Mostly alcoholics in my family(Irish and Swedish heavy drinkers) so the Thanksgiving turkey usually burns in the oven.
One year two of the fireman actually stayed for dinner to insure that the fire was completely out and would not be 'rekindled' by the burnt kitchen's inebriated inhabitants.
Nowadays when the cousins all gather for holiday activities no one drinks too much and some of us claim that none of us are alcoholics because alcoholism skips generations, but proceeds on to the next. Any agreements with that?
As sons and daughters of extreme alcoholics we have some unbelievable stories to tell, some funny but most very fook'd up, so we laff and cry a lot when we gather together over the holidays and talk story of holidays gone by and our drunken relatives when they gather together to celebrate the art of excessive drinking.
We miss them though.
Any alcoholics in this GetBig gang?
