One thanksgiving, I was pulling out my chair to sit when my brother yelled "hey mom get the shovel Mia's at the potatoes!" Well, we all had our chuckle, and then I said, "tell ya what, I only have to loose weight once to look fabulous, but youll keep pouring rogaine on that head forever!"
Everyone sucked in their breath and went all silent. My Mom finally said that was too mean M A R I A... You apologize this moment!
What's that about? He could ridicule me but I can give it back?
I was a size 1 when he stopped me from getting in the pool one day in front of all our friends. I said "what do you mean I'm not allowed in the water?"
He said, " well, haven't you been paying attention to the news? There's a drought this summer and if you get in there with those big ol thighs all the water will run out the top and we wont be able to refill the pool. Your unselfish sacrifice will make it so the rest of us can swim."
I'd love to get him back, but he looks great for his age, 44 and weight will never be is problem! Oh did I mention hes in a rock band, owns the family business (dad retired) and shows up on tv and the radio (local). I go to the bank and the tellers ask if it is true that hes my brother. Then the assume I'm the older one! NOT FAIR! (i'm 18months younger) I'm starting a rumor he's had work done!
