Top Twelve Reasons to Party at Club 2718
1. Mike carrying Daphne upstairs like a newborn baby.
2. Jan announcing that Lauro/Eepa was coming to the party just because he was hungry.
3. Sandra jacking up Jaksgrind.
4. Eddie C./Spagone leaving the party 50 times.
5. Sharla asking Poopie what she was planning to wear to the party and Poopie answering, "probably my cubs shirt."
6. Al A. adding an athletic touch to all the parties even when it isn't necessary...or appropriate.
7. Mike's two cop friends blocking the most important elements of the kitchen-- the refrigerator and the garbage can... for hours.
8. Liza announcing her booty call...and Sam calling her out about Angel Sotomeyer.
9. Caesar spilling his whole drink while doing the percolator.
10. The Mexican neighbors hitting a pinata at 1am.
11. Lauro/Eepa leaving the party only to be found doing shots with Zack in the kitchen 15 minutes later.
12. Jan cracking under the interrogation of Inspector Clouseau...you know who you are!!

Good Thinkin' Al!
Although I'm sure people miss Adam (I'll get back to you on that one) it'd be a great injustice to include Al C. on a list filled with so many hooligans and scoundrels. He deserves to have his own post. It's not that we don't understand what Al C. brings to the table, it's that we cannot even begin to grasp it. His signature smirk at all things absurd and obnoxious is a reminder that this family is indeed "funny." Although we would have loved to see him at Mikey's housewarming party we shouldn't have really expected him to be there. So the fault lies within each of us. Do you really think those signature dance moves aren't the result of hours of practice? Stop kidding yourself.
We Are Family
OK, the Adam we know and love is not missing, just M.I.A. relative to the recent family parties. I think I speak for all of us when I say that we'd like to see him around more often. He doesn't realize that he adds a little something to every party...and he is always missed. :)Here are some of the roles we as a family play and the elements we bring to each party.
The "We Are Family" List
Al A. - Provides the sports element (even when it's not appropriate but the kids love it.) Also occasionally throws in the unnecessary Laura gropes/winks that no one wants to see.
Laura - Provides the curly pony tail and the killer disco dance moves that begin with her elbows and end with the big hand claps. I also must mention the pasta salad. (It's only Italian dressing people!) lol
Alexis - I like to think I provide some of the humor, pointing out every one's debacles.
Adam - Lee Lee's sports man. He's the football/softball/video game king who requires $250,000 for an appearance.
Jan - Provides the jello (graham crusted or not) and the tortellini pasta salad. Yum. She's also great for a line dance and a funny story about the ChiPubLib.
Sharla - Provides the glamour. Always the bell of the ball in the highest of heels. Also makes great potato salad.
Mikey - The new provider of a killer party house. Although, we couldn't figure out where to put the tv. I've been thinking about it all weekend!
Barb - Is the queen of the Cha Cha Slide, Eli's cheesecakes and funky shoes that Jan secretly wants to steal.
Marty - Is the world traveler and the innovative dresser. His unique tees, colorful kicks and metro glasses always have us wondering what's so awesome about him. It's something, we just can't quite put our finger on it.
Sandra - Diva of crab dip. She's also great on the dance floor, with or without Chico.
Sam - Provides the house/yard/city block with killer beats. Uh oh, work it...and the beat goes on.
Jaime - Makes every woman in the family feel "special."
Zack - Gives everyone hope that the CTA is still alive and well. (He's usually has cool shirts and shoes too).
Ruthy - Makes Alexis feel like she has to go on a diet.
Andrew, Jacob, Sophia, Mateo & Ariel - These 5 are great for a laugh and give great hugs.
Grandpa Paul - The patriarch of the family who adds the "Oooh is this hot/good/sweet." Tells great stories about his clubbing and knows how to shake his groove thang.
Those are my initial thoughts when assessing our roles. Feel free to add any new ones or to comment on mine!
Love you all.
