Marty 1: OMG - I looked in the mirror.
Marty 2: Well, duh, most of us do that at least once a day to be sure that their hair doesn't look like something a brush hog spit out alongside the road. And your point is????
Marty 1: (whining, incredulous voice) There was an OLD woman staring back at me.
Marty 2: BWAHAHAHA - what have I been freaking telling you? You are OLD! Geeze - you are 60. That's like when dinosaurs roamed the earth.
Marty1: (small voice) But - I don't wanna be old.
Marty 2: (mean, sargeant voice) Tough cookie lady. Get those granny panties out and wear 'em.
Marty 1: NO. Don't want to. I want my big girl panties.
Marty 2: Hmmm - maybe we should review ZUMBA on Tuesday night.
Marty 1: (defiantly) So what about Zumba? I kept right up with those young chickies.
Marty 2: Um yeah, I could see that. Good grief - wiggle, wiggle, rah rah rah, cheese, butt gyrating until I thought yours would get stuck and fly off! You looked like a demented cat on catnip. You sweat so much, I thought I'd have to swim out of that room.
Marty 1: (growling) Quit picking on me.
Marty 2: Well somebody's got to talk some sense into that rock you call a head.
Marty 1: What do you mean (snarling just a tad).
Marty 2: (very reasonable voice) How old were those women at Zumba.
Marty 1: 20, 30, 40 (small voice)
Marty 2: You idiot - what possessed you to try to keep up with a 20 year old's butt wiggles and rah rah rahs and grapevine kicks and twirls and chainsaws and wiggles and ......
Marty 1: (screaming) SHUT UP! I put on my big girl panties and I was determined to stay up with them young uns.
Marty 2: (dripping sarcasm) And how did that work out for you?
Marty1: (ignores the question)
Marty 2: (louder) Hey old woman - I said - How did that work out for you?
Marty 1: (very small voice) I did OK.
Marty 2: (so much sarcasm, you are drowning in it) REALLY! And did I see you walk out of class to visit the porceline throne with 10 minutes left to go. What was that all about?
Marty 1: (very cross and snappy) Well, o.k. so I got a little hot, sue me. So I had to visit the porceline throne because of that. Sue me.
Marty 2: I rest my case, lady. Take those big girl panties, toss them in the back of your drawer and act your age.
Marty 1: (almost whimpering) But I wanna wear my big girl panties. I want to ride roller coasters, I want to stay up with the big girls. I want to do all the things I did when I was 20.
Marty 2: (huge sigh). Dear Lord, my work is never done. Rerun on this conversation tomorrow.
