okay, so they weren't quite this bad, but frighteningly close.
i'm in mississippi this weekend, judging the Mississippi State Fair Talent Competition.
so far, i have 3 questions:
1. when did i become a "ma'am?"
as in,
yes ma'am the coffee is complimentary.
oh, god.
2. when did fried chicken-on-a-stick, fried onions, fried corn-on-the-cob, and fried pickles become a suitable dinner?
don't get me wrong, i loved every deep-fried bit of it, although i do think i'll still be digesting it a week from now.
3. when did it become appropriate for 13-year old girls to wear what i will henceforth refer to as "porn shoes?" glittery, clear lucite 3 1/2 inch high heels that they teeter about in while singing "Before He Cheats" (and what, pray tell, do you know about that?) go into any porn store in NYC, and you will see the shoes that i speak of. hey, i'm all for sexual adventurousness and stilettos, but i'm also 31. not 13. i couldn't even wear pantyhose until i was 14, and i still look like a retard in heels. i realize that i should allow for the fact that i'm in PageantLand, but all these gussied-up babies (and they are babies) in push-up bras and stilettos make me a little sad.
at 14, i was still sneaking up into the attic to play with Barbie. these girls are dressing like her, and their parents are footing the bill.
blech.
