Mom Reading Tomorrow Night!

My mom is reading tomorrow night at an "erotic reading series" produced by my friend RKB. Mom's totally worried her stuff isn't explicit enough to be included. I've told her it's not about that. I'm having dinner with her beforehand to calm her nerves. It's a very cool lounge and I encourage all NYC'ers to come. It should be a hoot.
