It's capped at 160 characters! Unbelievable. Time for a new phone number.

How is anything so complex that it needs three ellipses, yet can be conveyed in <160 chars?

I assumed RF's mother was using them to condense big issues into three characters, in a way that leaves RF guessing as to her exact point/meaning, and which allows her to put as many topics as possible into the 160 characters.

Well, (sometimes I think to myself that) I should preface my response (because what else would I do) in that my (own) mother does not (nor has ever) text at all (nor does she even know how to view a received (rcv'd) text).

An ellipse is ...

What you wrote are called parantheses.

What are you worth to a pawn broker?

What if you were the one who was asked, "What are you worth to a pawn broker?"
