Lauren and a Boy Named Carlos

Heather - as we all know has continuous drama in her life and feels the need to include us in this drama on a daily basis. She has been friends with Lauren ever since elementary school. The two of them are like the bopsy twins. Both are drama magnets and deserve each other.

Lauren who is loud, obnoxious, demanding and has no social skills at all, decided to break up with her boyfriend for a new man. She decided that it would be a nice to date someone from - only God knows where....let's just say Honduras and his name is Carlos. Well Carlos can't speak a word of English and Lauren can't speak a word of Spanish. The two of them came up with their own form of communication...SIGN LANGUAGE! From the stories, Holly and Heather have told me, this is a sight to behold. Lauren tells him I love you by snapping her fingers at him then points to a bracelet that reads "I love you". She will ask him if he wants somnething to drink by holding an imaginary cup to her mouth and acting like she is drinking something. I think he does some kind of action back to her...I didn't catch all the details. They call each other "Poppy and Mommy" from a song.

Heather took 2 years of Spanish and has become their translator. I think she taught them a few words. Heather told me that Lauren calls their form of communication "Spanglish".

Lauren is in school and still lives at home with mom and dad. She hides Carlos in her bedroom without them knowing...he hides between the bed and wall until mom and dads leaves for work!
