What did I think:
Clark could hear the frustration and irritation in her tone as she launched into a classic Lois Lane babble, "Oh, she did that too, but the main thing was she wanted make all of the arrangements for the wedding. She has her friend at the cleaners rushing a cleaning of the gown, we sampled cake at the local bakery, Maisie is going to cater the reception. She ran into some of your friends, if I remember correctly, it was Pete and that other guy … I think his name is Billy, anyhow they are borrowing chairs from the Grange Hall or somewhere to set up for the ceremony and to top it all off she wanted to show off her soon to be daughter-in-law to all of her friends. I felt like a prize hog in a 4-H contest. I was just waiting for someone to hang a blue ribbon around my neck."
This reminds me of how my mother-in-law introduced me to people in Ted's home town. Nearly twenty-years later its side splitting funny. Than, not so much so!
With all the additions to the story, there is a definite feeling of 'Smallville atmosphere.' The place is very real to me!
