Random Family Ancedote:

Note: My mom gives really bad instructions and my aunt follows instructions really badly. I should not be surprised.

My aunt and her family are going camping over the holiday, and she borrowed this canopy thing that we have to take with them. She was trying to make sure that she could put it together before they left, so she wouldn't have to call us long distance to get help. I was in the kitchen making lemonade and listening to my mom give her instructions over the phone. After 45 minutes of which poles to put where, an explanation of 'what the heck' a gable is, and the occasional, "You should probably bring duct tape", Mom says, "So does it look like a tent? What do you mean you don't know? Is it standing up by itself? The legs are WHAT?"

Which is when she preceded to fall out of her chair laughing. After promising my aunt that one of us would be over later to help her, she finally hung up. They had apparently put it together upside down and when it became obvious that the legs were not suppose to be sticking up in the air like that, they tried to turn it over. And the whole thing came apart and collapsed.

My mom is still laughing about it. Actually, so am I. ;)
