Striving For Mediocrity

Ramblings of a thirtysomething sometimes bitter single girl living in Southern California with her gay cat and crazy neighbors. Doing her damnedest to find one good man that won't drive her completely nuts.

Is it Mormon enough for ya?

Well, I survived the dreaded family get-togethers this weekend. First, I had the Mormon cousin's wedding reception, which really was just scary. My clever girlfriend sent me an email that said, "Mormons are almost as scary as the scientologists. Don't go back there, man." And she was right. I can't even tell you the degree of heebeejeebees I was feeling during this party (can it really be called a party if there is no music and not one drop of alcohol?). Those people exist in a Stepford-type world all their own, and that freaks me the fuck out. I mean, I was joking around with my sister and told her to shutup, and everyone around me stopped talking and stared at us like we were the crazy ones. Although, there was one funny moment when my non-Mormon uncle said to my sister and I, "Is it warm enough for ya?", and both my sister and I thought he said "is it Mormon enough for ya?". Hey, the laughs at this party were few and far between. I had to take them where I could get them.
