The time I got called a "dumbass"

This whole thing started when I was at my family's annual Thanksgiving gathering. I'm the only person in my family who has an advanced degree in engineering. And we eat a lot of different foods. My mom, dad, brother and sister all all have degrees in business or healthcare. And I get a free bowl of ice cream every time someone brings a kebab to my table. I can't believe it's actually Thanksgiving today, it's my family day!

My dad and sister both work from home so I don't see a whole lot of the time. My mom works all the time so sometimes it can get a little lonely at times, but I'm happy to spend my time with the family. Thanksgiving has been a little rough recently so I have been spending a lot of time with family members and I've found my confidence and love growing with them.

I had a bunch of family members over the weekend who I didn't know about before but I found them all very funny, the older one brought up the line that if I was to make a deal with a demon it wouldn't be a bad deal. He told me that when the demon gives me a new job, I can keep his secret no matter what! He even brought up the fact that I'm in a restaurant. He's trying so hard to be funny, I'm loving it, but I'm also very serious, it's hard to be funny about serious topics when you're constantly constantly being serious. But I am loving the fact that everyone is having a great time, especially my grandma, who is celebrating her 69th bday this coming weekend. She's been telling me all about how much she appreciates my jokes and it's been so nice talking with her about my silly little ramblings.
