the last time I was home, i realized something about my mom who totally rules. Well actually this isn't a new realization, but one that started to grate on me. Here's what happened and maybe you can figure out what hte problem is...

we get in the car and drive to bellas, my fave b'fast restuarant. my mom gets the newpapers, gets into the car and sings "oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beuatiful day..." the entire song.

In bellas we were talking about being old and how it sucks to grow up. My mother immediately broke into another song "I wont grow up" from Peter Pan

On the way home I commented on something out of the window and this inspired my mom to break into song again.

Then during lunch preparations, she started to sing another song about heating up tea! How does this woman: A. know so many songs and B. know so many songs that apply to such specific situations?!! Like heating up tea for example, who knew that was a lyric in any song?! MY MOTHER!!

it's just weird because it's not like she was the star of stage and screen or something, she just sings for no apparent reason. IT'S WEIRD!! and this isn't a new thing, she's done it for years, but i think the afflication is getting worse.

UPDATE: JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH FRAN, AND I WAS TALKING ABOUT A TICKET I NEEDED TO GET FOR MY FRIEND NOAH'S WEDDING BUT HE HASN'T NAILED DOWN A DATE FOR HIS AUGUST NUPTUIALS. ANYWAY, MY MOM STARTED SINGING "SHE'S GOT A TICKET TO RIDE," INSTEAD OF LISTENING TO THE REST OF THE CONVO... SERIOUSLY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW ANYONE ELSE WITH THIS ILLNESS, PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP!!
