I don’t recall how it came up, but I was in the car with Devin & Conner and I said something about “that Playboy chick” on a nearby car.
This is the conversation that ensued:
Devin: “Wow Mom, that’s so weird!”
Me: “What’s weird?”
Devin: “To hear you say ‘chick’ – it’s just weird to hear a kids’ word come out of a 42 year old’s mouth.”
Me: “First of all, I am 41, not 42. Second, do you really think that your generation is the first one to use the word ‘chick’ to refer to girls?! Really?”
Conner: “Well Mom, how are we supposed to keep track of how old you are?”
Devin: “Ya, you’re always going to seem to be about 50 to me.”
Conner: “Ya, you look around 50….”
I was en route to take them both for a doctor’s check up. Unfortunately the doctor was not able to fix what is wrong with these little twerps. (And so what if one of the twerps out weighs me by 15 pounds and is 2 inches taller than me…?)
