I’m doing something this weekend I’ve never done. I’m taking the girlfriend home with me for my family reunion.

Sure I’ve had one or two girlfriends meet my family, but that’s only ever been mom, dad and maybe my sister. Never mom, dad, sister, and the whole kit and kaboodle. She’s very nervous mostly because she thinks she’ll say something inappropriate, even though I keep telling her my family is so laid back it’s scary.

However as we get closer I’m getting slightly nervous if only because I can only imagine the kinds of questions I’m going to have to field from the various aunts. Or maybe all my other similarly aged relatives [ie, my sister and my cousin Frankie] have already done all the smashing of those silly walls they have and no one will ask anything silly.

One thing’s for certain though, we’re going to Artie’s on Friday night and hot-damn am I going to eat a shitton of ozzie rolls and probably a huge rack of ribs.
