Do you know what Chisme is? Oh yeah you do! Even if you don’t know Spanish you know what it is because it’s nothing but good old fashioned gossip.
Juicy Chisme, how I love thee!
It’s fun to get together with girlfriends and shoot the shit. Someone’s dating a hottie? Do tell! Do I want to know who got plastic sugery? Hell yeah! So in so is in jail for what?! I love it!
You know what’s not fun? The Chisme that goes on in my family. I can’t stand it. I want to yell: Stop it! Leave me out of it! I don’t want to know!
Insidious Chisme, how I hate thee!
Damn Chisme can be so destructive! It’s so destructive that my mother and brother are not speaking to each other. All because of Chisme!
I can’t get into the details with you because that would be Chisme and not the good kind. Suffice it to say that I am not taking sides over stupid Chisme. What’s the point? I love them both and nothing good can come of this.
The mother in me feels terrible that any child would reject its mother; the child in me is heartbroken that any mother would stop speaking to her baby; and the grown up in me just wants them both to stop being so petty.
At the end of July, we are flying down for a visit and my daughter will not have the pleasure of enjoying her grandmother and uncle at the same time. All because of Chisme!
Please remember:
Chisme doesn’t hurt people.
People hurt people.
Alcohol and Chisme do not mix.
and
“Great people talk about ideas.
Average people talk about things.
Small people talk about other people.”
