cradle robbing

at dinner tonight i told my coworkers this story about how my mom tried to set me up on a blind date. then my friend linda just asked me if my parents try to set me up. so here goes...

i think i was living in sf at the time and i came home to visit the folks in houston. i'm guessing this was around 1999. as if on q, they ask if i'm seeing anyone. i probably wasn't so i told them no. my mom leaves the room and comes back with a picture. she tells me she just saw her old college friend when my mom and dad went back to taiwan for her college reunion. she says her college friend has this daughter and then hands me a picture.

i shit you not, this girl looked 14. i literally said "mom, what's wrong with you!?!" she starts laughing and said something like "what? when she's 18 you'll be twenty(something)". i told her never to set me up. she's a funny woman.
