Good, crazy, typical Celia Rivenbark humor!

Here's her "take" on a 1950's advice book for wives:

Textbook: "Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so that you'll look refreshed when hubby comes home from work. Touch up make-up and put a ribbon in your hair. He's just been with work-weary people. Be a little gay. His boring day needs a lift."

Mama Celia: "Get knee-walking drunk. You've earned it. You've been with four kids under the age of 7 all day. Put a ribbon in your nose and try to pull it out of your mouth. You're wasted, after all. Announce you're gay. Tha look on his face will give you a lift."
