What they said, Aims. And fwiw, the way my parents dealt with my lily-white hometown was to get me into summer activities and camps that were highly diverse (socioeconomically, racially, and ethnically) so that I began to see people of various colors and backgrounds as "normal." It took some time, but it did wonders for my perception of who was in the world and my realization that "they" (whichever category you wanted to pick) were not a monolithic group who would judge me. Those early lessons are the only reason that I managed to leave for college with relationships beyond the confines of a white, upper middle class town.
ETA: Yay job, MM!!

vw - I do, if you're talking about eating it, not wearing it? (though I'm good at that too)

Yeah. It's for eating. It's for the big party tomorrow night.

"different" folks
I have to say, I do have a little quibble with parents who use this vocabulary with the kids without elaboration. I know it's almost impossible to avoid, but I feel like if they tell the kid I'm "different" there's an implied "different from normal" and the short hand ends up being categories of normal/not normal. So I love to hear the parent say something like, "look at all the people in the store, almost no one is the exact same height! Everyone is different!"
I hope that makes sense.
Sox, how did your mom react to Iris telling her she was going to die soon?

Simple is best...
Chop up some Tomatoes, Onions, Seranno/Jalepeno peppers to taste and add some lime and salt. Mash up your Avocado and add the former and mix it in. I don't have any real proportions since I usually kinda wing it. But then again, I'm half Mexican and that half never writes down recipes.

Hey! My post disappeared when I hit post!
They wanna keep me! Benes, vacation...a JOB!
Yay, MM.
When I make guacamole I usually use 3-4 avocado, 1-2 limes depending on size, a little chopped onion, and some salt and pepper. Very simple.
