and "you need more sun" was code for "i like making fun of you but srsly come meet my parents again so you can be in the big family portrait we're takin' this year"
(yes yes i am. what time is go home? COME HOME AND CHAT.)
in seventy years some great-grandkid will inherit a copy of that picture and spend months figuring out who the big dark-haired guy trying to hide in the back row is, and whether the little blond guy is really holding his hand
(i gots a pile of paper to finish entering and then it is go home tiem. *sigh*)
i was thinking it would be funny if "that time dan saved the day" was like, somehow jim gets stuck with a very small child and has no idea what to do despite having such a huge family and for some reason *dan* knows - but I was thinking that it is probably unlikely. *sigh*
still. dan+jim+baby=d'aww.
(grandpa, who's that? that's my uncle jimbo. why's he holding that guy's hand? *old guy goes o_O, rubs eyes, puts on reading glasses. cleans them. has absolutely no explanation.*)
(Unless Grandpa is Rosie's Jim, who probably saw quite a bit of them too as time went by, and got the whole "Dan is Uncle Jimbo's friend" speech after catchin' Jim puttin' Dan in a compromisin' position {which mortified Dan to the point that he seriously considered sneaking out the window and pretending he died}, and suddenly had the lightbulb go on in the middle '60s after homosexuality became more visible due to the rise of the hippie Free Love movement, and called his mother and said "Ma, is Uncle Jimbo queer?", and Rosie snorted and said "Honey, you're only just realizing it?")
(HAHAHA that happened to my mom once. she asked my grandpa if her cousin was gay, and he just looked at her and said "he used to play *house* with you girls."
he brought his boyfriend along when he came to visit and I knew right away that he was gay. HELLO THIS IS MY FRIEND RICARDO - i just about *died*)
