That Is Uncool (TIU)

Oh my God, I am so uncool!

I remember my mother telling me that parents, especially mothers, go through a patch where they are VERY uncool. I am able to now narrow down the reasons that I am UNCOOL. Here is a start.........

1. Don't park here Mum, that is UNCOOL. (TIU)
2. Don't say that Mum TIU.
3. Are you talking like a Principal Mum? TIU (for God sake! 20 years as princ is going to make it my first response!)
4. Don't wear that Mum, TIU (well, if I wore short short, with tights and off the shoulder t-shirts with different socks and the boots, I would draw looks and likely, suggestions of psychiatric assessment. So who is uncool???)
5. Can we change radio stations? TIU ( I just want to hear the News!!!! I AM turning into my Dad)
6 Don't sing Mum, TIU ( I thought if I knew the words of remakes of old songs I would be REALLY cool- but apparently not!)
7. Don't kiss me Mum, TIU. (Yeah right! I know when it is bed time and I try to leave.........) (she is in there somewhere! I've seen it!!! )

There will be more. This is a thesis type study. Perhaps I can get funding from a University to do this research? I can do a masters on Things Mothers Do that are NOT COOL!
