The mango: is there nothing it can't do?
Mow the lawn.
Well, *yeah.* That's why we have Ugli fruit.
You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Cocoa and popcorn have been achieved, and life is getting better.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
No cocoa, popcorn, or mango chips here. However, bread is on its final rise and pork is brining.

Why you gotta be such an overachiever, amych? You make the rest of us look bad.

Good to hear, Jesse.
My family is a very easy form of crazy. The kind that is fun to be around though there are probably lots of injokes to be explained, and in the extended family, there is lots of material for fond eyerolls.
I talk to my parents once a week, at least. Usually sundays. I used to talk to my brother that frequently, but with his crazy grad school hours and family obligations it is less frequent. This all is a habit that goes back a ways. Mom & Dad used to talk to their parents at least once a week when they were alive. Mom talks to at least one of her siblings about once a month.

I am glad that I am not alone in thinking that food that requires more prep than a trip to the deli is too much to hope for. Especially on a Friday.
I've had a Sunday parental phone call since I went to college -- that was actually from the advice book too, I think.

Does it help if I say that I've eaten dry cereal out of the box while sitting at the computer for the last two nights? Trying to cook and eat real food more often is a thing for me (but I won't get boring about it here).

Yes, yes it does. Really, I only mock your Actual Good Home-Made Grownup Food out of jealousy.
