Dan and I enjoying the Christensen Reunion
Once Upon a Time (I had to start that way because this is as grim as any of Grimm's Fairy Tales) there was an older sister that went and spent her Spring Break with what family was available to her. Among those family members was her youngest brother, Dan. He is smart, full of stories, and completely dangerous to innocent older sisters.
For example, one evening I was feeling the need of a snack. So I looked in the pantry and discovered that the Good Morenings waffle cereal was almost gone. Since Dan was also in search of a snack, I went downstairs to get a new box. When I arrived back upstairs with my fresh box of cereal, Dan came out of nowhere and snatched it out of my hand. I thought to myself, "Huh, he must not have known about the other box." So I pull out my bowl, my spoon and get the old box out of the pantry. I open the box and am about to pour when *poof!* that box is snatched out of my hand as well... Watch out for that smart boy that looks all sweet and innocent, he may snatch 2 boxes of cereal right out of your hand!
Dan with Chewy, or rather, Chewy on Dan
Finally, as Chewy and I are about to depart from Payson Dan informs me, "You need to visit every Saturday from now on." Obviously I am flattered because he clearly wants to spend time with me. Then he goes on, "You need to come every Saturday to buy dog food because Chewy is staying here with me." Warm fuzzy feeling is gone. Not only did he have designs to steal my dog, but he also wants me to drive up every single week to buy food for that dog...
You have been warned. If you are ever in the presence of that little brother, beware! He may have designs on your cereal and your pets!
