I'm begging, not SMS spam too

Having a teenage daughter means that you text - or you don't talk to her.

Maisy (and I suspect every teenage texter) suffers from acute acronymism, and brevity is an understatement. When she had a sleepover the other weekend these are the texts I got:

bed

awake

food

I got the drift of course, and I was grateful that we had this "open communication" which can be rare with teenagers.

But all this is beside the point, sorry.

My *point* was that yesterday I started getting texts, supposedly from Maisy that just said one word:

Yo!

But they weren't from Maisy. I was sitting next to maisy at the dinner table when I got 5 of these. Please, if there is a "higher power", don't let spammers start sending me texts every minute of every day.

So far I've had 15 of them.
