if fallopian tube jokes frighten you, you best be glad that this is the internet and not real life.

My parents are coming this weekend!
Here is a picture of them in my room last year, a picture which has never seen the light of day until now. I love it, though. They’re so relaxed.
Multi-tasking at multi-million times hyperspeed is the status quo in my family. My dad, an internal medicine doctor, takes such long strides that my mom has to take two hop-steps to keep up. My sister is an EMT-blogger-hardworking MIT premed student-dancer-taekwondo fighter-social crazy-baker supreme, and my mom has shifted from running our lives and my dad’s office to running a heartscan center - ask her to talk about it and she might never stop. But when my family actually slows down and relaxes together, usually during Sunday brunch or with some other delicious delicious food, it makes for some of the best times I could ever wish for.
Because my family’s actually also CRAZY.
(on an unrelated note, my sister and I have both met Michel Gondry, but on completely separate occasions. Unfortunately, he was more funny when he met her. Typical.)
