My mom, ladies and gentlemen
Oct. 12th, 2008 12:53 pmThis is probably not funny to anyone who doesn't know my mom, but it's pretty damned funny to me. Maybe even up there with watching her watch Brother play GTA .
I just came downstairs to find Mom in the living room watching pro football. The Saints are playing.
Me: Is Jeremy playing? (Jeremy Shockey, to whom I am very distantly related)
Mom: No, he's having hernia surgery. What a wimp! (perfectly serious)
Me: Mom!
Mom: Surgery like that is never urgent. You can put it off.
Me: If you want to rupture something!
Mom: ...Okay, maybe.
