Georgie's Anecdotes
Normally, I cook for myself. But when my parents have something interesting, they offer it to me.
Me. "I think I'll finish those egg noodles. They should still be good, right? When did you give them to me?"
Mom. "Two days ago. You don't remember."
"No. I don't remember the days of food, just that it was good." (starts singing, parodying The Twelve Days of Christmas) "On the first day of November, my mother fed to me... I don't remember, but I know it was very good."
Both of us laugh.
Me. "I've been watching too much theatre."
Mom praised me, but I forget her exact words.

Occasionally, on Facebook, I would write funny things under the title Georgie's Anecdotes. So why not continue the tradition here?

Georgie's Anecdotes
My parents have been together for thirty-five years. They had a civil union in 2007 and were finally able to marry in 2013. Both times, my own excitement was contagious, to the point that they wondered if they or I were more excited! Today, both made me laugh. I wished Mom a happy wedding anniversary. She said she had forgotten and asked "how did you remember that?" I said "I always remember important things. Later, she spoke with Joanie, and she didn't even know today's date! Usually, she's the one to say it to Mom first. This year, I beat both of them!
