Today marks the first day that Zach has started sending me unnecessary texts. This is a landmark for several reasons, the least of which is that Zach isn't even willing to type out "OK" and will just send "K" or "Y" for yes and "N" for no. Really, if you ever plan to text the man, you should just be aware going in that he only answers yes or no questions. Otherwise, you will probably get a call. Also, if you get a long, drawn out, well written text, it means he handed the phone off to me, and is now dictating a ridiculous number of words for me to type into his flip phone. Here is the first incident this morning.
So Zach is on facebook, and some random girl who is friends with his younger brothers, but clearly doesn't actually know Zach starts instant messaging him on facebook, asking him questions that we know she isn't really meaning to ask him (like, when did he move out of his parents house...answer? While you were in diapers), but possibly is mistaking him for Casey. Which is hard to do, since Zach is spelled Z-a-c-h and Casey is not. Anyways, Zach, being consistently awkward in these types of situations, hands it off to me to respond to because he needs to go water the grass. About 5 minutes later, I get a text from him "Hows the convo going?" and this is when I realize that he is in the bathroom. About 20 ft from me. So I just yell out, "It's fine" and promptly end said conversation with random/confused girl who is now asking if my children are twins and if I went to some concert. *sigh*
About 20 minutes ago, while discussing how to interpret a verse that we are supposed to be teaching about on Sunday, I finally get him to leave me alone so I can focus, and he tells me he is going into the other room to study and that he will send me enlightened suggestions from there. Seconds later I get a text saying "Test"
Save me. Save me now. Maybe I should just go hide my phone in the same room as him and change the message notification to Alarm or something equally charming?
Maybe I will just go to bed.
