Mom's here

We were sitting around the living room talking and I was playing Meatloaf's "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" over the speakers just to 70's up the room a bit. Not 2 bars into the song mom laughs and tells me, "I got hit in the head with a rubber one time when this song was playing." (To explain, she was dancing on a bar and someone was trying to put a condom on a gourd and it slipped off and hit her in the head. Strangely, that's not enough of an explanation for me.)

Later after arguing with me about whether she was tired or just "resting her eyes," she closed her eyes for 2 minutes and uttered the following: "Man, that drink on the table kinda scared me." Before she passed out.

Gosh, I missed her.
