Here's how my teachable moment about mentioning strangers' physical attributes came up: my son, then 2, said, very loudly, in Target, in regard to a man standing two feet away: "Mom, look how fat that guy is!"

Barb and Katherine - Re MILF - Hunh. I guess maybe that signals something positive for single mothers hoping for a relationship? Nahhh. I'm trying to find a good spin on it - or at least one that makes sense.
My own mother tells the story about me at about 3 when we were in an elevator and I said, "Mommy, look at that lady's dirty coat." Then a few years later I militantly weaned myself off the word 'lady.'
Re the most I spoke in two weeks. That put the biggest smile on my face in two weeks.
(Barb, two weeks from today....we'll be in sunny(?) California.)

Well, the positive spin I've found for it is that at least moms can be considered hot now -- and porn spam I've gotten in recent years confirms this -- instead of just frumpy and self-sacrificing.

My mum still tells the story of when I was three and with my family walking down this kinda clifftop pathway.. a very Glaswegian woman on her way up said
"Watch yer-sel Hen, it's awfy slippy" (For those that need translation. "Watch little girl, its slippy down there.. don't fall!)
To which I replied in a loud innocent voice which made my family have to muffle their laughs..
"I'm not a hen. I don't lay eggs."
Ellemeno:
I love the word 'Glaswegian.' I wish the chat room had sound. :)

Oh Clarissa and Barb,
I hope you guys have a wonderful time but I feel a little like Alma at the door, with my purse on my shoulder, watching y'all hop in your truck together.
