I come home from school one holiday, and my mom runs up to me and says she's soooo excited because she got a nice book on clearance for $5 at Barnes & Noble.
"Happily Ever After".. so I decide to rip off the $5 clearance sticker on the cover just to make it prettier, only to find the rest of the title to say..."how to find peace after a divorce. a book of devotions."
to find this funny, one needs to understand how happily married my mom is and how she would never ever think about getting a divorce. my mom bought a book to help her with her English, unknowingly buying a Christian book on dealing with divorce. Quotes from the book: "Jesus Christ is with you even though you may feel so alone after the failure of your marriage." but after oh mom! Gotta love her!
the best part:
Me: "Mom, did you know this book is for divorcees?"
Mom: "What? oh really??? oh, good! I'm sure one of my daughters may need to read it someday. you never know jennipuh! it'sah goood chance. i just prepare!"
