I was wrong.
Her family is not normal. But I guess you already knew that based on the fact that McLoserstene never allows her face to be seen on the internet.
This is their dog, Dali. This is their backyard, where they asked me to sleep.
This was the tablescape for Thanksgiving dinner. Mrs. McLoserstene has an obsession with fake food: coffee, pastries, pizza, olives, etc. It is always strategically placed in areas that would not invite suspicion so I spent 15 minutes waiting for others to eat first just to make sure that I wouldn't be the only one to die of Styrofoam poisoning.
The following day they drove me
McLoserstene and I redid the family's living room. Mr. McLoserstene scowled a lot and Mrs. McLoserstene had to be surgically removed from her votive candle collection and fake ivy. Even though we told them we do this for a living and were doing it for free, they started drinking heavily.
Because after all, isn't that what the holidays are all about?
End of chat.

ReplyDeleteFunny!
Least you had water.
Did you at least get to sleep with Dali to keep you warm?
ReplyDeleteFake food is weird. I have some but I still think it is weird.
I put sequins on all our fake food so I could tell it from the real stuff and thus avoid the possibility of styrofoam poisoning.
ReplyDeleteAnd is that a chamber pot on the left side of the third picture? Running water, nice view, facilities, friendly face washer and bed warmer - what more do you want?
"Honey, I don't want to just throw this out. Should we take it to Goodwill or Wayside Cafe?"
Bossy thought thanksgiving was all about Turkey leftovers that make the fridge smell like Farts.
ReplyDeletethe view is breathtaking!
ReplyDeleteseriously you slept outside?
Ah, LA traffic. It was like being home again, without the pain. Or the family. Actually, that's the same thing... ;)
ReplyDeleteThey sound like a lot of fun actually. I'd probably enjoy having them for neighbors. That table looked a bit worrisome. Like those tall stemmed things (they looked like oranges with cherries on top). I would worry that someone would knock them over.
ReplyDeletemickeys, they have 4 waterfalls in the backyard and they're all on timers.
ReplyDeletegm, I'm allergic to dogs! But I still love them and Dali is such a smarty.
jami, no chamber pots.
Bossy, it was that broccoli dish that you made, wasn't it?
plain jane, I slept in my own room, which McLoserstene generously gave up because her parents made her.
madmad, it took 3 hours to make a trip that normally is an hour and 40 minutes.
anne, those are candle holders. There was a pumpkin candle on top of each one.
The traffic in Waikiki was just AWFUL! It took 8 minutes instead of the usual 6 to get to my friend, Richard's house for turkey etc. Mele Kalikimaka! Don't hate me because I'm beautiful. Hate me because I live in Paradise!
