Meet The Elder Chens

Fact: When my grandpa was my age, he was a father of 4.

One of my earliest blogs was about how my dad likes to watch Fear Factor. Well, it's still one of his favorite shows. As I write this, he is flipping between Fear Factor and Connie Chung Tonight. When one of the contestants used a curse word and it was bleeped, he laughed for like 5 minutes straight.

*Conversation I just had with my mom while making my lunch*

Mom: So do you get tired when you're at work?
Me: Yeah, sometimes.
Mom: Do you ever sleep?
Me: No, we're not allowed to sleep.
Mom: Wow... that must be tough. Are you allowed to chew gum?
Me: (puzzled but laughing) uhhh... yes
Mom: You should chew gum then.
Me: Okay.

Sometimes I wonder how I turned out to be such a cool person.
