my mom

[Greg]

You are the good son. Talking to your mother.

I am the bad son. I sent my mother's calls to voice mail on the land line and the mobile. She has recently cottoned to the fact that I don't pick up if she calls me on my cell phone. The reception for those calls is always poor here at the Lair, so I don't bother. That goes for pretty much everything. And I have told people to call me on the land line if they want to talk to me at my home. I am always at home. My mother always called on my cell until recently she learned about the land line.

I knew she was calling on the land line last night because I knew she'd want to talk to me about talking with DM's Steinbeck friend that had talked to my mother. Nothing I like more than talking to my mother about Steinbeck.
