Day 4

Day 4: Your parents.

I love how none of these prompts provide any type of specificity. How could I possibly begin to narrow down this topic? Where do I begin? And what can I even say? I think it’s fair to say that my parents are fairly normal. Y’know, in the sense that they provide constant embarrassment in public places; are immature enough to laugh really hard at “that’s what she said” jokes, tease me the way a friend would, and all the while they can ground me for being stupid. They teach me, they support me, they make fun of me, they laugh at me, they laugh with me, and they occasionally borrow money.
