100 Confessions: Family

(99) My family is kind of messed up. I make light of it. But occasionally on bad days, I spill all sorts of the ridiculous details. I've done this to acquaintances, employees, bartenders. I usually apologize afterwards for giving them intimate information they really have no interest in.

I have gotten better at it. At one point in a party scenario, someone began talking about their family and made the mistake of asking about my family background. I literally destroyed the conversation. Dead silence followed and no one knew how to restart it.

ho, ho, ho BOY did he loose that bet.
