Setting: at a family member's house party discussing this blog; someone decides to do a dramatic reading of a post, choosing the one where mom calls me from Spain to tell me about dad and how she wanted to kill him...
Someone to everyone: "Mom to Me: "Kristen, I am going to kill him."
Me to Mom: "Who? And why are you whispering?"
Mom to Me: "Daddy. He thinks he's dying because he has a cough"
Mom to someone: "Stop reading it! Be quiet!"
Dad to Mom: "You called Kristen when I was in the shower?"
Mom to Dad: "No."
Me to Mom: "Ma!"
Mom to Dad: "She's lying. Don't listen."
Family member: "Don't stop reading! This is hilarious!"
Family member 2: "Pete, you really didn't know Diane called Kristen?"
Dad to Family: "No!"
Dad to Mom: "Very nice. So this is what you do when I'm not around? Make fun of me? I had a cough!"
Mom to Me: "I'm going to kill you Kristen!"
Dad to Mom: "I'm going to start my own blog!"
Me to Dad: "You don't even know what a blog is!"
Note to readers: parents did not divorce as a result of the blog posting, but parents were not happy. Now I know how Harriet the Spy felt.
