Yesterday was funny. Me, my mom, her boyfriend Chip, her friend Gwen, my sister Jen, and her husband James were all eating dinner outside cause it was a nice day. When Jenny starts humming a Ween song (I don't know if anyone knows the band?) and my mom was kinda going what is that. So I start singing along and go from song to song. Mom's giving us her weird is this what kids do today look and asks Jenny (kinda joking way, its an inside joke that I'll probably explain when I get realy mad at some point) "Is this how your crupting my kids now" Half way through Happy Colored Marbles we both point to James and say he did it. Sence, he introduced Jen to the band and she introduced me. So, we are talking about various bands and Gwyen, Chip, and Mom are looking at us crazy with the ocasionel comment of waite they have a band called Modest Mouse, and Its all greek to me. We both point out that Gwyen realy can't complain about our musical taste because a relation of hers, maybe her nephew, I'm not sure places in a band called Lamb of God. They were at ozz fest witch is realy cool I wonder if anyone heard of them. So, anyway we both go inside and Jen brings in a Ween cd for Mom and chip to listen to, Gwen just left. She fast forwards through almost all the songs she thinks mom wouldn't like, code for explicite lyrics. Shes giving us the weird look again and were back to discussing music again. I'm telling Jen a story about how my gym teacher was compleatly freaked out cause Nicole brought in a Nirvana tape to listen to in gym, we always listened to music in gym but I couldn't remeber the song title. Finaly I do remember it the song Rape Me and mom sitting there saying waite there's a song called rape me. Jen goes into a long speach about how its symbolic then mom asks who sings it again. I say nirvana you no. She nods her head she doesn't know. Started grunge, killed hair bands forever, brought in flannel aka the most confortable fashion trend ever, ect. ect. Then mom says waite wasn't Courtney Love in that. We both try to explain she was not part of nirvana just married to Kurt covain. So, were going on and on. Mom's listening to the lyrics of the songs with aren't all apropriate for young ears. So, yah she says something about this being what Jen's exposing us to (again kinda joking she trusts my sister) and says she and chip are going for a walk and asks us what were going to do. From with we replie watch Kill Bill Volume 2 and she fakes horror (she already knew we got the dvd earlyer and like I said she might not know alot about music but she trusts my sister) It, was funny at the time. Sorry if I was kinda rambling but another shining example of an age gap.
