Imperadult

Imperadult: noun. An adult that has realized that being a parent has not made them smarter or all that much more coordinated.

OK, we know as parents we've had to really develop some otherwise lacking skills, like organization or time management. But, I realize, being a parent has not made me more much more savvy in pop culture (except for noticing age inappropriate clothing on little girls).

The other day, Husband said something profoundly silly, to which I replied, "It's always nice when Mickey Rooney comes to visit."

"What?" he asked.

"Mickey Rooney? Isn't he the one who says things like, 'It's not over 'til it's over'?"

"Yogi Berra."

"Yeah, him."

Sometimes, I am supermom, and other times, I feel like a moron.
