dinner conversation
so it was christmas eve and the whole fam was gathered in parentland. danny (my mom’s twin brother), his wife janice, their son billy. kevin and anna, sister #3, tony, the peanut, mom, dad, grammu, joey, jenni and their three boys.
we’re all settled in and most everyone has just finished dinner– except me, because i waited until everyone else was done getting their plates. so most everyone is done and i’m eating.
jenni was going on and on about how she made her own babyfood when my aunt anna starts talking about how she got three bikinis since losing 33 pounds and she was thinking of going to bermuda or cancun or florida or something.
“so jan,” anna shouted from the loveseat in the livingroom to aunt janice who was in the diningroom. “you got any bikinis since losing your weight?”
janice must have made some sort of gesture that i couldn’t see, but it go anna going.
“yeah, i know,” anna shouted. “i’m thinking of getting me a bikini wax. i’m kind of bushy and i don’t want anything peeking out.”
“STILL EATING,” i shouted from the couch.
“jenni you ever have a bikini wax?” anna asked.
“STILL EATING!” i shouted again from the couch.
“jod,” anna said, “i just never had one and i want to get other people’s opinions.”
“STILL EATING!” i shouted. “get other opinions after i’m done and left the room and what not.
thankfully the conversation quickly turned to hair styles or something.
When you really think about it, the conversation was about hair styles to begin with.
Hope you’re not eating.
