"Girls Day Out"

Took a trip to the big city, Bangor, with Bre, a friend of her, Sister Terri and niece Becca. It was a fun day. We hit the mall of Prom accessories, even Becca at 13 is getting ready for a semi-formal, the Wal-Mart for throw-a-way cameras, I don't trust Bre with a REAL camers, met Dad and girlfriend, will I ever get used to that statment, for lunch and then we went to see "Kiss me Kate". I love musicals, most musicals, but this one was not one of my favorites. Bre slept through the entire first act and then had no idea what was going on in the second act, but she was a good sport about it. This is the second time that Bre has attended a musical with me (other then school ones), the first time it was Chicago, I loved it, she still hated it. I just have a hard time believing that a child of mine doesn't enjoy musicals....oh well. The best part of the day was the car ride, it's so funny that otherwise intelligent children, think that the adults in a car a deaf. I love listening to them talk when they don't know that I can hear them, the same thing happens when the kids are in there room with the door shut. At one point in their conversation I heard one of the girls say "Oh I know what a Thesbian is...is't a fake lesbian" then one of the others said "what's it called when someone likes to have sex with a tree, I didn't even know that there was a word for that. Another answered "oh thats a tree hugger". Sister and I could not help but chuckle...actually we laughed our asses off. The conversation then moved onto cloths, make-up and boyfriends. I always learn something new when I spend a couple of hours in the car with kids....anyone's kids!
