Cait is a scream!

I just adore her blog. Here’s one that cracked me up:

The Sainted Mother met The Princess’s fiance’s family for the first time Saturday. We were all holding our collective breath because there is absolutely no telling what TSM will say. Since she’s hard of hearing, she says every thing very loudly. Her ‘whisper’ has a bullhorn effect. This has led to some very embarrassing moments.

Two occurred in the doctor’s office. She was eyeing a woman who was significantly overweight. Finally, she leaned towards me and ‘whispered’, “That woman is morbidly obese.” Everyone in the waiting room heard. Nowhere to look after that. Another time, she ‘whispered’, “Do you think Dr. Chen is gay?”

Fortunately, though, she likes Pug’s family. She met his mom, dad, granmom, and a brother. She opined, loudly, how attractive they all are. Of course, if she’d thought they were the worst white trash since Roseanne, she’d have said so just as loudly.
