This is why Easter makes my mom crazy

So my mother likes Peeps. And when I say "likes" I mean "yearns for". Anyway, being the charming daughter I am, I got her two boxes of Peeps, one of which was INVADED by ants who now live in my kitchen, searching for more Peeps. Thank, Mom. Anyway, a week after I give her the untouched box, I receive this series of text messages: 

6:27 pm April 14, 2009: 
Mom: Get more peeps. 
Me: I think you've had enough peeps.
Mom: And?
*15 minutes later*
Mom: Peeeeps. 
*5 minutes later*
Mom: Peeeps. 
Me: No more peeps now. Going to yoga. 
Mom: Nooo. Once a year. 
Me: Yoga now. 

Was that the end of it? Oh hells no. This woman is on a freaking mission. 

3:45 pm the following day:
Mom: Nutz wants peeps. 
Me: You're obsessed.
Mom: Peeps season is short.
Me: They have them all the freaking time.
Mom: R u sure?
Me: Omg yes.
Mom: Life is good. 

5:54 pm April 22, 2009:
Mom: Peeps.

Mom, I didn't teach you how to text so you could badger me about fake marshmallow that explodes in the microwave. Also, does anyone else find that link distressing from a psychosis standpoint?
