  • lunch

    The family and I went out to lunch today.  Since everyone's in town I have to catch up on my "lunches" with them.  Everytime the dogs pen gets clean up by Daddy I owe him a lunch.  

    We went out to O'Charlies cause there was a convenient coupon.  He has problems deciding on things lately.  He'll generally not have an opinion or order or decide to do whatever someone else decides.  
    Today was no exception.  Thankfully he saw a coupon and decided where to go quickly.  And we got to the restraunt where we all chit chatted about extended family stuff.  (there are a few dramas going on at the moment in several branches which i won't go into at the moment)
    Mom obviously didn't want to discuss her side of the family so we went on to Daddy's.  While talking he stabbed a roll with his knife and procede to eat it "Viking" style!  This tickled me for some reason.  And I laughed for a good 5 minutes before I finally said something coherent.  

    "Daddy did you turn into a Viking today?"
    "Huh?"
    "Well you just stabbed your roll and ate it with your fork."
    "I did."

    Got to love it.  If you aren't laughing you'll be crying so disfunction is my life sometimes.  

    So I proceded to tell them about the pirate I found in the family tree.  Mom didn't sound disgruntled after that and Daddy seemed pretty much out of it before anyway.    But I keep it going....

    Later on I grabbed my fried catfish by my fingers and Daddy looked over at me and asked me if I was part Viking too.  I told him I was part Caveman.  No tools.

  • Your dad was cute eating that roll viking style. Good family lunch date!

  • I have never known a cavewoman. I should be careful how I treat you or you might hit me over the head with a club and drag me off as a trophy.

    I am glad you enjoy your dad. I have a daughter who enjoys my nonsense. I remember a movie called the 'The Vikings.' I loved it. The photography was wonderful.  The Vikings make it to American first long before Columbus.
    Hope you are doing well. I am writing to you from Starbucks and am in a good mood as nice looking cavewomen walk in and out of the shop.

  • It's nice to be able to laugh with family instead of it being drama all the time.

  • Sometimes you just have to laugh or it would really get to you!

  • @endlesssummer128 - it's my theory too. Better to laugh than cry.

  • @HUMOR_ME_NOW - I'm doing ok. A little Icky:-/
    I wanted to watch the Vikings tv show and somehow my work schedule screwed it up. Maybe I can catch it on demand during my vacation next week.
