Mom: There she is. Our daughter. In the old days, when she went on a trip, we could only worry and wonder where she was. But now she's always with her cell phone! She's right there! What's to stop us from calling?? Nothing! She's right there on the counter!! Dad: Mother and her "open bag of Cheetos" approach to communication... Mom: WHat har could one more little call do??

“Open bag of Cheetos” approach? Is she saying that there’s “food” (meaning the phone to call Cathy) so she must “eat” (meaning call) it? Wow, that was reaaaaching!! I’ll go with rgcviper’s eye roll on this!Hello Cathy clan! Welcome back, GretchensMom!!!!!!!! Missed you!!!

Well, at least mom won’t gain weight from a phone call or have orange fingers afterwards.

Why, oh, why, can’t Cathy’s mother loosen up those apron strings long enough so that her daughter can enjoy a few days of peace and rest at a nice B&B with her boyfriend and their dogs without being constantly harassed over nothing more than her mother’s own pitiful insecurities simply because Cathy “conveniently” carries a cellphone around with her these days?!? It’s times like this that I don’t have to wonder why Cathy is the way she is . . . all I have to do is look at the woman who raised her! [eye-roll]
Hi, rgcviper!
lightenup: Hey, Sis! Hope you’re feeling better today and are taking things as easy as you will let yourself!!! ;-)
Hello and Happy Saturday, fellow “Cathy” fans. Hope everyone’s having a really nice weekend so far!

And we wonder how Cathy became such a nut-job. Need I say more?
@lightenupI’m with you on the [eye-roll], although I’m far from one to claim it. More of a community item here in “Cathy’s Corner”, don’t you think?
HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.

If Mom ever wants Cathy to get married — she better cut the umbilical phone cord.
