My Mother, the Buzz Kill

(starring a young Katherine Heigl)

Sometimes when I find something funny or I'm very happy about something (read: there's a big smile on my face) and I tell it to my mom, she interrupts me mid-topic-sentence and says, "wear your retainers!" and shakes her finger at me. She really does shake her finger; I'm not making that part up.

Suddenly, I'm not so tickled to tell my story anymore.


BEFORE

AFTER
The biggest downer is that I know she's right. Those retainers kill me.

So, what have we learned from this?

Mother knows best.
It takes pains to be comely.

Two clichés in one post. And they say I'm not productive.
