How I wish that were true! But, Alas!

No kidding. Especially in my family. 'No communication' is absoulutely the correct phrase for it! Although I don't know what we'd talk about, we're all so different from each other that I'm not sure that we have much in common. Then again . . . how would we know, since we don't spend any time trying to find out about each other?

Sad, isn't it?
