Today, I talked to my mom about hanging out with her. She got out her phone to schedule an appointment. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Same thing different taste
Today, my mother dragged me to the mall to get me out of the house and to get me to stop using my phone. She then spent the whole trip talking on her phone instead of actually interacting with me. FML
Lost
Today, my mom was on the phone while we went grocery shopping. Apparently, her phone call was more important because she just left me stranded in the store. FML
Thanks but no thanks
Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. FML
Today, my mom read my diary. Then she frantically booked me an appointment with a psychiatrist. FML
Thanks, I guess…
Today, I finally had a phone call after a week of nothing. It was my mother. It was by accident. FML
Today, I called my mom to tell her that I finally got my period. There was an awkward pause. She was at work. I was on speakerphone. FML
Today, for the first time in over a year, my mother actually called me. I excitedly picked up the phone. All I heard was rustling; her purse dialed me. FML
Welcome home!
Today, I had an appointment. After 2 hours of waiting in the sun, my mom finally picked me up and lectured me on how irresponsible my dad was for not communicating with her. Not 5 minutes after I got home, my dad showed up and gave me the same exact lecture about my mom. FML
Another non-emergency
Today, I went on a date, and halfway through I started getting nonstop calls from “Mom” on my phone. Annoyed, I silenced them. Later, I checked my voicemail. It was actually my mom calling from the ER because she had slipped and broken her ankle. FML
Today, I called my mom for the first time in a few weeks, just to chat because I miss her. When she picked up, the first thing she said was, "Why are you calling? What's wrong? Do you have swine flu??" When I told her that I didn't, and I just wanted to chat, she hung up. FML

"Hmm, Christmas I'll be in Mexico. Hmm when's your birthday again? I'll be busy then too. The only time I can pencil you in would be April fools day. Would that work?"

At least she won't be able to turn around and say that she has other plans on the day?

That's kinda bad, but I once had a girlfriend who scheduled sex with me. It's pretty emasculating to hear,"Hmmm, let's see when I can pencil you in." Hey, it's more like a Sharpie!

Ooookay. That one is hilarious! I mean, that takes, "Not now, honey, I have a headache" to a whole new level!!!

And yet somehow better than "I'm sorry, it doesn't seem like I can fit you in anywhere."

OP: You don't say how old you are, but if you're an older teen or out living on your own, you've gotta know by now that your parents have lives also. They're not hanging around just waiting to do stuff for you.

Looks kind of cold, but... It does depend on how old both you and she are. And, give her some credit for thinking that you are important enough to put on her calendar??? Gawd, that sounds kind of awful. Hang in there and appreciate what she does give you. In almost every case, someone like her was crippled by her parents and upbringing.

People over the age of 45 + smartphones = really bad idea.

At first I thought your mom was a bitch, but I think it's more that she's probably extremely busy and wants to set aside time for you. Don't be too upset OP, at least your mom cares enough to plan ahead of time to spend quality time with you.
