Family (dys) Functions

So, Christmas trees are being packed up, lights taken down and tinsel packed neatly away...except for those odd couple of strands that hide beneath coffee tables only to find their way into the intestines of your cat which never ends well, if you know what I mean.
Now, if you are lucky, you will have the time to reflect and relish the memories of being with friends and family.
Family.
Family dynamics.
Funky family functions (dys?).
Only we can't talk about them now because they are still alive.
Well...
Okay, maybe just a little.
Have you ever played Pictionary with my brother-in-law?
It's ridiculous.
I have a question...
If you were going to draw the word "soul" for your spouse during an all-play, what would you draw?
Obviously the sole of a shoe. How the heck else would you draw the word soul?
Well, my husband drew a body. That's a far as he got.
His brother took it a step further. He drew a body with wings and started penciling a harp before getting rudely interrupted by the intelligent opposition who drew the bottom of a shoe, leading their partner right to the answer.
A HARP!!!
Can I just say something?
This coming from the A+ university student genius of the family!
Oh he's genius alright. He's the shining star that illuminates the whole wide world with his exceptionalism.
Sure, sure Russensation. Believe what you will. But I can only imagine how you would sketch a heart.
Where does the left ventricle go again? ;)
