A picture of part of my family, the ones who still live at home anyway...
The whole setup of my family is a bit confusing, so I'll take a minute to explain things for you.
First off, who's in it, how did it come to be, why does it still exist?
Who's in it...
+ Jean
+ William
+ Thomas
+ John
+ Seana
How did it come to be...
At one time, my mother worked at some burger joint. This guy would come in on a very regular basis, just to chat with her. Under the pretense of ordering food. Ironicly, he ordered food every time. Something like 5-8 times a day. That would be my dad. Eventually they got together (and my dad lost some weight). Eloped and had kids. *boom*, simple. Course, my mothers mother didn't want them to get married at all, but who ever listens to their parents anyway?
Why does it still exist?
This is a question I've never understood the answer too. In many ways it just doesn't work, but it won't last forever. People eventually die ya know.
