All the guide books tell you, 'line up for the Vatican museum early.' So what do we do, like the sheep we are? We line up early (also, we were up early and had nothing else to do).
We wait from about 9 am, get in the place at 11. We ask the guy selling tickets if there is a student discount. There is, but you have to be from the EU, or under 18.
Ticket Guy: How old are you?
Me (lying): 20.
Ticket Guy: 18?
Me (lying more): Yes, her too. Two please.
So we lied to the Vatican to save €5 each. That, apparently, is the price I've put on my soul.
And the worst part, as we leave the museum at about 1 pm, we pass the entrance. There was one guy walking in.
No line.

Do you mean no queue? Because remember: In Europe, there are no lines, only queues.
Don't sweat it. There should be no entry fee for the Vatican. WTF?
What a classy gal, that mom of yours.
And anyway, God knows who you are. He will expect you to pull something like that.
She's your mom.
