15 Things Darlene does

Darlene is my mother.

1. Darlene washes towels after each use. EVERY TIME. My family owns like 200 towels.
2. Darlene bakes homemade cinnamon rolls every year at Christmas time. She uses this as an excuse to bitch about making cinnamon rolls for everyone at Christmas time
3. Every time I call her, she answers the cell phone like she either just ran a 10k or had sex with my dad. Both would be equally demanding I guess.
4. Darlene has a blackberry headset and no blackberry
5. Darlene sends me emails at work with her message in the subject line, and nothing in the body of the email. These range from "ARE YOU HAVING A STINKY DAY JESS?!" to "Almost time to go homeee!!!!!"
6. Darlene calls me approximately 14 times on Sundays
7. Darlene's actual first name is Leslie. She CHOSE to go by Darlene.
8. Darlene takes belly dancing, yoga, and salsa.
9. Darlene sends text messages often. When she sends a message, it's very in depth and can even include a photo or video. However, when sending Darlene a text asking for specific information or her opinion on an important matter, the most you will ever get back is "Yes" or "I dont know" or "Okay."
10. Darlene likes to quit her job every 3-4 years and redecorate a room or section of our house
11. Darlene drives a Mazda Tribute and calls it "her girl"
12. Darlene LOVES to say "welll.. the thang of it is..."
13. She calls TGI Friday's "TGIF's".
14. Darlene has a sick obsession with ordering kitchen gadgets off of infomercials. We have 15+ choppers/dicers/rotisserie chicken spinners/vacuum sealers... u name it- we have it.
15. She has actually said to me "I saw it on the TV"

I love my mother. :)
