“Tommy want wingie.” Last night was the re-telling-of-every-funny-TommyBoy/SNL/Family Guy-line in the history of popular culture. Pretty typical for a Priebe Graduation Party. And now I am hungry for wings. That’s pretty typical as well. It was discovered, too, that Lil’ Gus finds Robin’s laughing-snort hilarious. And, yep, my “grandpa laugh” came out when Alisa said that Mom had “bean burn.”
Can I use all that laughing as abdominal exercise for the day? Place it on the chart, kids!
In true oddball-form, for our family, I created tees with the letters J E D on ‘em (black tees & white duct tape) for my two sisters and I to wear to the FargoDome. Jed said he could see us from the ground-level, and that was cool. Embarassing him has always been one of our strengths as sisters (although, Hilary got in on it too by being an exclamation point, so she’s “in” for sure now – like there was any doubt!). I do have to give credit to my boss, W.K., for coming up with the idea.
That may or may not have been the last graduation for our family… as Dad grilled, he eyed my sisters and I after this was brought up (that is, after the terms “may or may not” were used). Robin has mentioned getting her Master’s as has Alisa (she’d probably shoot for an M.F.A.). And, yea, I’ve thrown it around that I haven’t completed outlawed the idea of a Ph.D. Maybe I’ll just wait it out and get an Honorary one some day from some college? Na… that’s not my style.
