Pretzels, Bunnies and Chocolate…OH MY!!!

So, this morning, I am talking to my Mom. There is a bag of chocolate covered pretzels in the bed. And then…..


ME:  Mom, why do you have chocolate covered pretzels in the bed?

MOM:  Oh..those aren’t mine.

ME:  Ummmmm

MOM:  Gloria gave them to me…I’m not eating them.

ME:  Well…why is the top of the bag ripped open and half of them are gone?

MOM:  She gave them to me like that.

ME:  (Smirk)

MOM:  …and I have a chocolate covered bunny that stays under the bed. He likes chocolate covered pretzels.

ME:  (side eye)

MOM:  I let him come out sometimes…just to chat.

ME:  Are you still sleep?

MOM:  No…

ME:  I got a message from Aunt Phyllis…I need to catch up with her today.

MOM:  My sister is crazy as sh*t. I am beginning to wonder which of my sisters is the nuttiest!

ME:   Mom….you JUST said that you have a chocolate covered bunny who likes chocolate covered pretzels that lives under your bed. And…oh yeah.. that you occasionally chat with!    I think YOU ARE!!

ME:  No, Mom…a projection of Prince. (Justin is singing and playing the piano)

MOM:  Who is that singing? I thought Justin Timberlake was doing the half time show?

ME:  That IS Justin Timberlake

MOM:  (puzzled look) I thought Justin Timberlake was white

ME:  He IS

MOM:   Ummmm… that boy singing is not white!!!
