Mum sent me a package.
YOU KNOW IT'S THAT TIME
Inside was:
A full issue of the sunday comics, neatly folded
An entire issue of the sunday coupons section of the paper
A valentine's day card with five dollars inside
A box of Pocky
A box of "cranberry frogs" which are like normal "frogs" (pecans and caramel covered in chocolate) except with cranberries in
A pad of post-it notes
A packet of pork gravy mix
An ad for "sticky toffee cheese"
And an Ikea ad, which was nice, except it's like I'm being taunted with how I will never own a nice couch.
People have suggested that the randomness of these packages hides some kind of secret message, but if it does, it's beyond me. I love her packages, I just very rarely understand them.

Date: 2012-07-18 08:30 pm (UTC)WOW.
Actually, that's not quite all. You have some mom. She appears to have her own kind of logic that differs from other people's, but that keeps life interesting, right?

After all, you said you liked pork gravy mix eight years ago during that tornado in the middle of the night while you were sleepwalking.
