thats what you want in a...

My mom and I are driving home from doing some retail therapy (her choice not mine) tonight at Keystone. It's raining out and super dark. I'm in the straight/right turn lane and there is a left turn lane next to me. Light turns green. I proceed through the intersection. I'm like 2/3 of the way through the intersection and mom yells "OH SHIT" and I slam on the brakes. What else would I do??? I thought the jerk (I mean, you always just ASSUME he's a jerk) in the left turn lane decided to go straight and was gonna plow into me. I turn to look at my mom and finally hear/see a police car FLYING towards us so I get our ass out of the intersection. Mom starts to yell (not like made yell, just being obnoxious like we are to each other, all in good fun) at me "why the hell would you slow down?!?" "MOM! What am I supposed to think when you just scream OH SHIT at me??!!" It was really quite humorous. after we finished bitching at each other, I realized we could have died and wondered (aloud) if dad would be able to return the massive amounts of Yves Saint Laurent makeup we just bought and get some money back. My brilliant mother (literally, she's a certifiable genius, just not always real bright) says "well, probably not since it would have gone up in flames with us."

That's my mom and I for you :) She also tried to get into a dirty sexual joke banter with me at dinner (at McAlisters', btw) and honestly expected to win. Right. HA.

Also, bought super cute jean skirt at Old Navy today. The best part? More than a size smaller than the last pair of bottoms I bought there :)!!!

TOmorrow=B-town for Fur's birthday and to see his show. Hopefully it stops raining by then.
