Hahahaha!

I can still remember my mother (God rest her!) when she was really SPITTING angry with one of us, she would go:

“Richard! Michael! Albert! Robert! Sarah! MARGARET!”

As she said each name in staccato bursts, one right after the other, her voice would get louder and more exasperated and the look in her eyes would get wilder and wilder as tried in vain to get the name right.

I remember the poor woman going through every one of us. God, I do miss her!

That’s my Mom.

She will run through all of our names, stop, get stuck and sometimes try some other name we never heard of.

Tried the dogs once or twice.

Funniest memory is when she went through the list, got frustrated and blurted “Tell me your name and don’t lie to me. I know where you live!”
