More tales from the ghetto
So this afternoon I call one of McKenzie's friends mom's to find out if the little girl is coming over tomorrow. This poor child's mother has a song called "Horny like a rock star" playing for her message. Seriously. At first I thought I was hearing wrong. Surely this is not really her answering machine. But by the second time through (those are the only words, apparently she selected the chorus for her message) I knew I was hearing right. Who does that? Crack dealers? Pimps? This woman has children for pete's sakes. I certainly hope she changes the message before the kids know what it means. I mean sure me and Nik had songs for our message before. Things like Anne Murray and Lionel Richie. But I think "Hello is it me your looking for" is a lot better than "Horny like a rock star." Is there a polite way to tell someone that they are not giving the impression that they will make stellar friends for my child? I guess all get togethers will be at my house. If that's her public persona heaven only knows what she plays around the house.

That is so annoying. I'm so scared of my kids making friends...seriously. I won't ever let my kids go to someone's house unless I know them. Hopefully she doesn't play that stuff around her children...which I'm sure she does...I just hope!
Um, yikes. That is just wrong. I guess it could have been worse, I just haven't figured out how yet.
Those were the good old days thinking of songs for our answering machine! I love Anne Murray and of course Lionel Ritchie too.
