[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Use email.

If your mom is like mine, the emails will inevitably result in follow-up phone calls too though (but email really is our best means of communication). [/quote]

PP here.  My mom dismisses email.  Doesn't "count" like a phone call.  If she says (and often does) that she "hasn't heard from me..." She is specifically referencing a phone call or an in person visit.[/quote]

If there's specific info to convey, though, it could be a useful addition to a "conversation" in which only one person gets talk.

My mom can be like this some days, even though she is genuinely interested in what is going on in my life.  She just really has some long stories to tell sometimes...I can't tell you how many times our phone connection has dropped and I have waited several minutes to call back for whatever reason, and she still did not even know that the call had dropped because she had not stopped talking until the phone rang when I called back.    :) [/quote]
