Bob Tail
The Analog Of The Urban Soccer Mom
There is nothing like the vivacious vibe of the urban rebel I see on the freeways of Los Angeles every day. I see him looking so cool and hip. I wonder where he is going. He is most likely a great guy with a killer job in the entertainment industry, maybe the writer of the next big hit.
It’s really cool when I see them on the freeway. Of course they are wearing a helmet because they are cool and don’t play games with their lives. They are going down the open road with their laptop computer bags flapping in the wind in a cool designer color or some soft leather or canvas.
As I drive up to them I glimpse design tattoos on his arm that give him just the right amount of flair without being obtrusive. Of course this guy has tattoos, he’s a rebel and he just doesn’t care. He probably bit a bullet while they were inking him.
It would be so cool to ride the open road like that. I’d love to jump on a bike and take off. But then I realize I’d probably too chicken in LA traffic and feel better on a Yamaha ATV. The carpool lane is my home as my car is full of children getting to the next lesson they are scheduled for.
Alas I have chosen the life of the urban soccer mom. We are a proud race who barrel down the freeway so we aren’t late for an oboe lesson or football game. My tattoo however is pretty cool. I got it from a box of cereal the other day and it really rocks, you can’t beat Sponge bob.
My life is not for the squeamish. It takes a lot to do twenty loads of laundry a week and survive with soft skin. I drive on the open road and change lanes with skill to get my kids to guitar practice and dentist appointments. I am always ready with fruit snacks in my bag or an extra pony tail holder in assorted colors should an emergency arise.
I am a member of the urban mommy club who choose to bargain shop and drive thirteen miles out of my way to carpool in exchange for a free afternoon. I know all the Jonas Brothers songs by heart and can talk the lingo of the playground. I am hip in my own way and can make a balanced breakfast for five while applying make-up to get out of the door on time.
So as I pass the urban rebel in the lane next to me my hats off to him. He lives a life singleness and danger around every corner. With his bag blowing in the wind behind him he secretly knows how tough I am. I lead a life that he would not dare to lead.
