Emergency Phone Call

[richlayers]

Mom called me while I was in class this morning. My phone was on silent, but I still heard it buzzing in the middle of class, and I'm pretty sure people around me could hear it, too.

I found out a little later that she was calling me to tell me that Neil Gaiman won the Newbery Award for The Graveyard Book.

I told her, "Don't call me when I'm in class unless it's an emergency!"

Her response? "It was!"

How cute! My family always did that when I was in class and then later on when I was working. And they'd always say, "Oh, are you busy?" Well, duh! Sometimes I wonder about them because it was never as important as Neil Gaiman winning the Newbery. :)

Your mom rocks.

And I'd have you know that you are reading my favorite book Of All Time. Just sayin.
