Wow, it is only Saturday midday and I have already been out
and about! So. I woke up early so I could catch my goddaughters/cousins dance
recital…and holy smoley…it was one of the cutest things ever. I was dumbfounded by the cuteness of it all! It was so
glittery and adorable…and then the woman sitting next to me ruined it…but she
was just a terrible person (I may or may not have gotten into a shouting match
with a stranger…)
Ok, so last night I was supposed to go out with friends…Before
I was able to leave, the Torre house was invaded with my parent’s friends.
Firstly, I enjoy these people so I did not mind that they arrived unannounced
and came in with a rush of “fiery italian-ness” and a Panetone (Panetone makes
everything better).
As I said…I have no issues with these people
what-so-ever…they are some extremely interesting characters and I love when our
families get together…my one issue from last night has nothing to do with
them…my problem was that my mother left me in charge of being The Host”.
Ok, so the duties of “The
Host” are to act charming and stuff…be witty…and whatever. The difficulty
is that my mother usually goes off on tangents which provide no help, cause
chaos, and make me a horribly nervous person.
Her main technique of doing this is when she says things
such as:
“Can you get out the
tall cups…but not the heavy ones with the bottoms!”
Or
“Go get that thing
from the room” (what room?! what thing?!)
Or my personal favorite
“Matteo, tell them the
story about that one time…” (this example is my favorite because usually
when my mother says this example, it was an event I was not part of or even knew
about)
Anyone have that experience…I would love to hear some of
those questions…
Anyway it was there were some crazy conversations and I
really like when people invade my house! Anyway tonight I have an outing with
some people! Happy Saturday everyone…hope everything is going amazing out in
the Cyberland
CHEERS, SALUTE, CHIN CHIN!!!
