HMU

Ever since my daughter told me that HMU means “Hit Me Up” I have gone out of my way to include it regularly in my texts with her.

Every time she gets one of those magical texts with HMU, her reply to me includes some of those laughing-until-crying emojis. Obviously, that is some form of acknowledgment of how hip and awesome I am.

*tap tap tap* Is this thing on? Hello? I just flew in from Jersey, and boy are my arms tired.

Anyway…

I’m not really into text talk. For example, I never, ever use LOL. For some reason, it’s my least favorite of them all, and I insist on simply writing out “ha ha” or “ha ha ha” or even “hahahahaha.”

For one thing, I seriously doubt the LOLers out there are actually laughing out loud. Maybe sometimes, but not nearly as much as they write it. I bet for most users, LOL really means more like, “That was funny.” So maybe they should use TWF instead of LOL if they aren’t really laughing out loud. Hey, I’m just saying. Inaccurate LOL usage activates my OCD.

SMH … but that’s just my opinion. And you know what they say about opinions. That’s right: awesome dads always have one.

Okay, time to get back to work on my second Kane Montgomery novel. If you haven’t read or heard the first one, you can check it out for FREE by starting up and Audible trial membership … which you can do by CLICKING HERE or on the image. You won’t regret it and you’ll be helping out a really nice guy that I know (it’s me!).

Hope you all have a fantastic day!      – Bart
