#3: 2 Months Old
#3: 2 Months Old
Hey Everyone,
b.good is now 2 months old and just like a 2-month old baby, b.good crys a lot, eats a lot, and keeps its parents up late into the night.
But, our little baby is showing progress everyday and we are both very proud parents. Most importantly, the baby hasn't inherited any of our unattractive physical features and looks to be growing into a beautiful, healthy, fast-food adult.
While we did have this baby together, the saying holds that "it takes a village to raise a child". Our village is pretty screwed up, but it's still a village and it's all our baby has.
We have Cremildo, the captain of the sandwich line, who nods his head "yes" to every question or comment we have and then blankly stares as if hypnotized by his own rhythmic nod. He often mistakes beans for steak, salad dressings for chicken, and insists on calling Tony, "Tommy". However, he is always moving which we think is good.
Then, there's Quecuto Manny, the night-time grill-man, whose only English is "good", "please", "me likey", "thank you, Jesus", and the universal symbol for happiness - the thumbs up. After making a great order of fries, he feels it necessary to scream out his own name. We have no idea what to make of this, but are happy to have a spiritual leader for our baby.
Next, there's Albeiro, an expert prep-man. Albeiro does not talk much and is very angry. He enjoys telling us that Wendy's is better than b.good and randomly yelling at suppliers for reasons neither of us understand. We actually think he hates us and when given the chance, will try to hurt us. However, he does a good job so we try to respect his personal space.
Hugo, another talented prep-man, rounds out this ferocious foursome. Speaking Spanish to us like we understand every word, he can go on for hours telling stories, telling jokes, and laughing at these jokes. All the while, he never realizes that our blank stares and the fact that we do not respond means that we have no idea what the hell he is talking about. He is strong though so we just let him tell his stories and smile.
Uncle Faris and Hugo recently had a 15 minute conversation about how to make the perfect burger (at least, that is what Uncle Faris was talking about). Neither realized that they never understood each other and somehow left laughing and even gave each other a hug. Cremildo shook his head in agreement (to something). Albeiro, threw a piece of steak at Hugo. Manny bleesed the conversation with a "Thank you, Jesus" in respect to the lenten season. We just shook our heads unable to comprehend what just happened.
So, with the help of our village, the b.good is growing, getting better, and learning new things everyday.
Uncle Faris is happy. Jon is happy. Anthony is happy. We think Cremildo, Hugo and Manny are happy. Albero is mad, but some people just hate.
