So far so good

We stop and eat in a McDonald's at about nine A.M. As we sit down to eat I ask her some questions that a boyfriend should know.

"So, what are your sisters names?"

"Oldest sister is Marcy. She has three kids. Then there's Delilah, she's a widow. She has two kids. It's hard for her. She had to move back in with the rents. Then come the twins, Cagney and Lacey, and they don't appreciate any jokes about their names. My parents actually had no clue about the show. Then there's Sally. She's married but doesn't have any children yet. And Rebbecca is engaged and pregnant, her fiance is a Deputy. And then there's Stephanie. She got married last year, has a three month old."

"Who are you closest to?"

"Growing up I was closest to Marcy. She was so independent as a kid. She didn't hold with mom's ideas of where women should be, but she met Craig and fell in love, then fell in line. Now, it's Stephanie. We're closest in age, so we went through the same things."

"I see. Any hobbies they have? Any taboo subjects?"

"Delilah's husband should not be mentioned, she's still not over it. At all. Marcy and Craig are good together, but Delilah and Gary were together since elementary school...she feels like half a person. Only things holding her together are Gary Jr, and Melanie. Yes...she is named after me. I'm her godmother. She's almost over protective now. Even mom is very gentle with Delilah now. And of course now Cagney and Lacey jokes, unless you want a wooden spoon up your butt." She says with a twinkle in her eye.

"I see. Anything else I Should know?? Cousins or some such?" I ask, chowing down on my sausage McGriddle.
