Word

Dinner.  A noisy, messy affair with lots of good food and a lot of good conversation.  Unfortunately, there is also a lot of chaos and noise.  Did I mention the noise?

On this night in particular it was business as usual.  Logan sat laughing hysterically and uncontrollably at nothing.  Ethan tried desperately to get a word in edgewise while Justin interrupted at every opportunity to talk about reading his friend's diary.  As I gazed across the table, surveying the clan, I realized that Ashley and I had been stunned into silence.  Finally, Ethan gave up.
"Geez, this house is a circus!" he screamed, and got up to leave the table.
Kid, you just said a mouthful.
