skymama 37 #1 February 3, 2004 Soccer season for my son started up again last night. When I went to pick him up at practice, there were about 10 moms sitting there already. Once I walked up, this mom came over to me, dragging a woman by the arm. She said, "Oh, I'm so glad you're here. I want to introduce you to my divorced friend, Sue. Since she's divorced too, I thought you all might want to hang out together." WTF? She's setting up a playdate for her poor, divorced friends? I didn't know being divorced was going to make me a charity case! Heeey...there's an idea, maybe I can get her to do a fundraiser for us. Mama wants a new canopy! She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #3 February 3, 2004 I wanted to say, "You have got to be fucking kidding me", but I didn't because this is my son's gig. I just kind of smiled and said hello to the woman. I think she was embarrassed, because she walked away pretty quickly!She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyrad 0 #4 February 3, 2004 Yea, thats why when people ask me my status I just tell 'em I'm single.

riggerrob 643 #23 February 3, 2004 QuoteWading boots...hmmm... got any pics? Errrr... umm...you know from fishing or something. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hee! Hee! Reminds me of the other Sunday after church. This charming, raven-haired woman - tha tI had never met before - asked if I was so-and-so's husband. Once we got that out of the way, she told me THREE TIMES times that her not-so-attractive blonde friend was recently divorced, yada, yada. THREE TIMES!

happythoughts 0 #24 February 3, 2004 I used to get that. The conversation always had the inevitable "So...what do you do for a living?" question. My answer would always be "Well, I'm in-between things right now, but I've got stuff just around the corner." It's like there was an announcement, "Run, do not walk, to the nearest exit." The prospect has been evaluated and determined to not have funds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyangel2 2 #25 February 3, 2004 Hey, next time show up with some good looking guy on your arm. Make sure he's really hot, hotter then her husband. Then as you walk by her, just wink, and whisper under your breath, "Yeah, it is kind of sad being divorced, but (fill in name) keeps me company on those long, cold, lonely nights"May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
