because i couldn’t resist.

we were talking about the tv shows that we watch, and she said that she loved Commander in Chief. i admitted that i’d never seen it, and really didn’t have much interest.

“Really? it’s the BEST show!”
“Surely it can’t be the best show, mom. no one i know is watching it.” (although i did just read that it was nominated for a golden globe for best drama..)
“Really, you should be watching.”
“I should be watching?”
“See, that’s what wrong with our society. the women never support the women.”
“Huh?”
“You all more interested in a good looking man than a really great woman.”
“Mom, you do realize that this is a television show. it’s not a real president. you know that right?”
