Work in Progress

You oughta hear the mirror in my house You oughta fear her pretty, pretty mouth Says I’m imperfect in every way: “Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway”/...But I’m gonna burn, I’m gonna shine and multiply I’m gonna fill up the great divide You’ll never break me with all the things you say “Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway”

Another dinner comedy.

Oh my goodness.
So my brother and I were making fun of my mom because she eats her tater tots with a fork.
Nate: *starts talking about making prank calls to the police/filing fake police reports*
Me: *cuts up sandwich and spears it with fork* Look! I have a sandwich on a fork! *in a singsong voice* Sandwich on a fork...Sandwich on a fork...
Mom: *laughs*, but a menacing laugh not a funny one.
Dad: You should try that Friday night with your buddies.
Me: (thinking he's talking about me and my friends on Friday night) But we're having chicken parmesan...
Dad: *gives the weirdest look I've ever gotten*
Me: *laughs to the point of sobbing*
Dad: Look! Rachel gets a joke someone told last week!!
Me: (in between laughs/sobs)You...were talking to Nate...about the police thing...I thought you meant me! And the sandwich on a fork!!!
*everyone dies*
Later...
My brother answered the phone and, for some odd reason, went outside with it. He's walking around. When he walks by the grill, which is wet from this morning's downpour, he sticks his hand in the water. He comes back in.
Mom: Why did you put your hand in the water?
Nate: *blank stare*
Dad: Was it Holy? You forgot to do the cross.
Nate: Um...I was drying my hand.
Us: In the water?!
Nate: Um...yeah...wait! No.
Yes. I'm not the only easily confused person here.
And the best part ever.
Nate was in the other room.
Nate: I think the birds can hear me through the window!
Us: ...
Nate: (yells) AAAAHHHHHHHH!!! *runs at window* *thud from contact with window* Yeah. They can hear me!!

I wish we had this recorded sometimes...
