Olivia then proceeded to tell my brother in law that you feed babies with your boobies. Or you squeeze milk out of them (with hand motions) to put in a bottle to feed them. She then fed her stuffed tiger cub at the table.
I love it.
I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
OMG family gossip! Everybody has to spill on theirs since we don't know your families! Although ours has been mild this year. The SO called me at one point to say our racist uncle was making an idiot of himself as regularly scheduled and I should take a little longer at my errands. So I took a while looking at nail polish and by the time I got home all was well again. I usually have to walk out on him, but with the SO's help didn't have to this trip.

I could fill the rest of this thread with stories of my neighbor S's sisters' drama, but not mine...Well, SIL's, but...
Nice visit so far.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We debated democracy, intersex, performative sexual orientation, insurance and society, obsession with TV. Also Hollywood gossip with clips, and lots of technical troubleshooting.
I'm tired now, but not yet sleepy. Work it Ambien.

Oh, I remembered ours. My niece just got dumped by her boyfriend in Afghanistan, which would have been less awkward if she weren't living in his parents' house. Oops.

Thrive to spite them
I don't have any current interesting gossip for my family.
Cash that's really funny.
Evander made up a new song - Daddy has a penis! Nina has a Vagina! Evander has a penis! Tina has a vagina! (Nina=Mom, Tina is brother's GF) this is a song he has sung loudly and with gusto in public places.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The best gossip was after my grandmother died. And all my (older than me) cousins were talking about "that summer when we went to live with other relatives."
Well. Turns out my Uncle abandoned the family and my Aunt couldn't handle five kids so she sent them away.
Some of them were treated quite well. Others were literally sent to spend the day outside in the dirt and treated cruelly.
Then my Uncle came back after six weeks and all were reclaimed.
Also, he went AWOL in WWII which turned out to be an important career move for him. Also, his youngest daughter was fathered by another man. Which everybody in the family knew but her. She was his favorite.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Liese, you have a really good SO. Mine is the kind who would tell me to rush back because he likes my reaction when I'm in the middle of bullshit.
Apparently I am very entertaining when I am exasperated.
It does not FEEL entertaining at the time!

SO. Tired. Went running, took kids climbing, climbed, took kids to lunch, went home, fetched SIL, visited with parents, helped make dinner, cleaned up, lots of family talk and shepherding of three toddlers, created menu for Sunday, planned tomorrow, made meringues.
I am going to need a vacation to recover from my vacation.
