Show Up or Shut Up

I have a strange confession to make. I love mean old women. I think what draws me to them is the way they carry themselves that says they’ve figured life out, that they’re too aware of the world around them to give a damn what other people think. I’m thinking of vicious, conniving, driven old women who have their aged husbands wrapped around their fingers. I’m thinking of manipulative, cunning, cruel old women who send back bottles of wine and have no qualms telling their grandchild their Valentine’s Day finger-painting is crap. I’m thinking of Mom from Futurama; Karen from Will and Grace; my high school English teacher; John McCain’s 96 year-old mother, Roberta; Hillary Rodham Clinton; Lucille Bluth.
