What About Working Grandmas?


Grandma Ruth is stunned to learn that it's National Ruth Day, and I think she should really make the most of today. Celebrate by buying yourself some nice girdles!

I think Ruth will be less pleased--but Helen will be thrilled--to learn that it's also National Working Mom's day. After all, in her day...well, no one really cares what they did in your day, Ruth. Go stuff a girdle in it.

Today is also the anniversary of the episode "Camp Fear," which aired on this day in 2001. There were no Ruths or working moms in that one, but there was a greased watermelon. So I guess it evens out?

Fanfic Update!
  • Breaking Balmora, by welltemperedclavier (parts 3 and 4): "Jeval always liked going to Silk-hawker’s Street. It was the most colorful part of Balmora, what with all the streamers in reds, blues, violets, and more going between the buildings and tumbling down the walls." (Part 4)

  • Daria Agere, by RadioFox (part 14): "Quinn walked into the giant pink-hued Payday store with her yellow purse clutched in her arm. She walked through the automatic metal doors and went to search for the aisle she was looking for."

  • It’s Just Rock And Roll. It’s Not That Serious, by translayton (part 2): "'Hairspray? Hairspray, PLEASE?' Beavis’s hand twitched while he anxiously waited for one of the two other people occupying the cramped bathroom to hand over the product."

  • Purple Sweater, by Sheila Wisz Ellayn (parts 4 and 5): "That day, the football field of the powerful Lawndale Lions looked very different from usual!" (Part 5)
