Former Party Girls turned Moms are the only ones allowed to read this.

When I first had kids I joined a mom's club. The next best thing after playgroup was MNO (Mom's Night Out). But some of us interpret that differently. I would leave, "Goodnight ladies", and then I would get a six-pack and drive to Las Trampas.  I would put my feet up, sip some brew and watch the owls hunt. Then I would go home, pump and dump, and pass out. If I didn't do that, then I would take my husband's Mercedes and drive 130 mph from San Ramon to Fremont and back again, with the sun-roof open and blasting The Stones.

We traded the Mercedes in for a Honda and we both turned 40. Yuck. I had a MNO this evening and the most rebellion I could scrounge up was a trip to the local watering hole (after the mom's visit was over). The scene was ridiculous, I drank half a beer and bailed.

Is this it?

I didn't even think about it! The last time I called a mom after a night out and asked her if she wanted to go for a drive she made it sound like a bad idea. I will remember who to call in the future.

Okay, I can't remember what I was going to write because the word verification is asking me to type in "porkside". I think it's calling me fat.

Stupid, not stupif. Now it's asking me to type in "ventyt". Why because I'm venting?

Charlotte said...

The only thing you ever say to a pregnant woman is ,"You look beautiful."
