My fondest Thanksgiving memory goes like this:
Grandma's dinner table. Cloth napkins. I'm wearing a tie and blue corduroys that havent fit for at least a year. Brussel sprouts. Creamed spinach. My mother's white-line stare would put a long-haul trucker to shame.
Uncle Pete sits down at the table. Uncle Pete lives in a different world. Were strictly rural; he comes from mystery, traveling from city to city, living a life or urban wealth and sophistication of which I can only dream. An Outsider.
The table is awkward and silent, family tension pulled into a spider web of angst and future therapy.
Please pass the rolls.
