Embarrassing Mother!
SITUATIOn
1--------------------------1
Marie: Risa, I just saw your mom, It's so cool' that she dresses that way. She looks so young and hip'.
l
Risa: Young? Hip? Ugh! She's so embarrassing ! She's driy
ing me crazy' with the way that she's always trying to
wear young clothes and talk to you guys about music
and stuff.
Marie: But I don't mind at all. I really like your mom.
She's fun.
Risa: It's not fun for me. It's been crazy ever since her 40th
birthday. She's been trying to act like she's our age or
something. It's just wrong. She wants to go shopping
at the same stores as me, and half the time I can't
even find my fashion magazines because she
"borrows" them.
Marie: Really?
Risa: She bleached' her hair, she started wearing these
little tops and short skirts. And now she says she
might get a tattoo'!
Marie: No way!
Risa: If she does that I seriously won't go out in public with
her anymore.
Marie: I think it's kind of cool that she wants to be your
friend. She's a lot better than my mom. With her it's
always 'Where are you going? When are you coming
back? Who are you going with?" I mean, I would love
it if she took me shopping or asked me for fashion
advice.
Risa: Yeah, but my mom has gone completely overboard'.
And my dad, too. I mean, he isn't any help. He says
she looks prettier and sexier than ever. 'You are just
like a good wine," he says, "more delicious with age."
EeeWW'WW!
Marie: Eeewwww!
Risa: It's disgusting!
