    That’s how it often is. I’m wondering if Cousin Nick will become a regular character . . .

    Best way to stay friendly w/ Rat is to keep conversation at that level.

    What I hate is when someone says, “Hey! Where have you been?” Like it’s your job to keep in touch with them. Like the phone doesn’t work in both directions.

    Rat was reasonably polite in that conversation. Surprising!

    With some relatives that is as close as one wants to get. “Talk to you soon” – yeah, RIGHT!

    Let’s get together (insert option here).

    - after the holidays

    - when things settle down

    - soon

    - next week (which never comes)

    - when hell freezes over

    I am the youngest of all my cousins, and lost touch with all of them years ago. Most are probably dead.
