My Son Has A Bigger Blog Than Me (Formerly Do Not Drive And Pretend To Tweet)

August 10, 2010

in Awkward, My Family

We are driving.

Well, Scott is driving. I don’t even have to remember if that’s true. Because it is. I hate driving. Conflictingly enough, I also hate Scott driving.  Because he’s a bad driver.  After multiple arguments over me NOT WANTING TO DRIVE and me TELLING HIM HOW TO DRIVE, we’ve compromised (marriage, eh?  I’m also thinking of becoming a Canadian blogger.) and now I spend most of our drive quietly looking like this:

Hand covering eyes

FYI: It's hard to take a self-portrait while covering your eyes.

Back to the car… Scott and I are discussing deep and insightful stuff while I silently pray for a quick death due-to-driving-skill.

Suddenly E interrupts (not sure if you can interrupt without suddenness. I’ll try this week and let you know. Or forget. Anyway.) E says: Don’t talk, Dada. I’m tweeting out my blog.

Me (to Scott): E has a big blog. He told me yesterday.

E: Mama! DON’T TALK! I’m tweeting out my BIG blog.

A few minutes of uncomfortable silence goes by as I watch E use an imaginary iPhone to get on Twitter.

E: Okay, you can talk now. I’m done tweeting out my blog.

Me (to Scott): See? I don’t make them wait long.

Scott: Oh, I don’t think you say that to the kids.

Me: Well, that’s very nice to think.
