Nothing quite like your mother informing you, in no uncertain terms, that she's going on what can only be called a cougar cruise with her toy boy to really kill the guilt of not going home for the holidays.

I could've really done without the visual it left me with, but still. I suppose waiting for a visit in January works best for everyone.

	Come to Lux. Wash the image from your mind for a night. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	That might take more that I'm capable of drinking to get that image completely gone, but it's certainly worth a shot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The alternative is a lobotomy and I'm not really ready for that yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That is a far better evening to be having, given how insane Orange County is in general a bottle is probably standard medical practise by now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What's a cougar cruise?? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Older women with younger men, thankfully my mother isn't quite robbing the cradle, but some of her friends might as well be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh so very. Thankfully my mother's partner isn't quite as young as me. Although it's close. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is it wrong for me to say gross? I mean people can be with whoever they want but ew. Is it an actual cruise for cougars and their boyfriends or is it only a cougar cruise cause your mom's going on it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	soloing 2019-12-20 11:00 am UTC (link)
	It's not wrong, to each their own so I take no offence. It's aimed at 50+ women and caters mostly for those women who have younger partners but does employ an abundance of attractive younger males for said 50+'s to entertain themselves with. They do attempt to claim it's just a ladies cruise but still. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_mableton 2019-12-20 11:09 am UTC (link)
	Oh man. Do they do cruises for people who aren't 50+ that have lots of handsome men on them? That aren't gay? Last time I went on something like that I'd ended up on the wrong kind of cruise... It was only like a weekend so it was okay but yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	soloing 2019-12-20 11:11 am UTC (link)
	They do actually. I think there are cruises for just about everything. You probably want a single ladies cruise, which they tend to name after drinks like that will make any effect. A weekend is still a long time to think you're doing one thing but it's actually a completely different thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_mableton 2019-12-20 11:17 am UTC (link)
	Hm. Something to think about! I had a great time after I worked out what was going on. I've never been covered in so much glitter in my life. And I do love glitter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	soloing 2019-12-20 11:23 am UTC (link)
	Spring break is usually the best time. Just a thought. It is most definitely fun at the time, but the aftermath of glitter is never good. Three weeks and you're still finding little bits here and there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_ I mean, I'm probably too old now for spring break. I'm an old lady. Not old like cougar old. You say that like it's a bad thing! It's just many many tiny sparkly reminders of all the fun you had at the time! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Under thirty and you've got plenty to choose from -Spring Break is just when the weather works best from recollection. Many sparkly reminders as you navigate office spaces and leave sparkly trails that people question you about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_mableton 2019-12-20 12:43 pm UTC (link)
	I will think on it! So many sparkly reminders. All the sparkly reminders. If the people in your office can't appreciate glitter they are boring and old. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	soloing 2019-12-20 02:13 pm UTC (link)
	If nothing else it's a fun experience. Yes, they are all very old and very boring. That's their thing really. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lady_mableton 2019-12-20 04:00 pm UTC (link)
	I'm all about fun new experiences. That's true. You should get a job where people appreciate you. And glitter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Talk a friend into going with you, that way if the singles part doesn’t work out you’ll still have a good time. That’s probably true, but I really don’t like job hunting. (Reply to this) (Parent)
