Just this weekend, I finially saw that movie after being told what a classic it was, how incredibly deprived I am and how much culture I was missing.
Yeah right.
It was amusing in a very quirky, random, scary way. After seeing this movie, I was told by a completely unrelated speciman, that my blog made our family sound like The Royal Tennenbaums. Scary. I would like to think we are slightly less disfuncional.
It is now, that I should be drawing great analogies of Margot and Laura, but really, I don't have it in me this morning to insult my siblings that greatly. (Since there was three children, I would be conveniently left out.)
I could see us chopping off each other's fingers though.
as long as i can be the filthy-rich business mongul kid, i'm happy.
If your going to be the business mongul child, you also need to have a pair of children that nips at your heels in matching outfits.
somebody's gotta be the tennis player, wear the headband all the time.
wonder what my family looks like, or looked like back in the day? always hoped for huxtables, or at least good times. i keep telling my kids we're the incredibles, and mom & i can't reveal our secret identities. they're not buying it.
I think I need to watch this movie so I know with whom I am being compared. Should I be offended? I mean, in the past I have been:
Jo in Little WomenDragon in ShrekThe Giant in The Princess BrideSo I'm not sure if Margot is a good thing.
It's not. She's a freaky bisexual smoker with a chopped off finger.
Hey, Sarah...
I resemble that completely unrelated specimen....and I meant no offense in the least...I meant that you sounded like you had a really talented family (that was the purpose of the word "benign" as a modifier, but I don't think the meaning came through very well:):):)...
I had a gifted teacher in junior high who seemed to have the dysfunctional part of that family down with much less talent:)...and it was joy, let me tell you, to have him bring his craziness into my life every morning at 8AM:):):)...
Your family, on the other hand, seems like a really tight bunch of talented folks (if I got the jist of your blog right:)...that was just my impression:)...
I thought Margot was the coolest, by the way...I don't care how many or few fingers she mangaged to keep ahold of...
Adios, ese...
