secret: i’ve seen pieces of “goodfellas” about 4 million times before, never actually finishing it. two days ago, for the first time ever, i saw the whole thing! it’s so, so sad how that reminds me so much of my life (sans the cocaine, but the people in pittsburgh is real). my mom’s mom was 100% irish (not jewish, which strays a little from the storyline, but still) and married my 100% italian grandfather. they actually had to elope because both sides of their family were mad about their relationship. i kind of hope that happens to me? maybe? just a little?

this is my nan and pop (who i have talked about before). he is 100% sicilian so he could definitely be “made,” if you catch my drift (and no, i dont mean the mtv show. hurr durrr). nan is mostly irish. everything went over smoothly for them. im lucky theyre not senile grandparents. nan and i went coat shopping the other day and i couldn’t keep up. although, pop had no idea i wasn’t 21, kind of leading me to believe he might be a wiiiiitle bit doddery.
