i think i'm going to start documenting
the mad stuff my family says and does as some of it is too good not to write down. i think they've gotten funnier since i've been away, or i just forgot. i'll call it overheard at the smiths (OHATS).
EPISODE I
my parents go to steak night at weatherspoons on a tuesday.
from the moment he woke up, all the way there and even while we were eating my dad sung the steak night song from scrubs.
EPISODE II
while watching the big bang theory my mum invented a drinking game and took a sip of wine whenever howard was creepy, whenever sheldon said bazinga and whenever raj got drunk.
EPISODE II: a personal favourite.
so i was telling mamapapa about ollie getting me and him gaga tickets for september (eeee!) in the car the other day and was referring to him as rico, as i tend to at the moment. mama then turned to nana in the front seat and said, to keep her in the loop, "you know sophie's friend, who sophie stayed with in sandbanks in the summer" and nana said "yes, ollie" AMAZED AS I WAS IT GOT BETTER as she then asked how his "shoe course" was going!
the woman has exclusively called me debbie my whole life and yet remembers ollie's name and what he's studying despite having met him MAYBE once.
