Is it normal to feel upset about my mom checking up on me?

So last night I was at a friends house (M for the friend, for future references), and we were playing board games before planning to shoot some fireworks. I worked during the day, and came straight to the party (which had no alcohol, and was at M's home that my mom knew and trusted). I have tiny pockets, and I personally find that I get too distracted having my phone on the table so I left it with my bag at the door. At 8 she has my brother call the M to find out if I'm there. Okay fine, she usually asks me to text her when I get somewhere, but she didn't ask this time, so I didn't bother. Maybe I should have. Then at 10:30 we're hanging out outside after fireworks playing word games and M gets a second call from her asking when I'm coming home. At this point I've been at work all day, this is the first time I've been with friends in weeks, and I'm 24. I don't feel like she should be calling M to check up on me, instead of leaving a text and just asking me to tell her when I leave the party. I've been pissed about it all day, but I feel like I'M in the wrong for getting so upset over it. I also know that if I try to talk to her about it, she'll say its my fault for not having my phone on me or that she can't help but worry.

And before anyone asks, yes I still live with her, only because I messed up my almost perfect credit when I moved out with my brother an he lost his job. So I'm living at home until I find somewhere that will take me with my credit or until I finally finish paying everything off.

    You still live with her. That makes you her bitch. Live with it, an overprotective mom is hardly the worst fate.

    Moms will always be moms. So put up with it while you are under her roof and shut the fuck up. Ok?

    At least your mom gives a crap. And you're living in her house. It's her house, her rules.

    its not my favorite (my mom gets like that to) but sometime its a good thing. if you are still living with her you don't have any option but to deal with it.
