Desperate Working Mommas

Your one-stop site for fanatical television snarking, questionable political analysis, occasional attempts to address the parenting issues facing working mothers, and halfhearted promises to stop obsessing about the entertainment industry, already! Oh, not to mention the random bitching and moaning. There's always that.

Nip/Tuck, Nip/Shmuck

Why one should never discuss shows about plastic surgery in front of young children:

Momma: (attempting to explain "boob job" to 6-year-old Alli) Well, the plastic surgeon slices right under a woman's boob...

Hannah: Aurrrghhh!

Tanner: Oh! Eeeew! Mom!

Momma: (persevering) --and slips this balloon full of saline right in there--

Hannah: What's saline?

T.D.: I'm not listening... la, la, la... I'm not listening...

Momma: (raising voice to be heard over "La, la la!"-ing son) --um, right under her skin, and uh, it makes her, uh, well, heh-heh, you see... it--

TGIM: It makes her boobs look bigger!

Alli: Oh...

Hannah: Well, that's stupid.

TGIM: (stifling a snort of laughter) Sorry... it's a tickle... in my throat...

Momma: (shooting Look of Death TGIM's way) Yes it is, sweetie! Absolutely!

Alli: (*ding!*) Hey! Wait!... Grandma Sue must have had one of those, right, Momma?! Her boobs are HUGE!

I have to give TGIM props for keeping a steady hand on the wheel as he wiped tears of laughter from his eyes. As for me, it took nearly 5 minutes for my violent fit of hysterical laugher to abate. The hiccoughs lasted 10.

Um, yeah. No more Nip/Tuck chats while on family car rides, I tell you what!

Oh, and sorry, Mom.
