Did I ever tell you the story of the glow-sperm?
On the day I passed my driving test I finally had the right to my car keys, they were mine. All mine. However, they were pretty boring looking - All I had on them was my car key, house key, school locker key and some trolley token from some organisation I don't are much for.
I mentioned to my Mum that I wanted to get a keyring or two to jazz them up a bit.
'Ooh!' She goes.
I stand in bemusement and wonderment as she rummages through her handbag and hands me an bright pink sperm-shaped keyring.
I took it from her and stared at it for a while. 'What?'
'Its a sperm keyring. I got it from some stall at a health fair I was working at and thought it was funny. Do you want it?'
Uhhh.... 'I'm OK thanks....'
So here she says: 'Are you sure? It even glows in the dark!'
What?! This was one of the most surreal moments of my life. It took me about ten minutes to persuade my Mum that it was weird to put a glow-in-the-dark sperm on your keys. That it would raise questions and that it wasn't 'cute'.
So that's that.
She then proceeded to tell me about the queue of guys at the same stall waiting for free chlamydia tests. That did make me chuckle.
