Day Twelve

"You have a flair for adding a fanciful dimension to any story."

Yeah...I think that comes from my ability to tell half the truth and not the whole truth and a knack for exaggeration...At least when I am telling stories. For example, when I introduce my family. I have two uncles in prison, my papa and another uncle "transport goods across interstate lines", another uncle stakes things out, and people call my dad when they want to get rid of people. Sound like a shady family? Those two uncles in prison? They're prison guards. My papa and the other uncle? Truckers. My other uncle? A surveyor. My dad? A controller and HR Director. He fires people when called upon to do so. That's the way I usually introduce my family to others, for example, the missionaries I write that do not know my family. One Elder wrote me back expressing that he thought my dad sounded like Bourne. It made me laugh! I also recently went to the doctor where I found out that I had to have a surgery done where part of my left buttock would be removed ASAP. I was out for a day and am still recovering. The part of my body that was cut out from me is undergoing research from a pathologist to see if I have cancer. I should hear back from them next week. It's quite entertaining to watch people's reactions! Please don't get me wrong, I know when to be serious and I know when it's okay to be funny.
