Last weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to go home for the weekend- Since a couple of my roommates were going down to the Utah Valley as well we decided that we should all just carpool. So I set it up with my parents to meet me at the BYU creamery so that we could do the switcheroo. So as my car was pulling up to the creamery I called my mother and told her that we were just about to pull into the parking lot- and she told me that her and my dad (who were waiting inside) would come out to greet us.
So we pull in to the north parking lot and we wait....
and wait....
and wait some more. So I am trying to scan all the cars and figure out where my parents were- Well finally my mother calls me and in her 'I-am-so-frazzled-excited-voice' she asks me if I am in the north or south parking lot- I tell her north, she starts laughing then just hangs up on me. (I know very nice). Soon after I see my mother 'BOUNDING' around the corner with a huge grin on her face with my father walking closely behind. As she gets to me she starts telling me what all the excitement was about-
So I guess my parents went to the south parking lot instead of the north. Around the same time I said I was pulling up another car with 3 girls and one boy pulled up on the other side. Well my dear mother thinking that it was me excited-ly ran up to the back window (where there was a girl with long brown hair) and started POUNDING ON THE WINDOW while squealing with excitement.
Then with bewildered looks on the poor victims faces- my mother STILL didnt realize it was me. So she patiently waited on the side until they got out of the car. (I cant even write this with out busting a gut. :) Well the four get out of the car and my mother exclaims "your not Erin" hahahahaha.... so so funny. Well I guess they had a pretty good conversation because when she finally got ahold of me (her REAL DAUGHTER) she DRAGGED me into the creamery (complete with backpack, dufflebag, and pillow) searched the BUSY store for the victims rushed up to them- dragging me behind and says
"hey guys, hey... its me again- Nancy" (they were one first name basis apparently) and then continued to explain how she really wasn't crazy and that I was actually her REAL daughter. While I just sat next to her with my arms full of stuff and smiled. Finally I told them not to believe a word she said and that she really was crazy. But thats why we love her. hahahaha!
Then- we left. Never to see those poor victims again but I am quite positive that there is a story floating around BYU of a certain crazy woman who lerks around the creamery at nights... waiting to give strangers a scare by pounding on their windows.
hahahahaha! oh gosh. I hope you think this is funny. If you dont- you have no sense of humor.
I love you mom!!! your great! Craziness and all... :)
