My mom is weird. She has this allergy that’s not like when you’re allergic to dusts or pollen like most people. She’s allergic to MSG.
We went for Chinese last night near Emporium. You’d think the food is oily and salty enough as it is, but no, the Chinese wants to abuse your taste buds. My mom could feel it from the first sip of her corn chowder.
What I find fascinating is her allergic reaction. No I’m not being mean as it is really funny. She doesn’t get swollen up, she gets drunk. Yes drunk, the kind you would get when you chug down vodka. She would get dizzy, red-faced, and unable to maintain balance. Good thing she stopped last night otherwise I would have to maneuver a Fortuner myself.
But then again my mom gets drunk pretty easily. She was unable to walk when I made her drink Barcadi Breezer and when she sampled a piece of “brownie” I took home, she passed out within minutes.
We have a lot of things in common actually. We’re immature, shopaholic and we both have this seasonal obsessions that we get from time to time. Her well-known phases were knitting, home yoga kit and the most recently online shopping. She’s been bargaining online for rare not-available-in-Thailand cosmetics.
She’s rather a stay at home kinda person (even to shop) while I’d rather not be at home at all except to sleep. But ironically, she works out more than I do. She goes to fitness at 5 in the morning every day and gets her muscles pumping from everything from kick-boxing to yoga. Her favorite show on AXN is The Contender while mind is Nip/Tuck. How revealing.
I’m closer to my mom than to my patriarchal figure, but according to her and some of the people who have seen my wrath, my personality is more like my dad. Stressful, impatient and an avid tantrum thrower. She’s quite and simple enough to keep things balanced around here.
One true fact though, I’ve been told many times by my guy friends.
My mom’s a MILF. I doubt I’ll be as half of a MILF that she is when I’m her age.
