Manical Laughter

So I called my mom today to ask her about a vision/dream/something that I’d been having for the last few days.

As I fall asleep, I can distinctly hear my mother calling me on the phone and telling me that her mother has passed away. My 3 year old adopted sister is in the background asking why she (My mother) is crying. As this happens, I get a stabbing needle like pain in the arch of my left foot.

Odd huh.

As I’m getting ready to get off the phone with my mom, I’m thinking to myself that it’s odd she didn’t wish me a happy birthday or anything.

Then she tells me that she’ll talk to me in a couple of days since “you have a birthday in a couple of days....uh...one day...”

Me: “MOM!”

Mom: “Oh my God, it’s today. Today’s your birthday! I didn’t realize what day it was!”

Now, my mom has been really stressed out with job issues and raising a three year old. She’s like me, unless you keep her on track with the day of the week/month, she’s semi-unaware of what day it is.

I found it more amusing than anything else. No offense taken and it added a nice spot of humour to the day.

Though you know, I’ll not let her forget her “senior moment” for a while. *grin*
