Friends Don't Let Friends Have Dry Skin
Mommy's always been concerned with how dry my skin is. "You only have one skin for your whole life!"
"That's not true," I tell her, "I actually have many, many layers of skin."
Her concern remains.
Today, I was curled up in a ball on the bed at the hotel room with Gan-Ma standing close by.
Mom: Ai-ya, Alexa! Your skin is so dry! Quick! Put this almond oil on!
*Gan-Ma starts putting some almond oil on my back
Mom: Alexa, I suggest you and a good friend get a bottle of almond oil from Whole Foods, and you guys can help each other apply the oil all over each other's bodies.
*I erupt with laughter*
Gan-Ma: Hah? You're so ticklish?
Me: I'm not laughing at that. I'm laughing at her.
Mom: What did I say now?
Me: I don't really put oil all over my friends' bodies...
Mom: What kind of bad friends do you have?
Me: I just don't think it's something I'd do with friends...
Gan-Ma: Oh, I get it. It's because you said "all over your bodies."
Mom: Well you don't have to put it all over your body. You can put it on the parts you don't want your friend to touch (motioning over her boobies).
Me: I just don't see that happening (I'm still laughing).
Mom: I thought you had good friends.
