Sometimes he cracks me up

OK, this is funny at my mom’s expense.  But really, Mom, we love you and you’re a good sport.

My mom ordered the new iPhone 3G last week.  We decide she only needs the 8GB since she doesn’t need much space for TV shows, movies or music.  She basically uses the phone, timer, text, email….well, everything but the iPod (and probably stocks but that’s beside the issue really).  Anyway, so Mom has her box to open it, looks at the side and says, “Heeyy!  I thought I ordered an 8GB.  This only says 3G!”  Ahhh, Mom.  We love you.

But what’s funny is I tell Scott this tonight and he says you know, you should have played along and told her to take it back to the store and convince them they must have given her the wrong phone. Now THAT is funny.   I should have been all, “Mom!  You’re right!  You paid a lot of money for that.  We really should ride up there and exchange it.”  Can you imagine being in the store hearing that conversation?  “I just wanted to bring this back because this is only the 3G and I ordered the 8GB…see, let me show you my receipt.”  Yeah, that’d be funny.  Then again, this is coming from the same guy who told my mom’s mom in a store to go ask the clerk if they had any B batteries in stock.  And yes, for the record, she asked.  And we laughed.  Fun times.
