Yesterday, my illustrious, hard-working partner found something quite intriguing on Passive Agressive notes.  The letter pictured above was written by a young girl who shares my name.  In it, she apologizes for calling her mom a "pice of poo".  Frankly, I still haven't stopped laughing at it - firstly, that there's another Karina out there who has a reported infatuation with poo, and secondly that had I ever called my mom a piece of poo, I would have received the thrashing of my life.  In fact, I can only recall ever back talking to my mom once, when she asked me to clean my room and I angrily said "NO!".  That didn't end well for me.  But then, I was a quiet, mild, obedient child, while I had two older brothers who'd been rather rambunctious, who did a lot worse.  I had the fear of my mom put into me by watching what they did.  What's the worst thing you ever said to your mom?

Oh, and when's mother's day?  I think a print out of this might be in store for my mom, as it will give her a good laugh too.
