Your Mom Is Funny When She Is Stoned

Ok, basically I have a new roommate. I took Mom to the Dr. on Monday. He checked her out very quickly, said the same thing that I've been saying for two weeks and immediately got her an appointment for an MRI. Unfortunately, her pain meds had worn off and she was unable to lie still on the table. So we are back to square one. She needs the MRI before the doc can decide on a course of treatment. The soonest they can get her back in is Thursday, then she has to see the doc again and then they have to decide her treatment. IF she has to have surgery, I guess she is gonna be staying with me for a month or so. We shall see.

The bright side? I have her stoned out of her gourd on demerol. Sunday night, I cooked dinner for her and LMRP. Then they MADE me watch "Dancing With The Stars." (I swear I wanted to gouge my eyes out with a spork.) The were showing one couple dancing to the song "Save A Horse" by Big & Rich. They get to the chorus and Mom flops her head over the side of the couch and says ....."What are they singing?"

"What's that Mom?"

"I can't understand what they are singing."

"They are saying 'Save a horse, ride a cowboy' Mom." She had my attention at this point.

"Oh." Then there was a five minute pause before she said, "I thought they were singing 'Save a WHORE, ride a cowboy'" LMRP starts to giggle. Mom pauses for another couple of minutes......"Is that song from that Brokeback Mountain movie?"

I promptly gave her another 100mg of Demerol as a reward.
