families

A few nights ago I watched a family walk into a Chinese place

and I felt sad because I don't have a family here.

I miss going places with my family

eating together, playing cards.

Just riding in the car.

Everywhere you go you need some sort of a family.

I have friends here who have created their own

family away from family

And I want that too.

Soon Patrick and I will become a family

but sometimes you need more than two.

Roomie and I talked about starting frequent "family dinnr" nights

That would be so nice.
There's just something about eating together,
you know?

But how do you pick a family?

Who should eat with us?

That's the nice thing about real family

you are stuck with them, they aren't chosen.
