She should go ahead and reserve my spot at the nursing home

A few mornings ago, I was in the bathroom brushing my hair.

  • CHICK: You look like your mom.
  • ME: Really? I look like Nana?
  • CHICK: Yes, you have blonde hair, too.
  • ME: Well, neither Nana nor I have blonde hair.
  • CHICK: (she looks at my hair up close) Never mind, it’s not blonde. It’s white.*

*meaning my lovely, post-30 sprinklings of gray hair

    My son often calls me “Me-Ma” with a wicked little grin. So maybe we can be neighbors in the nursing home.
