Who DOESN'T Want to Talk About Sex With Their Parents?

Pin It
About once every few months, my mother-parent-person (aunt) takes pity on her poor drivers license-less child and breaks her out of this apartment style tomb to go eat free salad. Free cause she pays. She brings along my baby sister too, but mostly because she's pregnant and needs to be fed at least once a day or I'm assuming a scene from Alien vs Predator takes place.

It's a special time where we bond as mother and daughter type people.

It's also a time where my sister and I repeatedly remind her of the horrifying shit we did as teenagers that she never knew about until now.

"Remember how the front window broke and we said we'd never climbed through it before?"

"Check out this scar. You never saw this cause I fell on a rusty nail one time."

"Remember that time you asked why the vodka tasted like half of it had been replaced with water?"

I'm kidding on some of those. I'll let you pick which ones.

It's also a time where we are reminded that we are women. And women in our family talk. A lot. About very inappropriate things. Get enough beer in several of them, and the night never ends. Luckily, a lot of the adults are getting up there in age and beer is no longer necessary for an amusing afternoon.

We went to the Sizzler today. I was reminded twice that my meal was free so I should stop bitching about it. I'll point out that I wasn't bitching, I was saying "I told you so". There's a big difference.

The three of us sat there in the restaurant: one senial old woman, one hormonally charged pregnant woman, and one hot tempered redhead going through caffeine withdrawals. We made a bit of a scene.


Here is a list of things that may or may not have been said  
(and I'm not saying who said what)
  • Doesn't anyone speak English in this place?
  • You've got boobs!
  • I was checking the buffet for flies before I decided to eat here.
  • Yes we're going up for seconds, she's two people and I'm fat and hungry.
  •  . . . and then she found a condom under the doily!
  • Yeah, he couldn't walk for days.
  • I practically went into heat. Four times a day!
  • I thought men had erections all day long.
  • No, she threw out all of her sex toys.
  • Women on the television lie. No one likes giving oral sex.
  • Oh everyone knew Grandma was a wild woman in her days.
I won't lie. People stared.

I'd like to disagree with the second to last one!
My parents were once horrified to hear that my sister and i spent years warming our blankets, pillows, and highly flamable dressing gowns, on the heater in our room! Yes, quite literally lying them on it.

Haha! Well the conversation went into great detail after that part, but really, I think my blog is inappropriate enough these days! LOL!

And it never caught fire? Wow . . . you guys were good. That takes talent.

Shandy said...

Oh wow. This sounds like one of my family conversation, only you need more flatulence.
Thanks for stopping by my blog, I'm so following you know.

Stephanie S said...

I want to hang out with you girls! Sounds like fun :)

Stacey said...

Hilarious!
I don't think my parents enjoy family dinners much anymore because my brother and I end up sharing all the crap we did as kids/teenagers they never knew about...I think they are slightly horrified that they missed so much.

Amber said...

Haha that's hilarious "Women on TV lie, no one likes giving oral sex" I love it, too funny!

Aleks Nearing said...

Hahaha :) Wish I had been sitting at the table next to you all. Or not :)

Ugh. My family would never have this conversation. (that's a bad thing) I was raised in a very "proper" (read: boring) household, and we were never to talk of "inappropriate subjects". Thus, my sister who has two children and has been married for three years still blushes if anybody mentions anything sexual.

How liberating it was when I met my husband's family and they actually TALKED to each other about whatever they wanted to talk about at the time.

Be grateful for your open and communicative family! :)

Going Jane said...

That cracks me up. What a hoot! :) Following you back!

Holly504main said...

Hey there! Following you back from TTA. If I would have been at that sizzler, I would have been eavesdropping on your convo...sounds entertaining!

TK said...

May I ask why you don't have a license? Is it by choice? Or are you in trouble with the LAW? ;)

Untypically Jia said...

The fart jokes usually come in time. Especially with more males around.

Untypically Jia said...

The staff at Sizzlers did not feel similar. I think it's cause they didn't speak English . . . apparently.

Untypically Jia said...

I'm surprised that we survived at all. When Matt and I have kids, I'm locking them up. Maybe I'll go back to the 1800's ala The Village. That might work.

Untypically Jia said...

Makes me wonder what TV shows are being watched. I watch cartoons for crying out loud.

Untypically Jia said...

Dinner and a show.

Untypically Jia said...

I've learned early on that there's nothing too shameful or taboo in my family. NOTHING. Anything is up for grabs in a conversation. But you do have to be careful what you say, because it will be remembered and it WILL be brought up later.

Untypically Jia said...

The 1 other customer there was eavesdropping as well. (Take that Sizzler).

Untypically Jia said...

Haha. No, no trouble here. My license expired three years ago and I just never renewed it. I'm the queen of procrastination when it comes to stuff like that. I HATE driving anyways, so I postponed A LOT. Now it's been so long that if I renew it now, I have to retake the written exam and such.

Laura Philips said...

Participants are always welcome!

JoJo said...

Sounds like a blast and I completely agree that women lie, performing oral sex blows! Hehe no pun intended.

Kristin said...

Are you sure you aren't talking about one of my family gatherings? Y'all are fabulous!

Untypically Jia said...

3 points for unintentional pun usage.

Untypically Jia said...

It's possible. I'm related to a lot of people. I blame it on the massive amount of children born and the promiscuity of the 60's.

Jia,

You won my garden sign over on Keen Inspirations so I thought I'd check out your blog. You crack me up! You write funny, which is a compliment also given to Linda Ellerbee, a funny, witty woman who got paid for her wit. Your Sizzler conversation sounds like me and my girls, who recently at a scrapbook convention (we embrace creativity in all its forms, don't judge me!) absolutely horrified the ladies sharing our table with tales of erectile dysfunction, Ambien sex and embarassing trash mouth moments...like at scrapbook conventions, lol!
Keep your chin up and your blog alive!

Untypically Jia said...

Thanks so much for that wonderful compliment.

I totally want to try Ambien sex.
