I was the only Wiccan in the family. And *they* have a weird sense of humor!
(The fact that the eldest son was studying 'the Scottish Play' may have fed
into it, too. But I think there was a good dose of "the only girl is gone -
let's get her!" in there, too. I got them back - sorted all the laundry by
color instead of by person/item for a week.)
