The only things I remember are sitting in our house in Maryland. it was me, my dad, and my nephew, Mo. 

We were talking about fishing, and my nephew (hellion #1) decided it would be fun to walk on my dad's neck and shoulders (Dad has a bad back). 

While he doing that, my mom was on the phone with Marsha (a woman she hasn't spoken to in years.) They were talking about the price of fish. 

I was in the next room, which somehow had turned into a lecture hall... most of the people I work with were there, including a girl I went to high school with, whom I don't really care for. 

My co-workers and I started a discussion about something (it wasn't fish) and I didn't want to hear anymore, so I got up to leave. as I was leaving this girl said something to me. I don't know what it was, because she sounded like Charlie Brown's teacher. I just know it wasn't nice. So I clocked her. She clocked me back, and I stumbled backwards... into a pool!

Next thing I knew I had a little teeny tiny (hotel sized) brown towel on my shoulders, and was sitting with my parents again. My nephew was still on my dad's shoulders, and you could see he was hurting, so I made him get down. 

I told him "You made him cry, you need to apologize" So, he leaned over and said "Sorry, Charlie." and I told him "That's not Charlie - Charlie's the dog... that's Opa."
