Wherein I make jokes and people don’t get them.

August 30, 2010 by Louise

In the ongoing renovations to their side of their house, my parents are replacing the ceiling lights. My brother and his wife are getting new windows. Anyway, when I was over there yesterday, I noticed a big box in my parents’ livingroom (it was hard not to notice) that said “Maxim lighting” on it.

Yes, yes, I know that’s just the company’s name, but I started half-giggling. “Are you doing a photoshoot? Mom? What are you going to wear?” It did not Bring the Laughs. Basically, it Brought The Confused Looks From Sixty-Three Year Olds. It also Brought The Awkward No One Got My Joke Feeling. Not that I’m not used to that.
