Libertine
Noun. A person who leads an immoral life.
Mom’s friend Shelley came over the other night. Her husband was away again, and she and Mom were sitting in the living room, drinking wine and talking but also giggling about stuff. It wasn’t even that late–Mom hadn’t yet bothered to start cooking dinner. It was looking like a pizza night again. So I went in and asked what was for dinner. “Oh, Henry, you sweet thing,” Shelley said before Mom could reply. “Look at us, sipping wine and acting like school girls. We must look like a bunch of libertines!”
