Maybe we aren't so predictable after all

We are on a family cell plan with my extended family, which is a great bargain for us. When we set up our account, we had to consider the habits of a wide variety of cell phone users - from my grandparents to my little brother. My brother is a big texter, so we got unlimited text messages, which applies to everyone. Since then, the rest of us have started texting much more often than I ever imagined.

Even my mom sends lots of text messages - she loves the predictive text feature, but she rarely has her glasses on when she's texting. I'll get messages like this one:

OK with of. Remember i want to in to bare minerals. He you foot hear from of again it because i an home and may lose reception again.

It's like a secret message that I have to decode by looking at what other letters are available on the keys she used...This one should have said:

OK with me. Remember i want to go to bare minerals. If you dont hear from me again it is because I am home and may lose reception again.

What I find most funny about these messages is that if I ever have the slightest typo here on the blog or in a text message my mom teases me. She is a stickler for correct grammar and spelling, which I have to admit was very helpful to me in school...in this one case, though, she totally falls apart. I guess her phone just isn't that good at predicting what she really wants to say!
