Mom's Nothing call

I had 5 missed calls from my Mom yesterday. When I got around to calling her back I said, "Hey Ma, whassup?"
She said, "Oh I didn't want anything."
5 missed calls for nothing.
So I said,"Of course you wanted something. You called 5 times."
"No I didn't."
"Yeah...ya did"
"No...I didn't"
"Well Ma, how come you didn't leave a message?"
"Cuz I TOLD you I didn't want nothing!"
"Okay well I'll talk to you later then."
"Oh wait, NOW I remember what I wanted!"
"You said, nothin', remember?"
"Don't make me smack you thru the phone cuz I will"
I no longer believe she still possesses this power, with the lupus and all , but I shut it up so she could tell me about the "nothing" she remembered she called to tell me about.
"I just heard they doin a movie about Angela Davis and they want Beyonce to play her? What da hell? She seems like a nice girl but I'm tired of her right about now. I'm tired of Will Smith, too. They ain't got 2 mo black actors in hollywood these days?"
"I guess they don't."
Silence.
"Alright, I'm done with you. Call me back when my babys' done with her homework."
"Oh, SHE'S yo baby now?"
"Bye strange lady that birthed my baby. Luv ya!"
...and click.

I get it from my Ma-Muh!
