A series of inappropriate emails I sent to my mother which she has not responded to at all.
(This is all totally true, by the way. That’s what makes it so very awful. FYI: Lisa is my sister. Gabi is my niece. My mother is a saint.)

Hi mom!
You’re going to see a bunch of emails from me in your inbox but you shouldn’t read them because they’re all infected with a terrible virus. Which I got from Lisa. You should really just avoid her and also any emails from her. She’s not with you right now, is she? Because if she is you should push her down.
~me
PS. I found Gabi’s jacket in my car but now I’ve lost it again. I need Lisa’s address in case I find it again. Oh hang on, I’ll just CC Lisa on this so she can tell me. Duh.

Oh. I have made a horrible mistake.
You both should not open the emails from me in your inbox. They are infected with a virus. Which I got from daddy.
I love you both very, very much.

PS. Lisa ~ What’s your address? I may or may not have something to send to you but if you don’t get anything it’s your mailman’s fault and totally not mine. You have a terrible mailman.

So far? No response. Except for my sister who simply responded “You are an idiot“. Hard to argue with that.
Comment of the day: I just sent my mom a picture of a house in Ohio where we spent 2,475 days growing up. She wrote me back and said, “Oh look, it’s that house in the Hamptons we spent the afternoon at.” ~ Suzy

I have the oppostie problem. My dad has just become proficient at emailing in the last couple of years and for some reason old people (or maybe it’s just his friends..) really, really, really, REALLY like to send horrible forwards that no one wants to read. However, he seems to think that I will be interested in reading them. I’m not, but that doesn’t change the fact that I’ll open my inbox to find 32 messages from him, 2 from an old friend telling me about MaryKay deals even though her and I haven’t talked in years, and 1 telling me how to enhance the size of the penis I don’t have.
At least your mother doesn’t fill your inbox w/political or religious crapola that not only offends you but you’re pretty sure she didn’t even read past the subject line.
Not that the saint of a mother of mine would do such a thing. Noooooo.

this is why people “don’t have email.” which really? you don’t have email. weird. one time i texted my brother and sister from my mother’s phone saying that i was, in fact, her favorite. she’s sixty four, she doesn’t text but i got those fuckers good. then my mother panicked because “I DON’T EVEN HAVE TEXTS ON MY PHONE!!!” that really didn’t work because she does and she did and i’m her favorite, the end.
That is brilliant! Why haven’t I thought of the whole “virus” and/or sent by someone “else” thing when I send a screwed up email?

I would love to receive email from my Mother. Unfortunately she’s too “challenged” to get my email correct. In the past, she has gotten gmail and blogspot confused, therefore sending all email to my gspot account that I don’t have.
Yes, that is a true story.
I was going to make some joke about the emails starting with a condom and ending with getting a virus from your father, but then I realized that I just couldn’t make incest and questionable sexual abuse funny. Well, I could, but I would be ashamed of myself. Well, not necessarily ashamed of the joke, because the ones I thought of were pretty funny, and I would only be ashamed of them if they weren’t funny, but slightly embarrassed, way later on, when I realized that it was probably inappropriate and nobody else thought that they were funny. Mostly not the inappropriate part, though. And now I am not funny in paragraph form. FML.
What? I didn’t say anything. That was her. I was too busy trying to figure out how I could be Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer’s wife. Apparently, a position is open. Yum.

Oh, and I loved that video! Seriously awesome cat. All yours does is sit on your head. You should totally wrap your cat in Easter bunny paper (Christmas has already been done) and then let it sit on your head. That way you can top that video. Your intern should totally get on this. You’re welcome.

That cat looks exactly like my cat, who had to be given to my Ex’s mom when she went psychotic ninja on my kid when she was like, just learning to walk and tried to sever her achilles tendons. And her son, my ex’s brother is just weird enough that he might wrap up a cat in wrapping paper. And youtube it. Except instead of traditional Christmas music, he would have had some traditional Chinese music because in addition to just being a cat-wrapper-upper sort, he’s also become Chinese since 2001. And he was here at Christmas time, from China, so it totally could have been him.
Which is what I hope my ex and his mom’ll understand when they hear the voicemail I left them, accusing their family member of being a dirty cat-wrapper.

I am fairly sure that my cat wouldn’t stand to be wrapped. In paper, a condom or a sweater (is a sweater a jumper? I’m always confused by that) without freaking the fuck out and murdering me.
Actually, my cat looks at me like he wants to murder me all the time. It’s a little creepy. I think he’s in cahoots with the baby. I mean, the baby likes to snuffle in his fur, how I am to know that they aren’t plotting my demise?

I send similar type emails to my Mom but she actually responds with her own nonsense which will keep us going and giggling for hours. Also?

You know that strange filter that you have if you’re a teacher and you know you can’t curse in front of your students even though you swear like a sailor? Oh wait- you’re probably not a teacher. Anyway, THANK GOD I have one of those filters. So far in 15 years of teaching I haven’t sweared in front of my students. Except that one time when one of my first graders dropped a heavy chair square on my big toenail. I said “SHIT” out loud and then ran/ hobbled out into the hallway to cry and vomit. And then two days later I lost my toenail.
Well somehow that filter has carried over to sending fucked up stuff to my mom on the internet. Again, THANK GOD. Because I really really want to.
I’ve had email conversations like that with my husband. I mean not about cat sex or kitty condoms but just rambling one after another emails from me to him.

I am in love w @Mayopie’s comment. I would propose if it weren’t patently obvious she is experienced sexually, which makes the comment dirty and whorish. SO JUST FORGET IT.
Also, next time use a lubed condom. Makes the cats slimy, but it makes it easier to slide on.
And do you think wrapping paper, a sweater, and a condom (especialy all three) would help to make the cat-towel facelift thing more suitable and practical for public? Because I do. A sweater for warmth, a condom for its spanx-like properties (it would flatten the cat out, you see, so he blended better), and the wrapping paper with the bow could make it look like a normal hair accessory. In fact, if the cat didn’t meow, I don’t think anybody would be able to tell. I am not sure how you would get it to stay on. Bungee cords? Ribbon? You cold make him look either like a bonnet or like one of those amazing winter hat things with the strings that tie under your chin, that you aren’t really supposed to tie, but you do, and the huge poof ball on top. Depending on the season. Or not, I guess. You could wear the bonet version year round, I suppose. But you might have to dress like you are Amish.
If this was sent to my mom, she’d ask if I was alright and maybe if I should start taking some medication. Then when it got to the point where the sister gets blamed. She would agree, then tell everyone my sister sent her some rambling emails and needs an intervention. My mom’s cool like that. Thanks for the laugh on a day that I needed one. You rock!

Cats can still have sex with sweaters on, or so I’ve heard.
Funny. I have no mom, and no siblings, and I wish I had both so I could torture them with goofy, borderline inappropriate, hilarious emails. This is why being a motherless only child fucking sucks. SUCKS I TELL YOU! (I mean, okay, that’s ONE of the reasons it sucks, really there are plenty more but they have nothing to do at all with this post so I’ll spare you.)
So, I would totally have this one-sided conversation with my mom, but she’d be too drunk to notice we were talking anyway. Love that video though, I wish my cat wasn’t the devil so I could wrap him. Have you ever tried to wrap the devil in Christmas wrap? Not a good idea, trust me.

However, I didn’t mention that I didn’t use my real name on it, so I’m hoping she got confuzzled and fergot aboot it…

Gmail has a function you can add that cracks me up. You know how we sometimes get drunk and send e-amils we shouldn’t have- not that Jenny was drunk when she sent these, I’m guessing it was more fun sober- BUT you can add a “drunk guard” to your e-mail account that makes you solve simple math problems before the program will let you send. How awesome is that?

hahahahahahaha thats amazing
I end up doing stuff like this all the time too.
Only I have no siblings, so I have to blame it on one of my Mom’s dogs.
It works better than you would think.
Don’t kill the messenger but your mother doesn’t reply because your emails go directly in her junk mail.
Your sister may be partly responsible.
Oh, and another thing. I’ve been reading this blog since the last decade and this is the first that I’m hearing about a sister. I’m afraid that I’m going to need to see her birth certificate. And perhaps a few tax returns. Just the federal, I’m not some kind of a freak.

My mom would just respond to me by saying, “I don’t remember raising you—a psycho of a daughter :)” No joke. That’s her being kind. And yes, she’s even cool enough these days to do the smiley face.
Laughing as always. If I had a cat I’d totally do shit like that to them. And a sister too.

So. hard. to. laugh. silently. at. desk.
Aaaah! This is too funny!!
you’re lucky.
if I had sent all these weird mails,
my mother would have sent over my sister to make sure
I haven’t hit my head on the nightstand again or something.
Laughed so hard I cried!
I was really hoping you were going to tell us that your sister and niece were the ones wrapping the cat. I wanted to know how many times they had to rehearse that because it seems like it was down to a science. I don’t even wrap things that aren’t alive that precisely. (Uh, like, inanimate objects… I’m not saying I wrap dead things….)
That’s gold!
My Mum takes weeks to respond to anything I send her but when she finally does, she hits ‘send’ so many goddamn times it blocks my email.
You win this round, Mum.
