Psst! Look Over There!
We were at a wedding over the weekend. And by "we," I mean me, Husband, Snippy Bitch, Garrance, K, A, and my parents. I mean, there were others there, but who cares. This story isn't about them.
It was a small, intimate wedding, so the reception was in the fellowship hall of our church. My parents were sitting at the table next to the rest of us, with Spikette, her hubby and Nephew, who looked ADORABLE in his little shirt and tie!
In the middle of dinner, Mom stage-whispered, "Psst! Pass this to Wenchie!"
It was a note, and I thought maybe she wanted to know if I could come listen to records at her house after school. But when I opened it, it said this:
Look to your right to see the tattoos on the gal in red.
Oh my God! I LOVE it when my Mom is catty! It's hilarious because it doesn't happen very often. Especially at a formal event in a church!
Of course, K was like, "Secrets don't make friends!"
So I had to pass it around to the whole table. After which there was a flurry of obviousness -- the likes of which Mom was specifically trying to avoid with her discreet note -- as we all stared and speculated.
"What is that one above her boob?"
"Is it a sun?"
"A golf ball?"
"A pancreas?"
"Why would it be a pancreas?"
"I don't know! Don't you think it looks like a pancreas?"
And then we went and helped ourselves to cake because the people bringing it to the tables weren't fast enough for us.
Well, you know the saying: you can take the trash out of the trailer...

My next tattoo is totally going to be a pancreas. Right above my heart.

You forgot to mention the woman in "red" was wearing a top that was 2 sizes too small ... Yikes!

That's totally what I'm going to tell the next person who asks me what the tattoo over my heart is. Pancreas!
