My fam said funny things, which I kept track of because I like to write down good quotes. Here are some highlights:

Me: Mom, look at all your Facebook messages!
Mom (covers computer screen): UH. PRIVATE!
(yes, my mom is on Facebook and we just became friends. She wasn’t too subtle about me needing to friend her. Watch what you say on my wall!)

Sister: The reason I moved to San Diego was because I got locked out of my car in a snowstorm.
Mom: I didn’t know that…

Dad about 6-month old Zoe, who is going to puppy school: You have to invite her up on your lap.
Me: That’s like vampires when you have to invite them into your home.
Dad: Zoe, I’m inviting you over here. Jacky is not.

Sister explaining why she forgot something: My mind is a galaxy.

Me, turning up radio for Miley Cyrus song
Mom: How old are you again? 11? 12?

Grandpa to waitress after we’d been ignored: I’m going to trip you if you don’t get over here.

Mom to barking dogs as she lets them in the backyard: Go tell your friends all about it.

Sister: I get bored if I don’t take a nap.
