[QUOTE="Star*, post: 431725, member: 4964"] Bridal showers? Okay this older lady I know - late to early 80's just a hoot - says to me yesterday - Ya know - I got picked by my Church committe to do this danged 'bridal' shower. (and she does the finger quotes) and makes a face. Then she looks at me and says "Well I can tell by YOUR enthusiastiac face you like m just as much as I do. WTH and she said the H word - is WRONG with these ding bats? I just stood silent because this is good comic material for Friday night...Know what I mean?? Then she exhales and is digging in the linen bin at the Goodwill and says with an aire of discontent - "They've lived together for three years, had sex for God knows how many years, and now all of a sudden Sister Scarlet wants a white wedding AND a bridal shower and I'm supposed to just leap through firey hoops to give her a virginal, sugary, shower of cake and presents and all the (she said the poo word that rhymes with rap) and you know this woman had tha AUDACITY to say to me - "Do you suppose we can have it in your backyard with some of your linens and make it pretty with your fine china?" I said "Well how did you answer her?" She said "Why do you think I'm here getting these cheap cups and bed sheets?" I'm not draggin out my Grandmothers bone china and Damask for that tramp.......and you know what really burns my butt? In less than a year? She'll be set up in an apartment of her own and all these gifts she gets? She'll keep - after the divorce. OMW!!!!!!! So if it's any comfort? Someone here in Columbia - Is having a bridal shower in the back yard of this gals house - with bedsheets, silk flowers and mis-matched stoneware. I think she's going to call it Shabby - tramp and be done with it. Oh and FYI - she said - IF someone says anything? She's just going to pretend she has the onset of alzheimers - and leave it at that so she's not asked again. She feels they shouldn't have asked her in the first place, put her on the spot, didn't really give her a choice - so she's making a statement.

She'd give her a $$$ party. SURPRISE is right. Next time ? Give the elderly an option. lol and 1/2 I love this gal. [/QUOTE]
