Lookers

The other day in the car Big Kid asked, "Mom, what's Lookers?"

Oh shit, I thought. Lookers is a strip club. How would he know about a strip club? The radio! He does listen to radio advertisements. I can tell he already knows something is up, what can I say, what can I say shit shit shit.

I tried to remember the commercial so I could give a reasonable explanation but all I could remember was "L Ohh Ohhhhhhhhh K E R Sssssssssssss, Lookers! Looohhhhkeeeerssss.

"Uh, I don't know...? What? Why? "

"Lookers. L Oh! Oh! K E R S What do they do there?"

"Yes. I'm not--er, it is a...well, I am not sure."

"Could you call them?"

"..."

"I was thinking they could help us find Tangerine. Since they maybe look for things, maybe they look for lost cats?"

"Uh...yeah." And I left it at that.

And then turned off the radio forever.

I was taking the girls (Baby Girl and her BFF) to school the other day and that Mariah Carey Touch My Body song came on. I didn't know what to do. I was scared turning it off would bring even more attention to it because there were trying to sing it. Not a good parenting moment.

Oh, that's so sweet and innocent though, that he wanted to call and see if they could find the cat. Love this story, but yikes, glad I wasn't having that conversation.
