Conversations with Mom and Dad

Warning: Egregious swearing below!

Last night, while talking to my parents, my mom and dad told me their new LDS chapel has been completed and next week will be the first time in that building. It's kind of exciting. Our old chapel is old and more like a maze than anything else.

"How does it feel to know you had your last Sunday at the Toppenish building?" I asked. "Pretty damn good?"

My mom responded distractedly, "Sure."

My dad, however, always the scion of upright exactness, said, "Um, I would say that it's good, but just that."

To which my mom interjected, "Melissa, you swear too much! You hang out with too many boys!" She was referring to all those naughty, dirty construction workers.

Kaylin had to put in, "Yeah, right, Melissa is on the brink of spinsterhood!"

Lovely.

I'm older than you. Does that mean I'm supposed to swear too?

I can't say this enough! I love reading your posts! I wish you lived with me because you are so good at documenting funny stories. I can never remember the funny things I hear when I have a pen and paper or computer close by!
