Oh, but dirtiness is so much more fun! And funny.
Ugh, awkward conversations suck. Once, my parents asked me if I knew what being gay was. I was 15. I burst out laughing, then said yes. hoo, boy.

Posted: 9/29/05 at 8:01pmMy mom recently decided to tell me that people were asking her if I'd met any nice boys at school, and that she was getting a bit tired of telling them I'd not found myself happily paired just yet. She proceeded to ask me if maybe I was a lesbian, and told me that if not, I should stop spending so much time with gay men, because they won't help me in terms of finding a boyfriend.

Ahhh! You're what? 19?! You're not supposed to be happily paired! This isn't 1825. You should tell her that yes, you have met many nice "boys." At the Chitty stagedoor.

Last time I counted, I had one straight male friend.
My mother would marry me off tomorrow if she could! I have no idea why she's so worried about it! She tried to set me up with my brother's friend's brother, who I went to high school with, but never really... knew.

Posted: 9/29/05 at 8:07pmOMG. I had that exact same lesbian talk from my mother. Once when I was 17, then again this past Christmas. Geez, I've had boyfriends (none as hot as Raul) but I'm happy alone now. Parents...

You should tell her that you are a "smart, beautiful, intelligent woman, and you don't need a man to complete you." Hee, I love Freaky Friday. 
I guess it's a mother's job to worry about stuff like that, especially if she has a daughter off in big, bad New york City, where anything can happen.

Well, they hypnotize us to think we're all strong.

Don't they make you take dance? Or some sort of physical thing-y?

Posted: 9/29/05 at 8:14pmThere's a two-semester physical education requirement, but there's a pretty big list of classes to choose from. It's annoying, but relatively painless.

Elphie, that is so funny!
I went from being a Georgia Peach to being a Jersey City girl. I'm surrounded by mainly Spanish, Cuban, Puerto Rican, Argentinian, and Italian men. My mother was okay with this. My dad, TERRIFIED. Me, I'm having the time of my life.
But, I AM a strong woman who doesn't need a man to complete me.

Woo, at least my family is not the only family who has had the "lesbian talk".
Mine however, was from my grandmother, not my mom. She was 'worried' about me because I always wear pants and never dresses or skirts.
Gotta love family! **sarcasm**

I really should get more exercise. So a requirement is probably a good thing. But I like Columbia's better! You just have to be able to swim.
I don't think my parents really care where I am. I mean, they care, and they would worry about me in NYC, I'm sure, but they won't stop me, because they love the city too.

Posted: 9/29/05 at 8:18pmLOL, Britt! My grandmother was visiting while my mother had that talk with me, and my grandmother butted in and was like "well, you should be out looking!" I was like "grandma, what is this, a shopping trip? Do you want me to BUY one?"

(I still want Adam, Raul, and Norbert to sing this song together for some event.)

My grandmother is too old to be worrying about stuff like who I am dating. And she lives too far away. I wonder if our mothers were talking about their mothers like this when they were younger. I sure hope I don't end up like mine, as much as I love her.
That would be incredibly pretty!

That would be interesting...and quite amusing.
What if...Raul played Guido in Nine? I can see it...

Posted: 9/29/05 at 8:29pmPretty, maybe! I just think it would be knock-down-drag-out hysterical. I'd probably pee my pants from laughing so hard. I can just see the three of them hamming it up like crazy. Ah, one day.

Posted: 9/29/05 at 8:30pmHe'd be lovely in NINE.

Posted: 9/29/05 at 8:30pmIf Raul EVER plays Guido, I'm gonna loose like sixty pounds and play Carla.

Then we can all come see you and Raul perform! You would have your own little cheering section.

I think that if I cut my hair really short, dye it black, and lose about seventy pounds, I could play Little Guido.
*giggle* I'm insane, and I like it.
