  Carol's Family part 2
So anyway Carol’s family…
You taught me in the rooms what to do when I am feeling terribly self-conscious like I was with Carol’s family. I am supposed to forget myself by serving others. F*** that, I thought on Sunday, I was not having any of it. So there I was a fish or should I say a Protestant out of water in a room full of Colombo’s. In this room the hugs and kisses flow like the wine and the medaling. And then there was the food, oh my God the food. There is always so much food I stopped asking to bring anything years ago. Taking food to the Colombo’s is like taking water to the ocean. With all the food I did what any unrepentant self absorbed asshole would do, I ate. I ate and I ate and I ate and then it was time for the entrée. I did manage to ask Aunt Me (short for Marie) how her health was in between bites. Mostly however, I ate.
 
Comments:
Sounds like a great family!
What kind of food? You just made me hungry!
I like your page here. I'll be back!
 
You are fabulous with expressing yourself. This blog is not only insightful and interesting but fun as hell, too. Thanks for sharing you with the rest of us out here!
