Mom's New Friend

So my Mom made a new friend this week, and this is her story.

She was at the grocery store checking out and saw an older man checking out at the next lane with.... light up earrings.  I immediately think old tranny mess.  She thinks oh, I love those earrings.
As she went to her car she realized earring guy was parked next to her, and being the social butterfly that she is, she just HAD to say something.   After a quick chit chat with this guy, she found out, they are magnetic earrings that he sells.  This little business pays for gas money so he and his wife can travel in their RV.
I know what you're thinking. Yes, he's married. No, he doesn't MAKE the earrings, he imports them from Hong Kong.  Also, he wears them to the grocery and doctor appointments, etc. as a form of advertising.  Turns out, he's a pretty clever guy.  He's also quite self confident if he's wearing light up earrings in public. He also has a card.
And earrings aren't the only thing he sells.  This card is hilarious!  Of course my Mom is obsessed.  She had to call me to tell me about this guy and of course tell me about HER new earrings.  Oh yes, she got some, and she's super excited about wearing them to the park next weekend.  Watch out! Here she comes.
And not only does she have those fancy martini light-ups; she has margarita ones too.  Those and a new fun friend!  Weekend complete.
