Martini's Aren't For Breakfast Anymore!

Navigating the world of parenthood and dating all while trying not to drink before noon!

Have I mentioned I’m from HickVille? August 18, 2008

(Before I type this post, I have to mention that I LOVE the town/area I grew up in. There happen to be a lot of rednecks there, and I happen to love them. I’m not dissing my hometown, but anyone who’s ever been there, knows that it is essentially HickVille, USA.)

I was text messaging with my sister this afternoon. This was part of our conversation:

(After a long delay with no response from my sister)

Brandi writes: Sorry, I was on the phone with Dad. He says hi, thanks for calling this weekend. He was worried sick.

Me:Pssh! I talked to him Friday!

Brandi:He’s just playing. I didn’t talk to him either. He must not have been bored.

Me: Yah! Did you know he has a new lady friend?

Brandi: Ya! And did you know we are related to her?!? LOL!

Me:                  (I couldn’t type for a while, I was laughing too hard)

Me: OMG, are you kidding me?

Brandi:She’s umm…Papa Cliff’s (My dads father) brother’s step daughter I think. So only by marriage. But still funny!

And that, ladies and gentleman, is reason 836 why I am from HickVille!
