So just in case you couldn't tell from previous conversations recorded in my blog, here's how you can tell that I was raised in a family of smart asses:
Me: So, _____ asked me to speak on a panel Saturday night for the youth group event.
Mom: Really? What about?
Me: She asked if I could talk to the kids about how I use spirituality on a daily basis to help me overcome challenges with my career.
Aunt: That's great!
Me: Yeah, so I thought I'd stand up, and the first thing I would say to the kids would be-
Aunt and Mom: "What career?"
Me: Hah. Hah. Hah. Very funny.
(Pause)
Me: I hate you both.
Mom: Really? What about?
Me: She asked if I could talk to the kids about how I use spirituality on a daily basis to help me overcome challenges with my career.
Aunt: That's great!
Me: Yeah, so I thought I'd stand up, and the first thing I would say to the kids would be-
Aunt and Mom: "What career?"
Me: Hah. Hah. Hah. Very funny.
(Pause)
Me: I hate you both.
Also, in case you're wondering, my mom and aunt are identical twins, so quite frequently I'm not only getting crap from both of them, but crap from both of them at the EXACT SAME TIME. You try arguing with twice the regular amount of sarcasm.
Anyways, I hope you all had lovely Labor Day weekends and are enjoying a short week as much as I am :) Happy Tuesday to y'all!
