46!!

I've been planning a nose piercing and wanted to know Emma's thoughts on which side of my nose I should get it ---

Me: So Emma, if I was to get a nose piercing which side do you think?

Emma: *stunned silence... she stared at me in complete silence for what seemed like forever* MOM!!! You're forty-six! Forty-six! That's crazy!!! You're forty-six!

Me: Are you saying you think I'm too old?

Emma: Forty-six! OH.... let me guess you want to impress men! (totally out of the left field as there has been no boyfriends, or even friends around -- don't believe in involving her in any of that... but that's another story)

Me: I don't think I need a nose piercing if I'm wanting to impress men... this one is just for me.

Emma: Forty-six!!!

All this got me cracking up and here comes the final blow....

Emma: Oh, and if you think it will be cool... no chance with that laugh!
