This came into my Blame it on Lorraine email, which I use Webgod Jeff to format. If Steve had emailed my main contact, I would have replied directly, but the BIOL email is blind. But since it's just a basic question, I'll answer it here. It's about today's column:
Dear Lorraine;
Was it misprint, or did you actually get in your car and drive one half of a kilometre (500 metres) to your friends house when their alarm went off?
It's probably a little past a kilometre now that I think about it, but with two cops waiting for me at my best friend's house trying to ascertain if there has been a break-in, and two dogs going crazy from the noise, yeah, I'd totally grab my car and drive even half a kilometre.
What car did you finally settle on?
ReplyDeleteThe Flinstone-mobile so she was at least using her feet!
ReplyDeleteand what did you wear?
ReplyDeleteJamjams and a posh hat.
ReplyDeleteoh, you dressed up that day.
ReplyDeleteI'm killing myself laughing.
That column was hilarious to read. You know anytime your kids complain about you taking the piss out on them in print, show them this column. It takes a big person to do this to herself in print. That Erma Bombeck award was earned.
ReplyDeleteSo many questions; so few answers... What the heck is a "posh hat"??
ReplyDeleteSommerfeld inside joke.

Not fair; this is a public forum, not a Sommerfeld clique!
