"I hate to interrupt your lovely conversation, but dinner is ready," says Mom as she and Aunt El set down the dishes they've been carrying on the table "Oh, and Kate, give Mozzie back his twenty."
"Do I have too?"
"Now."
I hand grudgingly hand Uncle Mozz his twenty, and he smiles. "Thank you Repo."
She sighs "How many times have I told you not to call me Repo."
"I forget... Mrs. Suit! Is this Merlot I spy?"
Aunt El is like an Angel in disguise. Seriously, she can make everyone happy at once without even trying.
"Yes, Mozz, I know it's your favorite."
We all sit down, me in next Dad who's next to Uncle Mozz. Mom is sitting across from me, next to Aunt El, and Uncle Peter's at the head of the table.
The door bell rings, and Aunt El gets up to answer it.
"Hi Diana, we were just sitting down."
"What?!" says Uncle Mozz "Lady Suit is here? I'm leaving."
Dad puts his hand on his arm and says "Mozz, she isn't that scary."
"Last time she was here, she arrested me!"
"Only because you stole my wallet!" Diana walks over and sits next to Mom.
"Your handcuffs chaffed my wrists, I should sue!"
I love listening to the two of them argue. It's like a freaking reality tv-show, Con vs. Fed.
"Calm down everyone! Seriously, can we please eat." Leave it to Mom to interrupt their hilarious banter.
