not-so-undercover mother

today while at the nearly deserted local laundromat i was privy to a conversation that would rival a jerry springer episode.  as i moved the massive tangle of sleepers, bibs, and generally tiny clothing to the dryer i listened to a laundromat patron air her sexual exploits to the employee who is often found staring at the wall hung television tuned to daytime crap such as springer.  at one point the girl extracts herself from her prattling long enough to acknowledge my presence and apologize for the content of her chattering.  the employee says to her, "oh, she probably doesn't mind.  she was young once, too."

damn. 

i treated her to an, "oh, no you didn't."
