MOM: Pass the wine, please. I want to become crazy.
DAD: O.K.
GRANDMOTHER: Did you see the politics? It made me angry.
DAD: Me, too. When it was over, I had sex.
UNCLE: I’m having sex right now.
DAD: We all are.
MOM: Let’s talk about which kid I like the best.
DAD: (laughing) You know, but you won’t tell.
MOM: If they ask me again, I might tell.
FRIEND FROM WORK: Hey, guess what! My voice is pretty loud!
DAD: (laughing) There are actual monsters in the world, but when my kids ask I pretend like there aren’t.
MOM: I’m angry! I’m angry all of a sudden!
DAD: I’m angry, too! We’re angry at each other!
MOM: Now everything is fine.
DAD: We just saw the PG-13 movie. It was so good.
MOM: There was a big sex.
FRIEND FROM WORK: I am the loudest! I am the loudest!
(Everybody laughs.)
MOM: I had a lot of wine, and now I’m crazy!
GRANDFATHER: Hey, do you guys know what God looks like?
ALL: Yes.
GRANDFATHER: Don’t tell the kids.

What do you do when you’re stressed and the only solution seems to be a 12-pack of beer? But you don’t really want to get drunk because there is too much to do?
No, it is not rhetorical. I’m actually asking! Help!
Where have I been?! Good question. Well, I’m still dealing with the frustration of not being able to fix whatever is wrong with Movable Type, so I still can’t enable comments. My webmaster is laying in bed where he has gotten up about five times today, and each time it was only to puke and go back to bed. My baby has turned into a clingy little monster. And on top of it all, this was the weekend the in-laws were in town.
But hey! Hey! I uploaded pictures! Be happy! Be appeased!
