Okay.

I can’t remember your name, but your wife
(Sara? Tara?) calls you Bleshashuga when
you sneeze in front of company.

Her hair looks to have been lovingly
scavenged from a drainpipe.

Your smallest child isn’t as small as you’d
like, and so you do the only thing you
know—you call your mother to ask how
she is and hang up.

A strong chin is your best quality, and you
are always on time to work. 

You always come late to dinner with friends.
