My little Mommy, I miss her so!

[roxy]

I've been thinking about my mom a lot, because I miss her, and this kind of popped into my head.

My mom loved, and I mean like you love Lex or Clark or Spike or...you get the picture, anyway, she loved Alexander the Great--loved him! Loved Mary Renault's book, Persian Boy.

She loved Michaelangelo and thought the David was perfect if modest in some areas.

She loved Albrecht Durer's portrait of himself, the young one in the white shirt,where he looks like an angel?

She was fascinated by Ludwig II, thought he was a romantic figure.

She adored Leonardo DaVinci, who was also an angelic looking young man.

And they all share something in common, except old Albrecht, I have no idea there...

So, I'm thinking, this slashing thing--genetic?

Gee! I wish she were still with us, she'd get the biggest kick out of this. So, here I am, feeling a little nostalgic, feeling my roots as it were.

Here's to you mom, thanks for being the good influence on me that you were!

Your mom sounds like she was really cool. If she were still around, she'd be watching Smallville and slashing, I bet. Do you have a picture of her you could post like you did with your dad?

Hee. Moms. My later mother loved loved loved loved loved Johnnny Depp. Every time I'd go home to visit, mother would say, "Hey, should we have a Johnny Depp film festival?" She saw every movie he'd ever done at least 20 times. I'm sure of it. Damn, I wish she'd gotten to see Pirates of the Caribbean. I know sh'ed of loved it.

Random Mom moments. We were watching that movie "Stealing Heaven" when my father came in and said, "That man is naked. And he has huge schlong! Why are you watching porn with your daughter, Mother?"

My mother and I were playing scrabble one holiday years ago, and I didn't have any more words to play. (I thought.) I was all sad. My mother came over and looked at my letters and said, "Oh, silly, look. You can spell *cunt*" She then spelled it for me.

My dumb brother had friends coming over, and he came over to look at our game. He quickly saw *cunt* on the board. He got all hysterical, "You can't have *cunt* on the board while my friends are here. Get rid of it before they get here!" My mother just said, "Oh shut up! *Cunt* is in Chaucer. Grow up!"

My mother was sooo cool.
