Different Reactions

I told my mother about the Iran interview for Azerbaijan. Her reaction was, “Why did they interview you? Is it because you are blonde? And they are into blonde women?”

If my father were alive, his reaction would be, “of course, they wanted to interview you. You are the most brilliant person ever. I’d be shocked if they didn’t want to interview you.”

I rarely saw my mother during my formative years from birth to age five, and here’s the result.

    1. The only Azeris she met were selling fruit at the farmer’s market and endlessly cat-calling blonde women. So that’s the origin of the comment. 😀😆😀

        Great idea for a telenovela: “Una güera en Bakú”
