Quality Time With My Mom

CONTEXT: Lunch at my favourite sushi place and I just complained about my mom nagging me.

Mum: "Just you wait and see, if you don't end up nagging your kids, then my name isn't Zhou (Her maiden name)."

Me: Pause. "But your name isn't Zhou." (Her name is Jacobs now.)

Mum: Silence. Then she starts back peddling.

Me: 1 Mom: 0

CONTEXT: Working at Starbucks. I'm on my laptop. She's doing a cross stitch. There is a hyper little boy looking over her shoulders and peppering her with questions.

Mum: He's so annoying.

Me: But you want grandkids. This is good practice.

Mum: They won't be like this.

Me: You never know.

Me: 2 Mom: 0

Hehehehehe....
