That boy

The Quote:
" Now, that boy you're carryin' on with, he's respectable and employed right?"

The Back story:
Mama's only want whats best for their daughters so long as they have a job...
And apparently dating means "carryin' on" with someone. When I was coming up I could've sworn "carryin' on" implied sexual relations...
 Is it possible my mother automatically assumes that when I date someone we're having sexual relations? That's a terrifying thought.

Drunk Geriatric Gardening

The Quote:
Mama: "Last Sunday Ken and I had 'Pink Poodles' for breakfast before going to work out in the yard."
Me: "You ate poodles?!"
Mama: "Of course not, it's pink grapefruit juice with vodka, the only way we can work in the yard together is to have a drink."
Me: "So it's drunk geriatric gardening now?"
Mama: "Sometimes you just need to imbibe darlin."

The Backstory:
Is it really necessary that I explain this? I'm pretty sure this one stands for itself.
