Graham:
Hello from the minefield!

Graham:
Today’s random fact - kids in school would take bets on how spicy I could handle salsa. It’s only normal when you’re not in second grade known as the crazy ghost pepper kid.
Julia:
Why can I see that! Okay, mine in return is the funny T-shaped scar behind my knee from my brother’s old Chevy. That was the day we found out my knees were double jointed.
Julia:
I have another scar on my thumb from sewing pins shot from a staple gun.
Graham:
I’m sorry what?!
Julia:
Listen, growing up with an older brother is not for the weak!
Graham:
I guess I lucked out with my sister badgering me to play dress up becausemom was too drunk.
Julia:
Damn. I’m sorry.
Graham:
It’s good. Guess it builds character.
Julia:
Speaking of building character I will have you know your precious niece got a yellow note sent home from school.
Graham:
That’s impossible, Sarah’s perfect.
Julia:
Apparently she said a bad word in class.
Graham:
Oh, that. Yeah, that’s my girl.
Graham:
Got any hot plans tonight?
