Real Conversation with Mom: New Year's Eve

Mom:  "I want to go honky-tonkin' on New Year's Eve.  Where can we go?"

Me:  "Um, what?"

Mom:  "Honky-tonkin!  Dancing with men!  New Year's Eve!"

Me:  "Well, I know of a club that's supposed to have a pretty good band.  Should we go?"

Mom:  "Is that honky-tonkin'?"

Me:  "No, it's just going to a bar with a band."

Mom: "What do we wear?"

Me:  "Something slinky.  And a push-up bra."

Mom:  "No, no.  You'll just get upset."

Me:  "Why would I get upset?"

Mom: "Because if we go out together, all the men will dance with me and ignore you.  Then you'll be impossible to live with."

Me:  "Mom, you are seventy-six years old."

Mom:  "When you've got it, you've got it!"

Me:  "And I don't got it?"

Mom:  "Not like me.  You'd cramp my style."

  3. I can't wait to read the post-NYE blog!! Only in SC can you go honky-tonkin' with a sixty-seven year, lol.

    P.S. Broiled cakes, condensed milk and Ewoks are super entertaining!!
