The following conversation took place tonight in the car while the Dixie Chicks played in the background:
DC: "Maryann and Wanda were the best of friends..."
MAX: Hey mom, it's you!!
ME: You're right Max! Good job!
DC: "After graduation Maryann went out..."
CARTER: I love your singing mom, it sounds great!
ME: Huh?.. Oh, no that's not me singing, they just said my name.
CARTER: Oh.
DC: "She put on dark glasses and long sleeve blouses..."
MAX: Hey! She's just like me! I wear glasses too!
ME: Yep!
CARTER: Who's just like Max?
ME: Wanda. The other girl they're singing about.
DC: "that Earl had to die!"
CARTER: Mom, did you really do what they're saying you did?
ME: Oh no! They're not singing about me. They're singing about someone with the same name as me. But this is just a pretend song. They're just being silly.
DC: "The cops came by..."
CARTER: They said THE COPS! Just like daddy!
MAX: MY daddy catches bad guys.
CARTER: Is Earl a bad guy?
ME: Well, yes. In the song he is, but it's not real, remember? They're just pretending he is.
MAX: Yeah, and Earl wears glasses just like me!
CARTER: Earl wears glasses too?
ME: Um... sure.
MAX: Mom, I just love this song about you. Can we listen to it again?
ME: (sigh)
