[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 414815, member: 3419"] Yesterday I was sicker than a dog, throwing up for over an hr. I asked difficult child if he could get himself to the bus, etc. He said, "I always do." I went back to bed. difficult child texted that there was a dead snake in the middle of the road. (That is such a boy thing!) I texted back that I had seen it and it was a green garden snake. He texted back when he was on the bus. Later that afternoon, he texted b4 he left school--How R U? Actually, he texted, ?Como estas? (Because of his Mexican girlfriend, it's all about speaking Spanish.) [I]OMG, he actually asked about me.[/I] (Did h*ll freeze over?) I texted back, "Mucho mejor, pero no perfecto." (I have no idea if it's grammatical but it's close enough. :) ) Then I texted, "by the way, tienes beisbol miercoles a seis." (You have baseball Wednesday at six.) I'm still in shock that he asked how I was. Oh, and his new girlfriend is named Emily. The other girlfriend said she was breaking up with-him because it was too hard to have a relationship when they couldn't understand one another. :( I mean, how poignant is that? She meant the language barrier, but even when both partners speak the same language, isn't communication the key to it all? AND he told me about it on his own! Excuse me while I wax philosophical ... ;) :holymoly::its_all_good::thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
