A Mouse in the House
My dad’s precious chocolate bars were nimbled by a mouse. A few days later, the mouse ran across my dad’s foot. He thrashed around the room to catch him, but he escaped twice.
So, my dad put some pieces of chocolate in the mouse traps we have set up.
The chocolate has been eaten.
Still no mouse.
“WHO IS THIS MOUSE?! HOW DID HE GET SO SMART?!” - Dad

Mom Pulls An Awkward.com
My mom was explaining to me that electricity is not free (duh!).
Mom: You know, in the winter, I only take a shower every 3 days because I don’t sweat. It saves a lot of money.
Me: Ew!
Mom: But I wouldn’t recommend you do that, you’re young, you probably have sex.

State Of Emergency: Drunk Parents
So last night in the middle of the snow storm all the electricity goes out for a short period of time.The sad part is the cable didn’t come back! So the bored child gets the brilliant idea to have a bottle of wine!
Only two glasses later with parents in the kitchen…
Mom, “Hey I’m the only one without PJ’s on, I’m going to change.”
Dad, “Wait...

Just Don't Talk About Me
A week ago I had received “Anne Frank” on my Netflix and spoke to my dad about Miep, the woman who helped Anne Frank’s family, and how she was still alive at 100 years old. Well, Miep passed away. I told my parents the news and they joked that it wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t said something.
“Oh nice way to kill people!” - mom

You're No Fun Mrs. Hannigan
I complained to my dad about having to scrub down my bathroom in anticipation of weekend guests the same night that I was to get a manicure.
I tried to reason with my dad, saying that I’ve been trying to get my nails done for AGES but between my work schedule and other commitments it hasn’t happened.
He disappeared into the garage and came back to present me with…a pair of...

Parents Strike Back (Part 1)
Okay, so my daughter and her 9 month old son move back home in May. My husband and I are pretty much hands on with taking care of the baby while she works. I have often traded cars with her since mine was more reliable.
Well one day in October, after getting back my car from her, each time I get into my car there is this nasty smell (like dog crap). I check my shoes, the car mats, under the...

Me: but ur texting me

Me: nah, thought id be reckless
Dad: Wiseass.

Now Honey, Don't Let a Boy Pressure You....
My dad has a smart phone for work, and of course, he doesn’t know how to use it.
In fact, neither one of my parents really knows how to use their BlackBerries and Palms (and somehow, my mom thinks a Blackberry Storm or an iPhone is in her near future…), so emails remain un-read, text messages are lost forever, and of course, the phone is ALWAYS TURNED OFF.
When I’m running...

Just Like College
Living at home is like living at college. Except in the mornings I stumble down the stairs to tell my dad how “crazy” my night is. And just like college, my “roomie” smiles, laughs in all the right parts of the story, and then tells me I need to take a shower.

Text Machine
My mom loves to text message. She knows that I always keep my phone on me, so she texts me even if we’re in the same house.
Yesterday she texted me from across the house to come to the room she was in to turn off the light.
Really?

Hungry!
I live with my dad and recently my sister moved in.
They expected me to buy my own food, but my sister doesn’t have to since she’s still in school.
So we go grocery shopping and all start arguing about what’s going on with the payment stuff cause i was going to pay for some stuff but my sister wanted to eat some of it.
It was chaos - basically like a soap opera in the...
