another day, another text....

I talked to my mom last night, in person, and she told me:
"I wanna be called yellow butterfly or hummingbird! because they can fly and sing!"
"mom, butterflies don't sing. and i'm not even sure if hummingbirds do."
"wellll, i still wanna be called by that, ok?!"
"ok, well what's my nickname then, mom?"
"ummm, oh i know. JUAN!"
".........no....."
"Ok, what about a cat like a cheetah?"
"yeah i guess that works."
"ok, i call you cheetah! cool!"
