Generation gap, or not...

There is nothing quite as awkward as your mother asking you why your grandmother has a boyfriend, and you don't...

Yes, this is actually my case. And yes, Renee has asked me this recently.

For those of you wishing to have an update on the Tess-Harry love story saga, they are "en couple" as we say in French. A pair of lovebirds in their eighties, divided by geography and brought together (after 66 years apart) by their undying love (and razor sharp memories). Harry even sent her a gold chain with two pearls on it, so part of him "would be around her neck" just like the cashmere scarf she sent him.

They make me think that deep down, we all love like teenagers.
whatever that means.

Oh, and this just in - Alicia Keys is actually a nun.

Isn't the lesson here that you'll have plenty of time to have a boyfriend, but only a few more to enjoy your youth?

And you answer your own question from the title of your post when you refer to your mom as Renee.

somehow my mom brought us to call her and my dad (and my grandparents) by their first names...
