Conversations with Allison

Yesterday Allison Toney’s Facebook update read:

Allison: update on JennyCook…baby is here on 2/11, Rosalie Mildred, 9lbs 5.9oz…she doesn’t have internet access right now.

This is our conversation that followed:

8:31pm
Melissa

So your status update makes it seem like the kid doesn’t have internet access yet

8:32pm
Allison

She doesn’t. Her computer died two weeks ago

8:33pm
Melissa

The baby, though. Like the kid is going to pop out an email while mom’s napping

8:33pm
Allison

Oh, you’re right. It does look like that

That’s funny

8:34pm
Melissa

I think it’s hilarious

Allison

Well, she was bugging me to start her a facebook account. I told her she had to wait until 14. She said I was being unreasonable, ran into her bedroom, and slammed the door

That’s the second time I’ve laughed out loud during this conversation and my dog has barked at me


The first time I laughed out loud in our chat conversation was when I was telling Allison about the accident that totaled my car. The first time I’d just told her about the accident when apparently her cat fell off the desk and pushed a few keys on the way down. The particular keys pushed made it look like Allison was asking my blood/alcohol level was below or above the limit. I responded that I was sober then she told me about the cat.

I believe the keys went something like: .3?0/+. Keep in mind I had no idea that a cat fall was involved. I thought she was just responding to my story.
