Scene From My Life: Mother
Nov. 24th, 2010 12:20 amBackground information: Due to my horrible sinus infection, I haven't been able to smell anything for more than a week. Since sense of taste is largely sense of smell, I can't really taste food at the moment.
INT. DINING ROOM - LUNCHTIME
Amy has just returned home from class and is looking for something to eat.
MOM
Why don't you eat the pumpkin soup I brought home from Aunt Marge's?
AMY
You know, I still can't smell or taste anything...it would be wasted on me. Why don't you eat it?
MOM
Oh...but I already told Marge that you enjoyed it.
AMY
??? Why did you tell her I'd enjoyed it when I haven't had a chance to eat it yet?
MOM
Well, everyone was talking about it on Facebook and saying how good it was, and I had to say something...
AMY
... ????
WHAT HAS FACEBOOK DONE TO MY MOTHER?
