Hmm.

This conversation really took place:

(Watching "The Real Housewives of NYC" - I know, I need to get a new show):

Mom: Wow. You're up late.
Me: (Looks at phone) It's 9:47. I would guess that most people are still awake right now.
Mom: I know. But this is really late for you.

You know you're secretly an old woman when...

Your mom can stay up later than you. And later = past 10:00 p.m.

Help.
