single mothers: welcome?

Posted: April 17th, 2010 | Author: emily | Filed under: gchats | 2 Comments »

me:  should it make me feel weird that a craigslist ad says at the bottom “single mothers welcome” ?
for their job applicants?
AJ:  i think it should make you feel weird if it said “single mothers not welcome”
me: i would probably think it was funny
AJ:  i would apply just because of it
me:  would you say you were a single mother?
AJ:  yes
me:  even though they EXPLICITLY said single mothers not welcome?!
AJ:  yes. and i would prove that i am just as able as everyone else
me: this is sounding very inspirational
AJ:  hahaha
me:  like a movie
AJ: ”he was a single mother, trying to make ends meet”
me:  hahahah “HE”
AJ:  yup. because i’m starring in this movie
me:  how can we sell audiences on the idea of a male single mother
AJ:  that’s the twist, to draw people
me:  “what?! how can HE be a mother?!” “…and how is he going to make ends meet?!”
AJ:  by proving he is just as able as everyone else
me:  …that answers the second question, but not the first. actually, or DOES it answer both?
AJ:  it does
me:  i guess we’ll have to head to theatres on MAY 9th, 2010 to find out. (that’s mother’s day btw)
AJ:  hahaha. perfect
me: too bad we can’t call our movie “mr. mom” cause i think that one’s already been taken

    It’s always an honor when I’m featured in your posts.
