Ok, I have a good one for you… I know this lady, we will lovingly refer to her as Mama Dee 💕
Mama Dee is the funniest, most big hearted, loving person! She’s like everyone’s Mom and everyone’s cool Aunt all wrapped into one. And she is absolutely FASCINATING! I mean the stories that she has told me over the years are so impressive and cool and entertaining as h***! But, this story, has been my absolute favorite by far…!
Let me set the scene for you… we were all sitting around the campfire, drinking, talking, and swapping stories. Can you feel the fresh air and hear the crackling fire yet??? My happy place!
Anyways, the conversation had switched to technology. Phones, tablets, streaming, the internet, etc. Mama Dee starts telling us all about her grandson and what a wiz he is with technology.
“Oh, he teaches me everything, how to operate my smart phone, how to text, how to email, everything! If I have a question, he’s the first person I go to! Well, you guys know me, when I’m home, by myself, I like to be just as God made me, in nothing but my birthday suit. No kidding, the second I get home from wherever and that front door closes behind me, I immediately strip down and go about my business.” (All I could picture was this:)
“My Grandson being the techno-nerd that he is had gotten me an H-Box. What the h*** am I going to do with an H-Box?! Well, he told me that I can play games, or watch movies, I don’t know all it does, but he showed me some stuff it can do, and it’s actually pretty cool, I like it a lot! (We interrupted her and asked what an H-Box is). You know, that thing that plays video games and stuff. Oh, you mean an X-Box?! Yeah, that thing!” (We all laughed).
“So, as per usual, I’m hanging out at home. I had just made myself dinner and I sat down on the couch and popped on my TV. I look at the screen and go, “What the h*** is THAT?!” So, I put on my glasses, and look again… what the h*** kind of show is this? It’s just some old lady, sitting on a couch, NAKED! — when it hit me that somehow the video chat camera was on and it was ME! I fumble around on the couch trying to get up as fast as I could waving my arms around and yelling, “H-BOX OFF!!! H-BOX OFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!”
Ok, I’m legit dying by this point. I was laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe, I was crying, and I’m pretty sure I did a spit-take during her story. Then, she continues…
“And if THAT wasn’t traumatizing enough, I just know there’s some picture somewhere floating around on the world wide web of my old a** naked as a Jaybird! Nobody wants to see THAT!”
Again, we were all laughing so hard we couldn’t breathe! We explained to her that it was probably just the camera that was on, it wasn’t probably streaming to anything… but she was convinced and honestly she is right. There could be a chance it was streaming, but hopefully not!
