forever alone.

I phoned my mum today at work.
Note: I rarely call my mum out of the blue, usually we text beforehand "is now a good time?"

So, I called her to confirm the airport pick up tomorrow morning (I'm going home for a week, SO excited!)

Mum: "Hello?"
Me: "Helloooo, it's Jamie!"
Mum: *Silence* "Hi..."
Me: "Hey! I, uh, I'm just calling to let ya know what time my pick up is!"
Mum: *Silence* "Uhh...okay?"
Me (starting to get a bit weirded out that Mum doesn't care about me calling her...forever alone): "Yeah, so it's at 9:30!"
*silence*
Me: "Are you there?"
Mum: "Yes, I uh..."
Me: "Mum, it's me...it's Jamie."
Mum: "NO WAY. Jamie! OH MY GOD. I am so sorry, I thought you were someone who had the wrong number! You sound different on the phone..."

Gawd, Mum. Way to make a girl feel special.
I love her.
Even when she doesn't recognise my voice.
