My father, a moment after he gets on the phone with my grandmother: "What? Jennie, it's not my birthday." We’re more than a little hungover here at Ventura Way. My mom is now trying to explain to my dad how the fanny pack she got him for Christmas isn’t really a fanny pack. He’s holding the phone pretty far away from his ear now. Merry Christmas. nathan j laney.

schweppes bitter lemon.
Never tell grandma that you’ve not feeling well. Tylenol, seltzer water, and a thermometer appear out of NOWHERE. Fever: 101, but that’s not the point. I swear to god she’s about to take me to the pediatrician. What am I even doing home? She automatically rounded it up to 102 when she called my mother, by the way.

the west coast delay.
When announcing my phone’s death to my parents, I really did not expect them to use it as a forum to give me shit. And that’s not even the really disturbing thing about this. “May” be their son? WTF? njl
