Oh my Gosh, I can't handle it—I CAN'T HANDLE IT!

My mom finally got her new computer and, for some reason, the modem stopped working today. After spending a painful—and I mean painful—20 minutes on the phone with her trying to help figure out what happened, I told her to call the cable company because the thing seemed to have died completely. She ended up having to take it in and trade it in for a new one, and when she got home, she called me frantically and was like, "What's the difference between a urethra and UCB?"

I was like, "Pardon me?"

"The new modem came with a urethra and a UCB. Which one should I use to hook it up?"

"Um, do you mean an Ethernet and a USB cord?"

"Yeah, that's it..."

God bless her. I'm sure I'll be the same way some day.

My mom got a new computer and called to tell me that it has two "megakites."

Someone from the Geek Squad is going to her house tomorrow to set it all up. She's really pumped.

Previously: Metflex

I just got off the phone with my mom and she told me that my step-dad is really enjoying the "Metflex" he got for Christmas. I was like, "Huh?" thinking it was some kind of workout equipment, but then she said, "You know, Metflex, the movie thing." I was like, "Oh... Netflix! Right..."

Totally random post, I know, and maybe only funny to me and people who know my mom, but I thought I'd share it with you anyway. Happy day.
