So yesterday was my grandma's birthday. My mom was in town today, so we had the bday dinner tonight. Me being the great granddaughter i am, i wander over to Urban to purchase a lil gift. Not only did I come out with a red glass buddha head, my grandma frickin loves it, she can't get enough of it. My great aunt proceeds to say that it looks like the "llama dali," otherwise know as the "dali llama." Needless to say, my family starts their happy hour at 4:30 sharp.
Anywho, we finally make to it my grandma's resturant of course (Red Lobster), where she proceeds to order a rum and coke with an extra shot. She harasses the waitress to turn down the damn heat and move this awful light that's shining in here face. After asking for 36 refills on the rolls, we decide it's time to go, but not before grandma starts to cry and my mom begins hacking in the corner (she's sick), well that pisses my grandma right off and she proceeds to flick her off................finally on the car ride back to my apartment, somehow these old folks start talking about sex. My grandpa makes the statement that all the widows in their neighborhood would run away with him, other than his sister in-law. goooooood, something great for my grand ma to hear. "Now Bill, you just better watch what the hell you're saying." Then somehow the anger turns to me and i get a "GOD DAMNIT Carly, when you gunna bring that damn Adam around so I can meet him?!??!!" "and tell him I'm anxoius."
I get out of the car and say my goodbyes, but Aunt Joyce needs just one more picture of my mom and i....in the middle of Water's Edge drive....then my grandma continues to bitch my mom out for parking across the street because she doesn't want me to have to cross it..........well shit.....a night out with the sloppy fam can really wear you out..........
adios
