Oh well, time to break down and get something better anyway!
Mom is enjoying herself, I'm ready to have her back to her house. I don't know... I like my alone time during the day when everyone is gone. I used to be a loner when I was younger, and I liked it. The alone time I get helps me deal with the NOT alone time later in the day.
Snowed here the last couple of days, an inch or so, suppose to get crappy weather here tonight into tomorrow. Thankfully Hubby is off work tomorrow, depending on the weather we may not send Son to school.
We've been bugging Son about getting his hair cut for eons now. All he agrees to is a trim. Now that Grandma offered to buy him a videogame, he's all for having it cut. To me, that's ridiculous, and he's got to learn that a boss isn't going to offer him a bonus for doing what he should be doing at his job. I can't go back on the offer, but we need to have a discussion about this. That'll wait till Mom is back home.
BTW, he asked us yesterday if he could WALK into town (about a mile straight across our road) and meet a buddy to go see a movie. Now, I knew to expect this, but I don't know the "friend", so I don't feel as comfortable about it. I know he is a teenager, and wants more freedom, but he's having issues in French class, bombed a test yesterday, and we need to have that issue worked out first.

Bombed a test? Oooooh... If it were me, I'd tell him no movie. I'd drive him into town and run some errands and do some shopping and meet him in exactly 2 hours at some fast food place. Of course "downtown" here is only about 3 blocks each way, so I'd have an easy time checking up on him. Choose your battles. His hair might be annoying, but at least he hasn't pierced anything yet, or had a friend give him a tattoo. Like my kid did. Oy.

He never went to the movie, he was told that since Grandma was here, he needed to spend time with her.
BTW, the whole hair thing? Grandma offered to buy him a video game if he agreed to a haircut. And he did! But the haircut had to be what I wanted, not his "barely a trim" type. I compromised though, instead of doing the hair the whole way down to a size 5 trimmer, I asked the stylist to something between what I wanted and what HE wanted. She cut his hair pretty short, but it still has curl to it when it's washed, so there is length there. He's OK with it, and I'm happy that his hair isn't a white afro now. If he even THOUGHT about having a tattoo done, his gaming shit would be history. I'd sell it all and he'd have to get a job to buy his own.

I was trying to be fair about the hair. Fair.... hair.... that's part of an old George Carlin joke.

Have you heard of Lewis Black? He makes me laugh like Carlin did.

Yes I have. I never checked out his stuff though, I'll look him up next time I'm on Youtube, which should be later today. Thanks for the reminder.

OMG, you will LOVE his humor. I have a Slacker radio station with the title Weird Al Yankovic Rocks, I've got Carlin, Al, Robin Williams, Bobcat Goldthwait, and Wanda Sykes on it.
Don't drink anything when you listen to Lewis Black, you'll either spit it out or cough on it while laughing.
He does bits on The Daily Show once in a while, you've probably seen him there.

I don't remember him ever being on the Colbert Show, but he has had specials on HBO and stuff.
We bought one of his albums, let me know if you want to hear it.
