A KFC Christmas

During the Christmas season, as at any time, communication is important.

Let me take you through yesterday's events.

I was with my wife, not near my computer or phone. Suddenly my sister shows up at the door. Didn't I know that my dad, sister, and brother-in-law were coming over for a Christmas feast today?

I thought it was actually on Christmas!

So we wait for Dad, who was coming by bus, and was arriving at 11:30.

He showed up at 1:00, saying that he thought he had to leave at 11:30.

So the feast is gotten at KFC.

Chicken, corn, fries, coleslaw, 7-Up.

But no cutlery.

Or plates.

Sister has meltdown when none of the three convenience stores visited have plates.

Brother in law suggests cups.

Cups are gotten.

Three-times folded paper towels substitute for plates.
I carry leftover chicken home at my feet.

Leftover pop at my back, stuffed down my T-shirt.

Can't wait till next year!

Merry Christmas everyone!
