March 28, 2005Pseudo-Sapphic silliness...
A story shared during the post-Easter-dinner coma:
My mom and my aunt are in the habit of having lunch with each other on Sunday afternoon, after which they usually grab something at Starbucks, or go shopping, or what have you. Well, on the particular Sunday afternoon in question (a week ago, I believe), they looked through a rather ritzy home in Riverside during an open-house.
It should mentioned that my mom and my aunt don't really resemble each other.
At one point, when the realtor is out of earshot, my staunchly conservative aunt whispers to my rather liberal mom that the realtor probably thinks that the two of them are a pair of home-hunting lesbians.
The two of them finish looking through the house. As the realtor walks them out onto the front porch, what does my mom do but grab my unsuspecting aunt's hand in hers and say, "Oh, Honey, I don't know if we can afford this!"
Sometimes, I forget how cool my mom can be.
