What is this blog about? What am I writing it?

This blog will consist of humorous stories involving members of my family. The title of the blog refers to the first story that I will post.

This blog has two purposes. The first, and most important, is to entertain my family. The second is to develop my writing skills, particularly the ability to write quickly. I am in grad school, and writing and using my time efficiently are requirements for success. I enjoy writing, but I do not write efficiently. I spend too much time editing instead of writing. I am going to try to use this blog to work on this weakness by limiting my use of the backspace button when creating my posts. The result may be some sloppy writing, particularly in the beginning.

My goal is to write one post per week, but that is probably too ambitious.
