my move about the formatting part :P
God, your life is like a cartoon series. I love it :D
rana: waana live it?
